I need a hat for our September trip. I don't want anything too hot, and I will want to be able to put it in my bag when not wearing it. A full brim is preferred. Any suggestions?? I had a cute bucket type hat from WDW but it shrunk when I washed it, so now it's perfect for DD!

Try Pinterest? Some hats actually have Blocking properties now!
I honestly find hats just so hot on my head. ( sunscreen a must! )
Good luck!

There are many different options of these kinds of hats. They are cute and they roll up and fit in your bag.

I second this - I have this with gold straw and a navy trim and I got it specifically because I wear my hair in a big ponytail or bun that doesn't fit under normal hats.

It looks a bit silly with my giant ponytail sticking up over it, but I gotta say, works great.

Last time I was in the parks I saw them selling the exact same hat but with a little Mickey on it.

Best hat out there for keeping your head cool, sun out of your eyes and off your skin. Rolls up and stores safely and comfortably in a pocket.

I own 3 of them!

When I went in Aug. '14, I used a sun visor that slipped on my sunglasses. Small enough to slip in my bag when I didn't need it. I don't like hats so it worked great for me. http://www.vizini.com/ This is similar to the one I had. I even hotglued a cute little Mickey on it
