June 8th, 2015 at 2:00am

Summer is finally here! You know what that means! School is over, the sun is shining and it’s time for your spontaneous, adventure-loving side to come out and play. Do you have a love for music? Summer says drop the ear buds and venture out to a music festival. Are you sick of seeing the same scenery day after day? Summer says switch things up and go on a road trip. Do you want to get in shape but find the gym too boring? Summer says forget the treadmill and go for a run in the city, take a hike or hop on over to the beach and go for a swim. Summer is all about trying new things and making some long lasting memories along the way. You want each moment you spend to be the perfect picture to add to your mental scrapbook.

The best way to make sure each of these moments is perfect is to always be ready for anything. This means being open-minded, optimistic and making sure you have the perfect outfit. You may be thinking, “How do I plan out the perfect outfit when I am just going with the flow of whatever comes my way?” This Fashionista knows the answer to that, and the answer is lace.

Lace has been trending a lot this spring and summer; it was even showcased in runway shows by Chloé, Givenchy, Rochas and Zimmermann. This is because lace is not only very feminine and beautiful, but also very comfortable and convenient. During these summer months most people are outside a lot, which means they are going to be out in the hot weather. Lace is very lightweight, so you will be able to stay cool no matter how hot it may get. Since lace is very lightweight, it is also easy to layer with. So when those hot summer days turn to chilly summer nights, you can put a camisole under your lace tank top or throw your lace sweater over your sundress.

This Fashionista is ready for any of summer’s surprises with this stylish white lace tank top. She paired it with some simple denim shorts, a neutral bag and neutral heels so that the intricate detail of the shirt would pop out. She then added a little bit of color to the look with an amethyst ring. With a look like this, she is ready to make memories to last a lifetime.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK?: “Express who you are. Stay simple and classy.”
