Hello and happy Wednesday!
I had to double check the calendar that today is actually the second Wednesday of the month.
I’m linking up with Shay and Erika for Let’s Look.
So far this year this year, we’ve looked at:
- How we clean our closets in January
- Little things we do every single day in February
- What’s in our grocery cart in March
- Our daily quiet time/prayer time in April.
This month’s topic is let’s look…our summer closet staples.
Sandals:
After spring break, as long as the sun is out (no matter the temp!), I’m probably wearing sandals.
These Birks continue to be my fave! I bought them two summers ago, and they continue to be the first sandal I turn to time and time again.
I have some faves from Amazon too.
The rose gold double buckle sandals are another “go to” pair for me. Hadley has them in white.
The pink comfort slides I mostly wear when it’s raining, to the pool, or out in the yard.
These gold sandals are perfect to wear with dresses and easy to pack.
*I did size up one size on all three of these.
If you need dressier sandal, I bought these two years ago, and they are comfy for a heel. (I went up half a size on these.)
I wore them to the Kentucky Oaks last Friday.
Last week, I was at Target, and saw these strappy sandals. I have a pair that I got from Amazon a couple of years ago, and I love them, but they aren’t in stock anymore. These are just like them, so I snagged them right up, and was excited for the price! (20% off right now, and just under $11) I’ve worn them twice this week, and they pass the “teacher test” for footwear.
Light weight sets, dresses, and rompers:
SSYS continues to be a favorite place of mine to shop. Their crepe two piece set from last summer is perfect. You can wear the top or shorts with other pieces, the fabric is so light, and it’s an easy “throw on and go” set.
Last week, they released the spring version, and I can’t wait for it to get here. I think the price on this is a little higher, but I know I will wear it so much.
Dresses are easy to wear in the hot days of summer. A couple of years ago, I made one of our hall closets, my dress closet. That’s how many dresses I have and love.
While I’m still not “sold” that a romper is my most flattering look, I did get this one last summer, and wore it quite a bit.
Belt bags:
As you can tell from the pics above, this belt bag/cross body purse was one of my faves for being out and about in the summer.
I also love this one too, and have had it for a couple of years.
Leggings and tanks:
Again, SSYS has many of my favorite tanks and leggings, but I do have some favorite leggings and tanks from Amazon too.
Hat:
I often wear a ball cap in the summer, but this hat from Nordstrom is one of my faves.
I bought it in 2020, so it doesn’t seem to be in stock, but this one and this one look pretty similar!
I even take it with me on vacation.
This hat or visor are usually in my pool bag.
Swimsuits:
I have a couple of favorite swimsuits from Amazon. This one shoulder was new this year for fall break, and I LOVE it. I also still turn to this swimsuit (I have two patterns) that I’ve had for three years. Both come in so many colors and patterns.
Cover ups:
These three swim cover ups continue to be my faves:
My absolute favorite is this blue one that I also have in navy. The other two are a little thicker and longer, but also great.
Shorts:
I honestly don’t wear a ton of shorts in the summer, but I do have a couple of denim pairs, and I turn to this black pair from SSYS time and time again. I think SSYS is sharing this year’s version of the shorts next week.
So those are my summer closet staples.
Once I’m out of school, I’m typically in my pjs, athleisure, or a swimsuit/cover up. Oh…I can’t wait for summer days…and to be tan again!
