Summer is almost upon us, and I, for one, am thrilled. With the warm (okay, extremely hot) weather, all the skin-baring trends like cutouts, miniskirts, corsets, and mesh work better with the temperatures, and there are so many fun trends like crochet, beaded jewelry, and platform sandals to wear. Basically, use the season as an opportunity to channel that summerfashion aesthetic. If you’ve seen any of Dua Lipa’s vacation outfits, you know exactly what I’m talking about, but think statement pieces, bright hues, piled-on accessories, mixed prints, and textured knits. But for those who lean minimalist, you can definitely sneak some more subdued pieces into your looks like breezy pants, neutral heeled flip-flops, and black dresses.
Here, I rounded up 34 items for you to get a jump start on your summer shopping and get in on the vibe for yourself. From shimmery bikinis to bold tube tops and rectangle sunglasses to woven sandals, there’s so much to add to your warm-weather wardrobe. And they’ll definitely steal the show in any #OOTD pic you post. If you have any vacation plans coming up, you’ll definitely want to keep scrolling—and even if you don’t, you can at least pretend like you’re at a beach resort wearing any of these pieces. It’s nice to dream, right?
