New season, new styles! While we love browsing the new styles that land with a new season, sometimes it can be easy to feel overwhelmed by the many Summer looks available for women.
You might even feel like you don’t know what to choose or what to pack in your suitcase. Fear not! At Lookiero we want to help and we have chosen the 10 Summer looks and outfits that we think are a must. Let’s start!
10 must-have items for your Summer wardrobe
This Summer is the perfect time to be daring and wear some vibrant colours that you may not have tried before. We are also loving all the light, airy garments that bring a romantic touch to your everyday looks. Without further ado, here is our selection of must-have items for this Summer:
- The floral maxi dress, nothing but romance
For a look that’s equal parts informal and sweet, what better than a floral maxi dress. This season, puff sleeves and vibrant colours are where it’s at. You can get a lot of wear out of a dress like this if you wear it with different cover-up options, such as a jumper or a denim jacket for cooler days.
Linen trousers are the perfect item for a casual summer look. Linen is a light and cool material that also looks great! This season there is no room for a middle ground, and we are seeing nothing but extremes, with extra long, culotte or short options. We encourage you to give a pair of palazzo trousers a try and to wear them with a white vest, a braided belt and a pair of barely-there sandals. A clean, minimalist look that is perfect for the hottest of days, home or away.
A good pair of jeans is a must-have for any season! However, although indigo, black or grey jeans are a wardrobe staple that we wouldn’t be without, this season we invite you to step out of your comfort zone and let colours invade your wardrobe. Which ones would you choose? From vibrant deep green or fuchsia, to the sweetness of mint or pale pink, or even a touch of mustard, choose the shade that best suits your personality and combine your jeans with more neutral garments to create balanced looks.
Summer dreams are bursting with romanticism and freedom. A must-have in your Summer wardrobe is a brocade blouse. Go all the way with puff sleeves, lace and the purest of white shades. Perfect to wear with your coloured jeans, or any of your skirts and shorts, we promise you won’t take it off!
If you are looking for a chic garment for those cooler days that the British Summer will bring us, a blazer is your best option. This season, we are seeing it in its sweetest version, in mint shades and with an oversize cut. If you want to take the trend to the extreme, wear it with biker leggings and kitten heels; if, however, you’re after a more casual look, choose jeans and trainers you will be trendy, Summery and very fresh.
The 80s called, they have your next favourite blouse. If sleeves and shoulder pads were all the rage back then, you’d better get used to this trend because it is here to stay. Puff and balloon sleeves bring romanticism, femininity and sophistication to any look. This Summer, choose a blouse in a Spring print such as flowers and wear it with shorts and ballet flats for a look that’s a hit in any decade.
Although pastel tones remain a Summer must, a fuchsia pink shirt is the one that will steal the show. Adding this garment to your Summer wardrobe will bring optimism and colour to any of your Summer looks. The key to wearing such a statement piece is to combine it with basic wardrobe staples and let it take centre stage. Will you dare to try it?
The jumpsuit has become a must-have, whatever the weather. It’s easy to wear, always looks great and helps you get ready in a flash, as you’re fully dressed with just one item! This Summer, choose a jumpsuit in a straight cut and a vibrant colour. Combine it with a pair of sandals and a straw bag, and you’re ready for any Summer afternoon plan.
Make the most of the romantic airs of this season and wear a ruffled midi skirt. Choose florals and a subtle ruffle for a nod to this flattering trend, particularly for those of us with an inverted triangle figure, as it will help to balance your silhouette. Wear it with a crop top and your favourite pair of pumps for a casual daytime look, or with a lingerie-inspired cami and a pair of stilettos for a night out. You’ll look spectacular!
If you haven’t dared yet, this is the time. This Summer we saw them on the catwalks, with Chanel at the forefront, and they have since risen to popularity. Fashionistas such as Alexa Chung are already wearing them. Choose them to finish off any look for a comfortable and stylish footwear option.
