Hailey Bieber Convinced Me to Wear Cowboy Hats All Summer

There's no question: Hailey Bieber is that girl. You prob didn't need me to tell you that. The model-turned-businesswoman just casually sold Rhode Beauty for a $1 billion and graced the cover of Vogue in the span of, like, five minutes. It's only right she take a little time for some R&R (and a poolside bevvy).
"Lemon drop martinis all summer long 👍🍋🍸," Hailey captioned a carousel of pics from vacay. And while there's a lot to unpack from the post (including, ahem, the original caption), I'm still stuck on her beachside look—aka the bikini and cowboy hat combo that's sorta becoming her signature. She finished off the 'fit with bold gold hoop earrings and a black bolero cover-up.
It's hardly the first time our girl has stepped out in the beachy western-inspired style. Just last year, she paired her fire hydrant red swimwear with a straw version from Lack of Color. Her besties Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid have similarly adopted cowboy hats as a beach accessory—and it's enough to convince me of its status as the it style of the season.
While I wasn't able to track down Hailey's exact hat from her latest Insta, a quick Amazon search revealed options that look just—if not, exactly—like hers. Take this $25 style, which is crafted from a high-quality suede-like fabric and comes in additional shades if you aren't looking to copy-paste Hailey's all-black look.
"Howdy, ma'am.... I feel like a real cowboy when I put this on," one shopper said. "I like the soft velvety feel of it. The size is easily adjusted with a little string inside. "
There are beachier picks too, just like the Hailey's straw hat from last summer. While her style sold out (obvi), there's a similar iteration from the same brand that was practically primed for the pool. The Seashells Cowboy Hat has a more casual woven design with seashell charms and a pinched crown.
Summer plans, you ask? Sipping beachside lemon drops in a cowboy hat—while manifesting my own billion dollar deal.
