Pastel dresses bedecked with stripes reminiscent of the lustrous candy colored umbrellas that line the French Riviera. Linens that allow the breeze to tickle your legs. Hats so large and heels so small you can stroll new streets all day- just look out for cobblestones. This is the fashion of summer 2019- a light, classic, elegance.
Here are my top 7 styles for this summer!
1. A Wink to the Past
Victorian Era elements are currently being infused into all sorts of garment and the final look is stunning. Puffed sleeves, boning, and draped silhouettes are being redone into crop tops and dresses. The effect? An old time romantic feel- perfect for those who lust for a return of grand gestures and sonnet proclamations of dearest love.
2. Stripes
We can agree floral reminds you of your grandmother's couch and polka dots haven't bedecked your blouse since at least the 3rd grade. Lest, this narrowing of appealing patterns has brought us to embrace the subtle flare (and slimming affect) of stripes.
3. Silk
There is no other fabric like silk. It gives an instant feeling of glamour and luxury. It is sexy but still classy. Silk flows across your skin, letting the air in making hot days bearable. After all, wearing silk feels as though you are wearing nothing. Free yourself of constricting poly dupes and invest this summer in a quality piece that will make you feel like a queen.
4. Linen
Looking for a more relaxed fabric than silk that still lets the breeze in? Try linen. This summer we are taking on struggle of linen's wrinkles for the comfort of its breathability and the beautiful natural look it has.
5. Bardot Style
For a tease of skin and no tan lines opt for off-the-shoulder looks this season. After all, who doesn't want to dress like the iconic Brigitte Bardot?
6. Wide-Brimmed Hats
If the sun is too much for you or you simply feel like channeling your favorite retro movie star pop on a wide brimmed woven hat this summer and the later will be complete!
7. Low Heels
Yes, we still have stilettos for night events but your feet are saved during the day this summer. Low, strappy, kitten heels are the way to go when your looking for the lengthening effect and glam of heels but have a day of walking ahead.
