As the temperature rises, it can be hard to keep cool and stay trendy. Especially if you find yourself on the East Coast this summer, the humidity will be radiating off of every aspect of the universe (or so it seems). The challenge is on. How do you keep from melting in the summer heat, just like that ice cream cone you wanted from the truck that just passed? The answer is you should have gotten that ice cream cone and the key is accessories.
This Fashionista’s ensemble is perfect. Throwing on lightweight, light wash boyfriend jeans with some cute aspects of destruction on the knees keeps her legs from suffocating and able to strut her stuff around campus. Strappy sandals with noticeable cutouts are an easy way to let your feet breathe while you’re rushing to get to class on time. The glue to this Fashionista’s outfit is her embellishments. The J.Crew embellished T-shirt and emerald statement necklace work to make the outfit pop. She upgraded her basic white T-shirt for one with striped detailing topped with sparkling embellishments. To add a pop of color to the generally neutral color palette, the green statement necklace complements the reflective top while being quiet enough to wear with her favorite pair of jeans.
Mixing casual with statement pieces is a no-brainer, especially if it means staying cool. This Fashionista knows what’s up: her flawless look is a mixture of the right amount of sparkles balanced by denim and neutral colors.
How To:Â Ever feel lost in your closet when the forecast for the day reads 84 degrees and 110 percent humidity? Don’t be afraid to throw on your most loved pair of boyfriend jeans. Just embellish the outfit with a statement necklace and sparkled top. Dory would agree, just keep swimming, in a pool, but if you can’t, a pool of sparkles works too.
