Effortless Chic: Styling Tips for Transitioning Your Wardrobe from Spring to Summer
Picture this: Wild blooms lining the streets, a warm breeze tousles your silk scarf-clad hair as humidity is heavy in the air, but you’re stuck wearing a clunky sweater that you assumed would keep you warm during chilly evenings of spring.
Navigating the shift from spring to summer weather calls for investing in versatile staples that ensure a seamless transition. With go-to options for the season, we curate a condensed list for a timeless, transitional wardrobe.
Lightweight layers: For starters - a breathable, button down cotton shirt to throw over a dress or a tank top and shorts is a must have for summer. The Oversized Lani Shirt by Hemant & Nandita is a great option for a wardrobe staple. Look for textures and contemporary silhouettes to enhance your everyday looks. Get experimental and opt for a vibrant, printed blazer for special occasions, such as the Judy Double Breasted Blazer by Leo Lin.
All time classics: Think summer, think florals. The print is an all-time classic, however, contemporary brands are redefining the landscape with abstract patterns that capture the essence of femininity without succumbing to the cliché. Hemant & Nandita’s Floral Mini Dress is a dreamy, feminine design with said abstract floral print. We love the balloon sleeves and flared skirt that ensure you will stay airy and comfortable all day.
Pastel palettes: As seen in the latest collections of De La Vali and Needle & Thread, the pastel palette trend evokes nostalgia, a sense of serenity, calm and simplicity. Pastels are not new to summer, however, shades like dusty pink and lilac are gaining traction for the season. For outdoor events to evening soirées, the Posy Pirouette One Shoulder Maxi Dress by Needle & Thread is a perfect choice while the Filigree Midi Dress by Aje is ideal for summer brunches and afternoon tea.
Denim diaries: Investing in denim pieces ensures that your wardrobe will never go out of style as this timeless trend always tops the charts. As the temperatures rise, opting for cotton denim ensures you will stay cool throughout the day while looking chic. Self Portrait’s Denim Frill Top is our top pick while the Darcie Two Tone Denim Midi Dress by Aje is a close second.
