#1. Linen combination set
Consider a matching linen set, such as a cropped top paired with high-waisted wide-leg pants or shorts. Choose light pastel colors such as mint green or soft pink for a fresh look. Complete the look with strappy sandals, a woven tote bag and oversized sunglasses for a chic and breathable outfit, perfect for a day out or a casual dinner. Another great option is a beige cardigan and skirt set, which provides a relaxed atmosphere for relaxed afternoons.

A lightweight printed maxi dress with a vibrant floral or geometric pattern is the perfect choice to stay fresh and stylish. Choose dresses with flowy silhouettes and cut-out details for a contemporary twist. Pair your look with chunky shoes for a trendy nod to today’s style, and elevate your outfit with a wide-brimmed hat, layered necklaces or chic sunglasses.

#3. Puff sleeves and pants
High-waisted trousers made from denim or lightweight material combined with a blouse with puffed sleeves create a polished summer look. Choose a top in a bright shade for a powerful statement, or opt for subtle shades for a stylish office ensemble. Complete the outfit with patent pumps or ballet flats and a small structured bag. Don’t forget to add delicate jewelry for a touch of femininity.
#4. Easy to slip
A silky soft slip dress is a chic choice for adventurous summer evenings. Pair it with a lightweight blazer or a denim jacket in a neutral shade for an effortless style reminiscent of a pop star. Complete the look with heeled mules or strappy heels, and add a clutch for that perfect touch of shine.
#5. Platform sandals and something light
Choose an airy shirt dress in a striking color or playful print. Look for styles with a waistband for a flattering fit. Combine it with platform sandals and a woven belt to accentuate your waist. To enhance the retro vibe, add a headscarf or oversized sunglasses for a touch of vintage flair.
