Five Summer Wardrobe Essentials

Hey, it’s Alison with Get Your Pretty On and I believe that summer style should be cool, comfortable and as effortless as possible.  I’ll bet you do too!  It’s actually pretty easy to look cute and put together, even on the hottest days, if you have the right pieces in place.

I recently hosted a tele-seminar to share my Five Summer Wardrobe Essentials for Effortless Style.  You can listen to the full audio along with a Q&A where I share some BONUS reveals for my Summer Style Me Pretty Challenge.  Just press play below to hear the entire call.

Follow along with this list of my five favorite wardrobe essentials for creating easy summer outfits.

Five Summer Wardrobe Essentials for Effortless Style

 

1.  Maxi Dress

Maxi dresses are one of my favorite summer style pieces because they’re cool and comfortable and define effortless style.  Just add metallic sandals and a fedora and you have an instant outfit that’s perfect for anything!

2.  Fedora

A fedora adds a fun touch to all of your summer outfits.  Even if you’re not a hat wearer, almost everyone looks good in a fedora style.  Try it with a simple tank top and shorts to kick up your style a notch.

3.  Metallic Sandals

Metallic sandals are my summer favorites.  They go with everything and add a little interest to all of your outfits.

4.  Long Necklace or Statement Earrings

Accessorizing can be tricky in the summer months.  I try to keep it as unfussy as possible by adding a long necklace to my maxi dresses, t-shirts and tank tops.  Or try a neutral pair of statement earrings to dress up all of your casual looks.

5.  Printed Shorts

Printed shorts are the item I’ve added most to my closet this season.  They add interest to plain t-shirts and tank tops and look great with a pair of neutral wedges.  Try mixing patterns by pairing them floral patterns, polka dots or stripes on top.
