One thing we can all agree on is that this Summer has been quite different than years past. Personally, the way I dress has drastically changed. I’ve been wearing a lot more t-shirts and sweatpants. It is actually a rare occasion to put on real clothes. But when I get dressed, I feel a significant shift in my mood for the better.

I think it is important to remember to practice the little things that make you happy, and sometimes, throwing on a cute does just that! I’m sharing three outfits that are perfect for the Summer. They are casual yet charming, can also be worn for many occasions, and can transition into the Fall and Winter months.

Denim Dress

Denim is a staple fabric that will never go out of style! You can pull this dress out 10 years from now, and it will still be relevant. The denim material gives this look a very casual vibe, but you dress it up with your favorite summer heels.

2. Flirt up a black t-shirt with a ruffle skirt

We still want to get a little dressed up, and the best way to do that is with a classic black t-shirt. However, right now, give a trendy shirt with shoulder pads a try. The exaggerated shoulders make the look fashionable without appearing like you are trying.

3. Straw influenced accessories

You can modernize any outfit through accessories! A straw hat will not only protect your face from the sun but also add a “cool girl” chic vibe to your outfit. You can cinch your waist with a straw belt and match it back to a straw bag. Last but not least, an espadrille is a great summer shoe that is comfortable and looks great with almost any outfit!

As the seasons change, so do trends. As you know, animal prints were huge this Fall and Winter. See my previous post here and here. But this spring, a new animal is taking over the kingdom and it’s all about zebra print. It’s a classic animal that looks so sleek when worn in black and white or even mixed with a bold color. Make sure to check out zebra prints in interesting fabrics like sheer nets and sequins. It adds another dimension to the print and it looks great when paired with solid items.

Another huge trend that is coming back are neon colors! Remember how popular they were in the early 2000’s? I know my nails were always painted in neon pink.

Well, this spring, make sure to buy one neon colored item to mix into your outfits. I’ve been seeing neon turtlenecks, sweatshirts, shorts, and dresses. Today, they have been revamped to become more sleek and modern. Neon pieces are also quite sporty.

My favorite combination is a neon piece mixed with zebra print. Whether it’s neon pink, highlighter yellow, bright orange, or lime green, add a pop of color through a top or accessories.

In this look, the neon zebra skirt becomes more subtle because it is grounded with the black. I brought in some additional neon accents through my jewelry, bag, and tights.
