A few things we can expect from a Harry Styles outfit: his beloved blue chore coat from The Row, reminiscent of one Paddington Bear; a pair of thick, sepia lensed Jacques Marie Mage aviators, well-worn cream lace-up Vans, and his ride-or-die wired headphones (blasting HS4, we hope? Harry? Harry???).

All of those elements were present in Styles’s latest outfit, worn for a stroll around London’s Hampstead Heath. The rest of the look included a white graphic tee that read “Anxiety Has Many Faces But There Is Only One Xanax,” a pair of faded blue straight-legged jeans cinched with a slim black belt, and a banana yellow David Hockney tote from the artist’s exhibit “Drawing From Life,” which included a portrait of Styles.

Perhaps the most noteworthy styling choice was the singer’s brown straw bucket hat. While Styles is no stranger to the silhouette, he’s been far more partial to the baseball cap lately. But after the Oasis reunion tour’s Wembley Stadium homecoming marked summer’s unofficial crescendo, the bucket hat feels bigger than ever. While he eschewed Liam Gallagher’s Kangol for something a bit earthier, perhaps this is Harry Styles’s take on Britpop summer.
