Fashion for Your Skin!
The Chief Blonde was sent several great hats to review from Wallaroo, here she is wearing the Wallaroo Nina ($52). She is also wearing Nine West Golan Espedrilles (old, similar), Endless Rose Varsity Sweater (sold out, ), and Memory Necklace. Lipstick: Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in “Call the Shots” ($18).
My entire life I have had to wear hats. I have very fair skin and a hat is not an option, it’s a must. My first job was working at a U-pick Strawberry farm and all day was spent in the sun directing pickers in the strawberry fields. We were relegated to wearing the farm’s baseball hats, so the U-pickers could easily spot us in the field. Let me tell you, for my fair skin, the small brim of a ball cap was NOT adequate.
When I choose hats these days, I most often gravitate to one with a wide brim like this Wallaroo Nina. The 4 1/2″ brim protects both my face and neck from the sun and I certainly look and feel fashionably wearing it. What I love is that there is an internal drawstring that I can adjust ensure the hat fits. This hat is made from Raffia which I always find to be the coolest material for hats, plus it has this fabulous crochet weave that makes very unique from any other wide brim hat I own.
I appreciate year round sun protection that looks as good from the front as it does from the back.
Wallaroo Tahiti
For a completely different kind of Wallaroo hat for women,check out this Wallaroo Tahiti ($52). Perfect to wear in the city or around town, this darling raffia fedora will have you turning heads at any restaurant or show in town.

I love the “Celeste” because it has a wide brim and looks stylish!
I like the Gigi hat with the polka dots!
I would buy the Julia hat to wear to the Kentucky Derby
I absolutely love the Catalina Cowboy hat. It is really cute and would come in handy when I’m working outside.
The hat most like is the Tahiti Cowboy hat. It fits my style and would go great with my wardrobe. I really love the look of this hat!
I like the Julia hat for my mom.
I think my wife would love the catalina style for sure.
I like the Breton hat in gray and white. I like the shape and the curled brim.
I’m from Louisville, Ky. and we dress up our hats real pretty for the Kentucky Derby and the Celeste would leave me lots of brim to decorate and add ribbons
The Explorer
If I chose a hat, it would be the Celeste. The reason why is because it would match with anything and I really like the big brim. So, I would have really good sun protection. Thank you for offering this fantastic giveaway!
So many cute hats and so many colors to choose from!!!! 🙂 I really like the Victoria because of all the color choices! I think I’d get the Cranberry color… but it’s so hard to choose! I also like the Nina because of the wider brim. I like a lot of shade in my hats 🙂
I’m loving the Napa, the Nina and the Stella. These three fit my personality best. (ツ)
I really like the style of the Naples hat.
I like the Celeste hat. It is simple, natural colored and a style to flatter my face.
I would like the black Victoria Fedora for my beautiful friend Amanda who loves hats!!!
I’d like the Julia….it looks like something out of a movie…if I own this hat surely I will be invited to a lovely picnic in the countryside!
I like the Nina Hat. One thing I like about it is that it’s a good one for keeping the sun off the face & neck & has a drawstring for adjusting the size. Regular ones always seem to be to large for me. Thanks for the giveaway.
I’d like the Catalina Cowboy hat.
Cowboy hats are my fave to wear and I like the design of the ones on their site. Thanks.

I like the Celeste and the Nina. I walk on my breaks and after work. I try to walk in the shade, but sometimes the route I walk does not have shade.
