We have waited a long time to frolic in the sun and enjoy summertime festivities. It’s fun to start thinking about all the cute things you can wear. After all, this summer is bound to be more fun than last, right? Bring on the BBQ’s and bring on the parties! Do you want to give your summer style a boost without revamping your entire wardrobe? I am sharing 5 Things I am loving for Summer. These 5 pieces will cover all your summer plans and keep you looking smart and stylish.
A new statement bag
Come to think of it, a new purse is one of the most significant purchases you can make to update your summer wardrobe. Aside from being functional to hold all your trusted belongings. It is a subtle way to express yourself. Let’s face it, you never leave home without a handbag. Put some thought into your purse by selecting a reliable yet fun looking bag to carry around town.
Summer Slides
Previously the big trend for summer was tennis shoes worn with dresses and skirts. These summer slides are a step above the sporty tennis shoe trend and are just as comfortable. Dress them up or down. They can be worn anytime of the day. Plus, they allow you to show off your summer pedicures.
T-shirt Dress
Many choices here as you can opt for a solid color or the fun tie dye or striped versions. Either way a t-shirt dress is not only comfortable to wear it will not wrinkle so you can expect it to take you from daytime into evening. Adding fun accessories like a scarf or bangles will change up the look. Whether you are running around town, lunching with the girls, or heading out on a date night, a cotton t-shirt dress is this seasons must have. My dress is from the Gap and currently on sale!
Top Knot Headbands
My daughter in law recently gifted me this headband for my birthday and I am hooked. I’ve always been a fan of headbands. And am so glad that I tried this brand, they are so very comfortable. I can wear them all day long without getting a headache. I enjoy headbands in the summertime because the stylish headband helps to pull my hair off my face and control my look because my hair likes to inflate the minute I step out the door! Especially here in Florida!
Drawstring Pants & Shorts
Fancy free and comfortable whoop whoop! Wearing a pair of loose fitted pants is a great alternative to slim fitting white pants. This pair from Amazon come in a variety of prints, stripes, and solids. Just add a knotted white button-down shirt or a simple tank. The key is making sure they are the right length. I like to wear mine with either flat sandals or wedges. You will not be disappointed by adding a pair to your summer wardrobe, instead you will stand out. This pair from The Loft also caught my eye. As they can be easily styled with a simple tank, button down and topped with a jean jacket for a casual cool summer look.

Good Morning Nancy!
I really love the dress on you! I am so tempted! The length and the waist detail is simple, yet wonderful to dress up or down. The silver bracelet looks great with it, love silver with greys I am loving the slide sandals and would love a pair of braided ones.
Have a great weekend!
