If you&#8217;re like me, there&#8217;s only one thing on your mind&nbsp;\u2014&nbsp;getting outdoors&nbsp;as soon as possible&nbsp;to soak up the season of rejuvenation.&nbsp;But before you dash outside for a little rest and relaxation on the lawn, by the beach or in the countryside, don&#8217;t forget to bring some&nbsp;protection from all those rays. As you start to stock up on sunscreen this month, consider the shade&nbsp;\u2014&nbsp;and style&nbsp;\u2014&nbsp;you&#8217;d gain from supplementing a few sprays of the ol&#8217; SPF with the spring hat you have to have: the straw boater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The hottest spring hat, priced right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>European-inspired accessories suit this time of year perfectly. And, it seems the fashion gods have decided a little Brigitte Bardot-esque chapeau is&nbsp;the&nbsp;season&#8217;s must-have. Straw boaters are&nbsp;cropping up on all of our favorite sites. Even better, they&#8217;re priced right for budget fashionistas. Consider yourself warned: you&#8217;re gonna want at least a couple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically crafted from woven straw and complete with a banded crown, the straw boater in its classic form is the ultimate topper for achieving envious cool-girl ease. And in its more creatively modern options? The results are even more chic. Team one up with your trusty tee and jeans for casual outings, or pair it with a&nbsp;simple linen sundress for more special occasions. &nbsp;You&#8217;ll&nbsp;be sitting pretty through everything on the calendar all season long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The classic straw boater<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"479\" height=\"336\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/1-strawboater.png\" alt=\"Straw boater hat\" class=\"wp-image-121551\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/1-strawboater.png 479w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/1-strawboater-300x210.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 479px) 100vw, 479px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/sovrn.co\/7lc4acx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Women&#8217;s Packable Boater Hat, $13, Target<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><g id=\"wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\" fill=\"none\" clip-path=\"url(#clip0_31_188)\">\r\n                            <path d=\"M9.16724 14.8891L20.1672 3.88908\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\r\n                            <path d=\"M13.4497 3.53554L20.5208 3.53554L20.5208 10.6066\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\r\n                            <path d=\"M17.5 13.5L17.5 16.26C17.5 17.4179 17.5 17.9968 17.2675 18.4359C17.0799 18.7902 16.7902 19.0799 16.4359 19.2675C15.9968 19.5 15.4179 19.5 14.26 19.5L7.74 19.5C6.58213 19.5 6.0032 19.5 5.56414 19.2675C5.20983 19.0799 4.92007 18.7902 4.73247 18.4359C4.5 17.9968 4.5 17.4179 4.5 16.26L4.5 9.74C4.5 8.58213 4.5 8.0032 4.73247 7.56414C4.92007 7.20983 5.20982 6.92007 5.56414 6.73247C6.0032 6.5 6.58213 6.5 7.74 6.5L11 6.5\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\r\n                        <\/g>\r\n                        <defs>\r\n                            <clipPath id=\"clip0_31_188\">\r\n                                <rect fill=\"white\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\"\/>\r\n                            <\/clipPath>\r\n                        <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The stiff brim of this classic&nbsp;boater is accented by the traditional black band for day-in and day-out wear.
