I love fashion in Summer. Well actually, I love fashion all year round, but the change of season is my favourite part of the year because I can transition from my winter wardrobe of jeans and knits to skirts and dresses for summer.
In summer I LOVE wearing colour. I love quirky patterns and bold colours in accessories and individual fashion pieces.
I embrace the relaxed side of dressing by swapping my handbag with a basket and my boots for some sandals.
My favourite part of dressing in summer is creating outfits from pieces I already own. Sometimes, it can be hard to wear a dress differently because when it’s hot, no one wants to be wearing layers. The key to changing an outfit is with the accessories like the shoes, handbag and jewellery.
I love to stalk online stores to create outfits that may eventuate into my wardrobe. I’ve curated these 7 days of summer outfits so that the shoes and accessories from each outfit, can be worn with other pieces in this post.
There is a lot of colour in these outfits, so they may be too bold for some. If you’re shy in adding colour to your outfits, start small with a pair of coloured earrings. You may be surprised at how they make you feel.
