JET NATURAL STRAW CHECKERED HAT
Shop the JET NATURAL STRAW CHECKERED HATThe Jet Natural Straw Checkered Hat channels modern western ease — a wide-brim checkered straw silhouette finished with a jet cord that ties beneath the chin or drapes across the shoulder. Five-inch crown, four-and-a-half-inch brim, signature logo charm, designed to anchor every warm-weather look with quiet drama.
10 Ways to Wear It
- Layer it over a crisp white tee, vintage straight-leg denim, and a tonal jet belt — let the checkered straw be the focal point with small gold huggies and a single layered pendant.
- Wear with a flowy black linen maxi, oversized sunglasses, and a stacked jet bangle stack — keep the cord tied loosely under the chin for a polished, directional feel.
- Style with an ivory slip dress, sculptural gold earrings, and a sleek low bun — let the wide brim frame the face and skip the necklace entirely for proportion.
- Pair with a tailored cream blazer, straight white jeans, and a thin metallic belt — the checkered straw softens the suiting while small stud earrings keep the look refined.
- Drape the jet cord across one shoulder over a black bodysuit and high-rise wide-leg trousers — add a chunky gold chain link necklace and oversized square sunglasses for modern western drama.
- Wear it with a floral midi dress, a silk scarf knotted at the neck, and delicate gold studs — let the straw texture and jet trim play against the print.
- Style with a one-shoulder swimsuit, oversized black shirt worn open, and slides — small gold hoops and a stack of slim bangles complete the poolside-to-lunch transition.
- Pair with a chunky cream knit, leather leggings, and ankle boots — the wide brim adds softness while statement jet drop earrings pick up the cord detail.
- Layer over a tiered prairie dress in soft white, woven raffia clutch, and minimalist gold jewelry — let the checkered pattern be the storytelling piece.
- Wear with a monochrome camel look — cashmere tee, tailored trousers, tonal loafers — and let the hat and a single bold signet ring carry the entire outfit.

How to Style It With Your Hair
Hair DownWear down with loose, natural waves — the four-and-a-half-inch brim frames the face and the jet cord can drape across one shoulder to break up the length.
PonytailPull hair into a sleek low ponytail at the nape so the five-inch crown sits cleanly — wrap a thin strand of hair around the elastic for polish.
Half-UpTwist the front sections back and pin, leaving the lengths flowing — keeps hair off the face beneath the wide brim and lets the checkered pattern shine.
BunStyle a low, slightly undone chignon at the nape — the crown height holds the shape beautifully and the jet cord can be tied beneath the chin for a bohemian finish.

Styling Tips
- Tie the jet cord beneath the chin to define the jawline and add western polish; let it drape over one shoulder for a more relaxed, undone moment.
- Keep jewelry weight below the shoulders — bold earrings, layered necklaces, or stacked bangles — so the wide brim stays the focal proportion of the look.
- Pair with textures that contrast the woven straw, like silk slip dresses, crisp poplin, or fine cashmere, to make the checkered pattern read more elevated.
