Keep it Cool on Hot Girl Walks With These 6 Accessories

This hands-free device that effortlessly hangs around your neck is a serious game-changer for instant cooling. It gently blows a breeze across your face and neck as you walk without you needing to do anything except charge it the night before.

Staying hydrated is key and a smart water bottle can make sure you are hitting all your hydration goals. It will track your water intake with the connected app and even remind you when to take a sip! Some more advanced models even display the temperature the water is at, ensuring you have refreshing sips your entire walk.

Headphones, even the bluetooth ones, can feel clunky and uncomfortable while working out. At best you have to worry about them slipping off your ears, at worst they are unnecessarily heavy or the wires keep getting in your way. Bluetooth speaker sunglasses on the other hand discreetly play audio through small speakers embedded in the frames while simultaneously protecting your eyes from the harsh UV. It’s a win-win.

Made from hyper-evaporative material, cooling towels provide hours of chill. All you have to do is wet it out, snap it a few times and its cooling properties will be activated. Drape it around your neck or shoulders for instant relief from the heat.

Take personal cooling to the next level with a portable misting fan. These handheld devices combine a small fan with a fine water mist, providing an extra blast of coolness that feels especially refreshing on hot days. Many are compact and battery-operated, perfect for slipping into your bag.

This is my petition to bring visors back — these hats are not only necessary for prolonged outdoor activities but can be quite stylish. For a "smart accessory" feel, look for hats with moisture-wicking fabrics and ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable during your walk.
