Style - Stay Cool This Summer With These Top Fashion Picks

Staying fashionable in the summer is a little bit harder than in the winter months, as the sun and humidity can wreak havoc on your hair as well as your clothes.  Choosing the right outfit is paramount to achieving a polished look that will withstand the heat and keep you cool at the same time. 

A lot of people are venturing back out to the workplace after working from home the past couple of months and will require a reset to their wardrobe.  Even if you are still staying at home, this summer is a great time to refresh your closet and perhaps donate clothing that no longer serves you to a worthy cause or your favorite neighborhood thrift store. 

My Top Fashion Picks

Basic White T-shirt

This is a staple and should be in everyone's closet. A white Pima cotton T-shirt can be mixed and matched with various pieces such as high waisted jeans, skirts, or under a suit.

A Flowing Dress or Caftan

Dresses have been a summer favorite for quite a while as they provide much-needed ventilation, on those hot sticky days.  Cotton and linen dresses make the best choices for summer as they are breathable and soak up sweat thereby allowing heat to escape the body.

White Shirt

A white shirt is the most versatile piece of clothing that you can own especially during the summer.  This gem can be worn to work, running errands, or going out for lunch/dinner.   Dressing up a white shirt is easy, add dainty jewelry, black heels, and a black leather bag.

Wide Leg Pants/Drawstring Pants

The perfect pants to keep you cool is the wide leg or drawstring pants.  Ditch the blue jeans this summer if you want a lighter feel to your wardrobe. This is a great choice especially if you have little ones running around as they keep your legs cool for hours and you can easily bend in these pants.

Sandals

There is nothing worse than having your feet swollen and achy at the end of the day due to high temps.  Sandals are the answer to tired feet.  A comfy fashionable sandal can be worn with any outfit, such as dresses, skirts, and shorts.  Modern orthopedic sandals have come a long way and are super stylish for today's wardrobe.
