June Earthy Style Picks "Project Hats"




Why hats?

Ozone layer depletion decreases our atmosphere’s natural protection from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays.   Understanding these risks and taking a few sensible precautions will help you enjoy the sun while lowering your chances of sun-related health problems.

Did You Know?
Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun and from tanning beds is classified as a human carcinogen by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the World Health Organization.
  • Skin cancer (melanoma and nonmelanoma that dosnt sound like fun!)
  • Premature aging of the skin and other skin problems (ummmm no thanks!)
  • Cataracts and other eye damage
  • Immune system suppression

 It's no secret that harmful rays rapidly increase the aging process of your precious skin, resulting in visible sun-damage and in many cases one form or another of skin cancer. When exposure to the midday sun is unavoidable, wearing protective clothing such as a hat and using an effective sunscreen are especially important. The FDA advises that "for added protection from the sun wear a wide-brimmed hat to protect your head and face."

Sun screen and hats daily are my regimen!  I think sometimes its hard to find hats that are cute, but then I think wrinkled skin or silly hat!  And I pick silly hat!  This months earthy style picks are all hat themed!  All items are cruelty free, organic, fair trade, or upcycled and vintage!  

























If any looks catch your eye, message me and I will connect you with the designer or seller!
Choose earthy styles!
Tread Lightly!
