It’s summer. That means the sun is bright, the temperatures are hot and no one wants to spend much time on fashion. But that doesn’t mean that we don’t care about being stylish. There are some simple tricks to looking cool even when it’s hot. Here are 5 fashion basics for summer style that will keep your wallet happy, your style polished and let you enjoy any adventure that comes your way.
Easy Shoes
Flip flops might be considered the ‘go-to’ footwear of summer, but that does not mean that they are the best choice. Sure, everyone needs a couple fun flops to take you to the beach, pool or out to the mailbox on hot summer days, but there are better options for every day wear. If you are planning a day at the amusement park or taking a walking tour through a new city, give your feet something better. You don’t have to break out the heavy duty tennis shoe to provide support and comfort for your feet. Look at something like the new athletic walking shoes that give support and style. There are also shoes like the OOFos Originals that look like flip flops but still protect your feet and keep you walking longer and feeling better.
Trendy Tops
Looking cool when it’s hot can mean different things to different people. But everyone should have some comfortable trendy t-shirts that you can throw on with a pair of shorts that make you feel fun and flirty. T-shirts are no longer the boring plain, solid t’s that you wore in high school. Places like Neverland Store offer tops that will let you head out the door in easy comfort while still making a fashionable statement.

Comfortable Maxi Dress
There’s nothing more comfortable on a hot day than slipping on a comfortable maxi dress. Most maxi dresses can handle the heat and don’t need special care. Just throw them on and add a few accessories and you are ready for a day with friends or a night out on the town.
Tip: When you make a purchase for summer clothes do the wrinkle test. Try wadding it up in a ball and see if it shows wrinkles. The best summer dresses don’t wrinkle and can be thrown in the washing machine at home. You don’t want to have to worry about dry cleaning when you’re on summer vacation.
Simple Accessories
Summer heat begs for simple accessories. So find a few trusty earrings, bracelets or necklaces that you are comfortable wearing and store the rest of the stuff for the cooler days of Fall. There’s nothing worse than wearing heavy accessories when you are sweaty and fighting with 100 degree weather. Aim for lightweight baubles and you will love them instead of dread getting all dressed up.
Multiple sets of UnderGarments
It’s hot! You sweat. Nothing more needs to be said. You are not going to want to do laundry every day. So plan for multiples of your favorite undergarments so you can stay comfortable and cool without having to do laundry every other day.
