During the summer, it can be tempting to live in your beloved cut-offs and tank tops every day. If your wardrobe is getting a bit repetitive, then these ideas will help remedy the situation!
Layering is a term that seems reserved for the colder months, but there's a summer-friendly piece that can be worn over other pieces: a netted mesh top. Kate Bosworth and Blake Lively layered open-weave mesh tops over white tanks, and blogger Marta of martalicious.blogspot.com wore one over a black shirt and underneath a blazer. These tops add some texture and higher finish to plain tanks.
Maxi dresses and neutral combinations can be brightened and spruced with a lightweight jean jacket. Cameron Diaz, Emma Roberts and Miranda Kerr all prove the structure this casual jacket lends. On the dressier end of the spectrum are the red blazers and cropped red pants worn by Ashley Greene and Ashley Olsen. Streamlined-colored suit separates can be dressed down a little bit with a striped top. If red-on-red isn't your speed, incorporate some red into your look via your eyeshadow. Leelee Sobieski played with the daring color which popped against her black top. Nina Ricci applied the hue to the eyelids and kept the surrounding makeup and hair nude and matte. Implement any of these strategies to breathe new life into your summer wardrobe! Shop our ideas in the thumbnails below.
