“I love tulips better than any other spring flower; they are the embodiment of alert cheerfulness and tidy grace, and next to a hyacinth look like a wholesome, freshly tubbed young girl beside a stout lady whose every movement weighs down the air with patchouli. Their faint, delicate scent is refinement itself; and is there anything in the world more charming than the sprightly way they hold up their little faces to the sun.” – Elizabeth von Arnim

Sarah Bray Bermuda's Sun Hats

Former fashion and decor writer and editor, Sarah Bray made a bold change to pursue her passion and live by her values. Just before Covid, she moved from New York to the mid-Atlantic island of Bermuda and launched her sun hat brand.

All lovingly made from antique, vintage, recycled and biodegradable materials, her designs are both becoming and eco-friendly! Shipping worldwide, she delights women and little girls alike. She currently offers two four different shapes for children. All come with several ribbons to switch up looks.

Sarah’s journey is an inspiring one and a great reminder of how beautiful change can be! We could not resist asking her a few questions :
