Woman's Hat for Boxster
What is a good style of hat for a woman to ride in a Boxster with. After my wife's first top down ride she asked "What kind of hat should I get?"

Scarf and sunglasses. Classic, timeless look, won't blow off, and no hat hair when she removes the scarf.

Best hat is the wind screen.
Do you all not have those (asking because I'm wondering, not being snarky)?
I have pretty long hair, and I don't use a hat or anything and it's only a little mussed, not a big deal.

My wife wears either a ball cap or scarf depending on whether the event we are heading to is sporty or elegant. She usually prefers to take the Lex though because racing seats are primitive and difficult to exit gracefully without pulling a "Brittany Spears". Minor wife tossing has also occurred due to irrational exuberance when heading through the canyons.

I have the wind screen and even with that speeds above 45 mess up the wife's hair. 
She loves the hardtop. Haha.

My gf puts her long hair up with 2 clips when the top's down. She loves riding in the convertible.
