Hi all! Welcome back to the blog! I hope that your summer has been great and that you've been finding time for yourself to relax. For this week's post, I wanted to share some of my mid-summer fashion must-haves to feel like my most confident self. I really want this summer to be all about feeling good in my skin, and radiating confidence wherever we go. I think that a great way to do this is by having some go-to summer pieces that help me feel comfortable, stylish, and self-assured. I'm a huge believer in that self-care is being confident in who I am, and a huge part of doing this is wearing clothes that I love! So, read below for a few of my recommendations!
1) Flowy Dresses
I feel that a good old flowy dress is an essential summer staple! A flowy dress not only keeps you feeling comfortable during those hot days but also exudes a lot of elegance and femininity. For me, I love a dress that just yells "summer" which has vibrant prints or simple pastel shades, to add a touch of fun to my outfit. Find one that you love and make it your go-to for the season!
2) Linen Button-Down Shirts
Linen button-downs are a summer essential that can instantly elevate your style while also keeping you comfortable. I love loose-fitting linen tops in pink and soft, neutral shades for a relaxed and sophisticated look. I find that wearing them over a tank makes me feel really good, while also having a breathable outfit for the hot days. I love springing a linen shirt with linen shorts (can you tell I love linen ;) They also go nice with your favorite pair of jeans to create effortless yet polished outfits. You can accessorize with some of your-go to jewelry for a complete look!
3) Statement Sandals
A pair of neutral sandals are perfect to wear with any summer outfit! My go-to pair are some white-colored Jack Rogers that provide my feet with ease but also complement my overall looks. Whether you go for flat sandals, wedges, or platforms, your footwear choice can significantly impact how you feel throughout the day! Find a good pair of sandals that are comfortable, because comfort is key. Walking with confidence is much easier when your feet are happy :)
4) High-Waisted Shorts
I feel that high-waisted shorts are a versatile summer staple that can either be dressed up or down. You can pair them with a simple t-shirt or a crop top for a casual and trendy look, or dress them up with a flowy blouse or button-down for a more sophisticated vibe! I love a good white pair of shorts that pair perfectly with any top since white is such a versatile color for the season. I like to wear more breathable materials for the summer and love a good pair of linen shorts for ultimate comfort and style!
5) Accessories & Jewelry
Now, let's talk about the transformative power of jewelry! For me, accessories play a vital role in completing my summer looks and adding a touch of my own personal flair. I feel that it's jewelry that really makes a look my own! Statement necklaces, oversized earrings, or stacked bracelets can instantly elevate a simple outfit. Consider incorporating some jewelry with a pop of color to elevate your look even more! And most of all, choose pieces that reflect your individuality and make you feel confident :)
6) Classic Tees
You can never go wrong with a classic tee for the summertime! They're truly timeless pieces that can be dressed up or down for any occasion. I love a good tee made from soft fabrics like cotton that's flowy and breathable. lOpt for versatile colors such as white, black, or neutral tones, as they can be paired with almost anything in your wardrobe. A well-fitted classic tee effortlessly exudes a sense of confidence and simplicity and it'll become your go-to for this time of year!
Personally, when I take the time to wear outfits that make me feel confident, I am actively prioritizing my well-being. Dressing nicely allows me to express my individuality, embrace my unique beauty, and radiate my self-confidence. I feel that it's a powerful act of self-love that can boost our self-esteem, enhance our mood, and positively impact our overall sense of well-being! So, as the sun continues to shine brightly this summer, let's continue to embrace the power of wearing outfits that make us feel confident and good in our skin. My summer outfit staples help me feel confident each day because they allow me to look good, and most of all, feel good. Investing time in how we present ourselves is so important for our mental and emotional health. Self-care is a journey that encompasses all aspects of our lives, including how we present ourselves, and most of all, how we feel. So, embrace the transformative power of fashion, and let your summer outfits reflect your inner confidence and beauty!
I hope you have an amazing rest of the week, and as always, take good care of yourself.
