Summer Fashion Already? by Luci Black
If you're like me, you're sitting in a blanket on another cold winter day dreaming of a sunnier day. Don't get me wrong, I love a good dreamy snow. But I hate the cold, and quite frankly I am so over the cold weather fashion. My coping mechanism is well, of course shopping. There's nothing like shopping with a purpose. And for this purpose, a new season ahead. I have settled into the idea of a time capsule wardrobe and am trying to work some more closet staples into my wardrobe. Stay tuned and learn my favorite summer must haves.
As you know I am a sucker for a high heel. They are my day to day go-to's and are the absolute perfect summer shoe. They are great because they can be casual or dressy and can be paired with pants, a skirt or a dress. A strappy sandal that also happens to be a heel is literally a summer need. Make sure to have a heeled sandal on deck this year. Summer is also the perfect season to wear a bold shoe. Something about warm weather means neon colors. So combine the two and bam, a neon high heel. My last summer shoe suggestion is a wooden heel of some sort. I feel like summer is really the only season you can get away with it in the right way. So I personally, like to take advantage of that.
My summer uniform would definitely have to be a mini dress. Don't get me wrong, I sport them year round. But there's nothing like a true mini dress experience. Warm weather means no need for thighs, making it the perfect time to pull out your mini dresses. You can never beat a classic tank top mini dress. They are great on their own for summer and are the perfect layering piece for fall and winter. A Midi dress is also a summer classic, perfect when you're not quite in the mini dress mood, but you're still feeling dressy. Last but just as cute as all the other dresses is a slit dress. I am always here for a little bit of a leg moment, and in the summer sometimes just that slit alone helps you stay cool.
