Tips to Take Your Summer Style to the Next Level

Fashion is an explicit way to express your personality and stand out from the general masses. Your outfit can affect how you feel about yourself and define how people perceive you.

Summer clothes are all about comfort, be it casual or office wear. With the right tips and set of clothes, you can transform your look and attract the right attention wherever you go. Here’re a few fun tips to help you make a statement while flaunting your fashion sense:

Ways to Dress Up in summer for an Elevated Look and Sense of Style:

Add style to your evening summer look with a maxi dress.

Dresses are versatile, meaning you can wear them for different occasions. Wear a summer dress on those days when you barely know what to put on because they are comfortable.

Wear your rompers, mini dresses and mini-skirts during the day. You can rely on maxi dresses in the evening for added comfort. Maxi dresses are glamorous and easy to wear, making them ideal for summer vacation.

A long skirt or a sleeveless maxi dress is perfect if you want a boho goddess summer look. Opt for a tie-front dress for enhanced air circulation.

Rock a floral maxi to brighten your gloomy summer days such as during showers. Customize your deep-v maxi dress with a tie back for a perfect fit.

An off-the-shoulder maxi is the dress you need to walk down the street as if you’re on the runway. It’ll blow in the evening windy breeze as you strut.

When picking your maxi dress, consider the following factors:

1-Select natural fibers for your dress to beat the summer heat. Opt for lighter fabric options such as rayon, lace, chiffon, crochet, silk, cotton and linen.

2-Make sure the fabrics are breathable for free flow of cool air in the summer heat. Seersucker and eyelet fabrics add texture to your dress for an interesting look and feel.

3-Embrace whites and light colors to reflect sun rays if you want to adorn your maxi during the day. The colors keep you cooler and give a better summer vibe with a light air feel. Floral, bold colors and patterns are also perfect for your evening maxi dress.

4-A loose, flowy maxi skims your body. Quickly pair it with a cute cardigan or blazer to transform it into office attire you can adorn to work. Light, flowy fabrics float in the wind, making you less sweaty while exuding a summer vibe.

5-Off-the-shoulder maxis are popular, stylish and always in trend; they never go out of fashion. The summer staple is an easy way to achieve a summer look every year. It also adds a sexy touch to your look, making the dress ideal for evening occasions and a great plus size dress option.

Accessorize with hats (think panama and fedora hats) and classy boho jewelry:

Minimize accessories for a minimalist look. Lots of dangling bangles and necklaces can easily stick to your skin in the summer heat. 

Pair a stylish sun hat with classy boho jewelry for elegance. Stylish sun hats are both functional and attractive. They keep sun rays off your face and neck while a cute fedora, straw or Panama hat elevates your summer look to the next level.

Hats make bold summer statements. Opt for wide brim rancher-style or straw fedora hats for optimal coverage when heading to the beach. Different styles of hats work for different people. Visit a milliner, a local hat shop, to try out different hats and pick what looks best on you.

A straw hat is so great you’ll find yourself wearing it even when not going to the beach.

Monochrome and neutral hats go with almost any outfit. However, you can choose a hat in bold color to inject personality and character to your outfit.

Braid your hair or create a bun and use natural makeup:

Braid your hair if you don’t have the time or what it takes to get stylish and sexy beach waves. Wear your hair in a ponytail, braid or bun depending on your outfit and if it’s too long to wear down in the summer heat. This is a great way to keep your hair stylish throughout summer.

Wear natural makeup in summer. Keep it light for added comfort in hot, sweaty weather. Opt for neutral eye shadows, tinted balms and moisturizers, and pink, nude or rose stains for light touches on your skin. A product like the popular Glory Oil will help keep your skin looking vibrant, dewy and healthy.

Put aside your dark shadows, heavy black eyeliners, dark lipstick, and heavy foundation for other seasons.

Always wear a tinted moisturizer instead of a foundation unless you’re attending a summer event. Touch up the moisturizer with a liquid highlighter for a beautiful summer glow. Dab some highlighter on your brow bones, cheekbones and nose bridge for added shine.

Conclusion:

Whether you’re into trendy fashion or prefer to keep your look simple, you’ll find these tips useful. Adorn your summer office or beach wear in style to look attractive throughout summer.

Complete your summer look with the perfect accessory, anything from your favorite hat to boho jewelry will elevate your look.
