WHAT TO WEAR: Weekend Wear

Keeping cool in the Florida heat is a difficult task but this Fashionista makes it look easy! She has done the impossible in keeping cool all day while staying stylish at the same time. She’s achieved this by using lightweight pieces that can be layered to create a unique look.

In this outfit she blends two very different styles: edgy and feminine. This Fashionista paired darker items together like her denim shorts with a gray tank top and black Vans which act as the edgier side, but added a cream-colored, floral lace kimono draped over the top to finish the look. It’s this last piece that gives the look its feminine and girly vibes. The top is also pretty form fitting so it works as a nice contrast to the kimono being loose and airy, which is definitely an essential for the summer!

To me, this is the ideal weekend wear attire and could be worn for a number of occasions. Going out to brunch, running errands, going shopping or even going to a concert are just a few of the places that I could see this ensemble being worn. The sneakers also give an added functionality to the outfit because rainstorms are almost an everyday guarantee during Florida summers and sometimes sandals aren’t the most practical.

One Simple Change: Want to take this look from day to night? Swap out the black Vans for a pair of black strappy heels like these, and you’ve got yourself the perfect girl’s night out look! You could even change out the sunglasses and dainty jewelry for a statement necklace or a cute choker instead. These changes keep everything casual and lightweight, yet the heels dress the look up a bit, making you ready for wherever the night takes you!
