For most of us, summer break has officially begun (yay!) and if it hasn’t quite started yet, it’s just around the corner. Summer vacation is all about relaxing and forgetting about school stress, enjoying the warm, sunny days and spending time with friends and family. The clothing you wear during this time of year should be a reflection of just that, which means the ensembles you put together in the summer months should be relaxed, loose fitting and, of course, reflect the uplifting moods that resurface with the return of a clear blue sky and a bright sun.
When I spotted this Fashionista, I couldn’t help but fall in love with her soft, feminine summer attire. It’s such a relaxed, easy going outfit that looks super put-together and is perfect for anything a summer day may bring. She is wearing a baby blue, white striped midi skirt that cinches in at the waist, creating a loose and flowy shape. The skirt is extremely flattering and the midi length is perfect for the days when it’s a bit too windy for a shorter skirt. But best of all, this skirt has pockets and who doesn’t love pockets on dresses and skirts? It’s so convenient and stylish, especially if you’re not in the mood to lug around a purse.
She pairs her skirt with a simple, ribbed cream colored crop top. This top isn’t as tight as most crop tops nowadays, but that’s exactly what I loved about it. It complements the loose fit of the skirt and shows just the right amount of skin. A pair of black ballet flats pull everything together and add another feminine, ballerina-inspired element. She finishes her look with a swipe of dark red lipstick.
This Fashionista is now ready to enjoy the warm, sunny days in style and comfort, donning an outfit that screams summer.
One Simple Change: If you’re like most people and you have absolutely fallen in love with the art of brunching, look no further for the perfect outfit. Keep the midi skirt and top as the base look, and simply swap out the black flats for a pair of ankle strap heels. Add a cute handbag to complete the look!
