Yeah I know we’re in a pandemic but that doesn’t mean you need to dress drab even inside your homes! Looking good comes easy when the temperatures drop. Whether you want edgy, athletic, rugged, or anything in between, this is the Summer to step it up and make it happen.

Shorts

A pair of athletic shorts, be it mesh or sweat, is an easy option when the situation is casual. Athleisure is a legitimate fashion cornerstone these days, so don’t feel like they can only be worn with tees and tanks.

Tees

Summer shirts can be a dangerous game. It’s hot. Keep it light. Invest in some t-shirts with a little more substance than a 5-pack of black and white. Keep the designs simple. No Ed Hardy. No graphic tees with awful jokes. Stripes are a good option.

Shirts

For button ups, keep the heat in mind. Go for a light weight linen for long sleeves. Plain light colored shirts are always an easy find, but if you can find plaid that won’t give you a heat stroke, indulge in some patterns. Plain colors are staples for a reason, but don’t get boring.

Pants

Put your dark wash indigos away till fall, and try out some lighter shades. Avoid “true blue” and anything acid wash, but otherwise feel free to experiment on that end of the spectrum. If a bold choice like that is not up your alley, go with black. Although it seems counterproductive, black jeans will always look good.
