Summer is here, and with it comes the challenge of dressing stylishly while staying comfortable in the sweltering heat and relentless humidity. After spending part of the week in College Station, where Caroline and I caught an Aggie baseball game and attended a graduation party for Gulley’s oldest, Jackson, I experienced firsthand the struggle of dealing with intense humidity. Despite the sticky weather, I found some fabulous outfits that not only beat the heat but also keep you looking chic all summer long. Here are my top picks to help you stay stylish and comfortable no matter how high the temperature climbs.
Cloth and Stone Long Sleeve Shirt Dress
I love a denim shirt dress, and this one is perfect. The fabric is light and breezy, and the color is spot on. This long sleeve shirt dress is great for days when you want to look polished without sacrificing comfort. It’s an excellent addition to your summer wardrobe, combining style and ease.
Splendid Kaia Cargo Pant
These are the cutest lightweight cargo pants. I love the gathers at the ankle, which give them a chic touch. Cargo pants are making a comeback, and these are ideal for a casual yet stylish look. Pair them with a tank top or an oversized t-shirt for a laid-back vibe.
Aerie Slouchy Oversized T-Shirt
This t-shirt has been a favorite of mine since I got it last summer, and I was thrilled to see that it’s back this year in a bunch of color options. I wore it on Wednesday when I went to see Gulley and Honey, and they both immediately went online and bought one. It’s just a great length and perfect with cargo pants, shorts, a skirt… whatever. I would say it runs large, so you might want to size down one.
Keira Collared Button Front Blouse
I love this pretty top to wear with jeans or shorts this summer. The Keira Collared Button Front Blouse is versatile and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. It’s perfect for a brunch date or a casual day out.
Two Piece Shorts Outfit
This is so cute for just an easy summer run-around and run-errands kind of outfit. It would also be cute over a swimsuit at the beach. The two-piece shorts outfit is both comfortable and stylish, making it a must-have for the summer.
Cami Huarache Wrap Sandals
I bought these at the beginning of spring and have loved them. They are the perfect little summer sandal to wear with so many outfits. Whether you’re wearing a dress, shorts, or cargo pants, these sandals will complement your look effortlessly.
Cleo Dress
This dress is so gorgeous, and the color is everything. The Cleo Dress is perfect for those summer days when you want to look effortlessly chic. Pair it with some statement jewelry and sandals, and you’re good to go.
Retro Tropics Palm Linen Top
I got a Free People catalog in the mail, and this top stood out to me immediately. It’s so bright and fun for summer. The Retro Tropics Palm Linen Top is perfect for adding a pop of color to your wardrobe. Pair it with jeans or shorts for a vibrant summer look.
Birkenstock Arizona Chunky Platform Sandals
These Birkenstocks continue to be my everyday summer MVPs. They are so comfortable and cute. The chunky platform adds a modern twist to the classic Birkenstock design, making them both stylish and practical.
THML Medallion Printed Dress
I adore this dress. The color is just perfect. The THML Medallion Printed Dress is ideal for summer parties or casual outings. Its vibrant pattern and comfortable fit make it a standout piece in any wardrobe.
That’s it for today. Despite the humidity, there are plenty of stylish and comfortable options to help you beat the heat. From long sleeve shirt dresses to cargo pants and oversized t-shirts, these pieces will keep you looking chic all summer long.
Have a good Friday and stay stylish!
