Summer’s Greatest Hits

On one hand, there are styles that make it clear that they’re here to win your wardrobe over and over again, regardless of the season. On the other hand, there are ones that may be embraced only for a few months in the year, but their icon-status is for keeps! 

We’re already amidst a relentless summer but while the temperatures rise, so should our style game. Closet classics that we can count on during the warm-weather are our biggest motivation to dress up and show up; whether it’s to our living room, or another place. 

So here’s a seasonal reminder of summer’s greatest hits – and why they deserve the spot they’ve taken up in all of our closets! After all, when else will they see the light of day? 

Carefree Kaftans

While originally, the silhouette holds Middle-Eastern significance, around the world, it is among women’s wardrobe favourites – and with good reason! It moves when you move! It doesn’t constrict you, and feels like a breath of fresh air right after you’re done and dusted with winter’s endless layers! From getaways to festivities, and from your day-to-day plans to special occasions, there’s a kaftan for everyone and everything!

This carefree closet essential will make your body want to sway to its rhythm, and align with your easy-going mood. The eclectic prints and radiant colours make it all the more perfect for when the sun’s shining bright above you. Because let’s face it – it wouldn’t be summer if there wasn’t a little (or a lot) of ‘fun’ involved.

Sunshine-Ready Dresses

There’s a reason why almost every summer-themed song you listen to has the mention of a girl in a dress, leaving the guy smitten and stunned! In fact, there have been entire songs dedicated to this wardrobe classic.

It ties all women and their tastes together, and come summer, this is what we want to slip into (and never slip out of!) Some of us might lean towards a casual and cool-girl look, completed with the quirkiest pair of shades. Others though, might prefer something with a hint of glam. Think details that allow bare-skin moments, or prints that are anything but understated! No matter what our personal style is though – one thing is for sure; this summer staple is here to stay for years to come!  

Open-Toed Pairings

This is the season to let your body breathe free – so why should your feet be left behind? Strappy sandals and open-toed shoes are a go-to in the summer when humidity can not only make you cranky, but pose other health hazards! Ask us about our favourites and we’ll tell you that we can’t get enough of pretty pastels, playful details and colour-splashed footwear.

Pick mules and slides when your day comprises chilling by the pool. Slip out of them when you feel like you want to dip your toes into clear blue waters! For festive occasions and other intimate events, there is nothing better than embroidered or embellished block heels! They’re sure to stir up some fun, all while keeping you comfy.

Roomy Totes

When the temperature never sees a dip, staying fuss-free throughout the day is usually at the top of our list. But the reality is far from what we dream of summer to be. Yes, fluid silhouettes and open-toed shoes all help greatly. But there are some things that we just can’t step out without during this time of the year. 

A bottle of water that helps you stay hydrated at all times, a pair of sunglasses that defies the brightest sun rays, sunscreen to keep your skin safe and a tiny hand towel to wipe away sweat are things you need to carry everywhere, without the shadow of a doubt. Your sling bag won’t even begin to fit these items, in addition to all the others that you need to lug around! That’s why, a roomy tote is generally considered to be a summer favourite, and you can fit all your essentials into it AND leave some space for extras. This one’s definitely our hero!

Hip Headbands

The 90s gave us some of the best pop-culture moments, and they also gave us the best fashion inspiration! Trends from the decade keep making a comeback every now and then, and most of them gradually turn into wardrobe staples. Headbands, of all kinds, were huge at the time – and they’re huge now! 

Letting your hair down and allowing the wind to play with it is a very summer-thing to do, isn’t it? What makes it even better, is the addition of headbands that are far from plain and boring, but more about sequins, colours, embellishments and prints! They’re just as capable of making a statement during the day as they are of stealing the spotlight at night. If you don’t already own a zillion options, you’re definitely missing out.
