Must-Have Tips for Your Best Summer Style Yet ...

As much as we all summer to be the peak of fashion and style, we have to be honest: it gets hot in the summer. While it is the one season of the year where the weather isn’t as big of an issue, it can also quickly turn into an issue when humidity and heat become too much. Take that into consideration when you’re getting dressed this summer. I don’t know about you, but being cool is always so important to me in the summer!

If there’s any time of the year to just completely follow the trends, it’s the summer. Because the weather’s so great, you don’t have to worry about bulky coats or other outwear getting in the way. It makes following trends so much easier!

Because summer is the time to get trendy, it’s also the time of the year when you shouldn’t invest as much money in big pieces. Think about it: summer is all about bathing suits, sundresses and crop tops. Obviously those pieces cost much less than, say, a pea coat that you’ll wear every fall for the next decade.

If there’s any time of the year to start infusing color into your wardrobe, summer is the time. Once you get used to wearing color in your everyday wardrobe, it’ll be easier to carry that over into the other seasons as well!

I think we can all agree that the best part of summer is going to the beach. Why not dress like you’re going to the beach all of the time? Wear a bandeau under a tank top, spray your hair with salt spray or wear a flowy sundress. Even when you’re not going to the beach, it can feel like a fun day at the shore!

If there were any time to spend a little more time thinking about the fabrics you’re wearing, it’s the summertime. Stay away from poly-blends and instead wear linen, one of the most breathable fabrics. You’ll instantly notice a difference in how much you sweat when you switch a more breathable fabric!

Do you remember that old rule, “don’t wear white before Memorial Day or after Labor Day”? Even though we don’t necessarily follow that rule, summer is that magical time of the year when wearing all white is more socially accepted, so wear as much white as you can during the summertime!
