How to Create a Fun and Colorful Summer Look

With school officially out, summer is finally here! Summer is the perfect season to head to the pool, stop by your favorite ice cream shop or if you’re like me, spend it working. With whatever summer shenanigans you have in mind, it’s good to know some easy, cute, and comfortable ways to still look fashionable through the summer months. Two common phrases I hear regarding summer fashion is “I dress better when it’s cold” or “I don’t really dress that great in the summer.” I believe these statements come from the fact people have a hard time dressing comfortably for the warmer weather and how to style up a look without the help of layers. This is the reason why embracing colors in the summer is KEY!

If you have a fear of your outfit seeming too basic then that’s when it’s the perfect time to play around with your colors and prints/patterns. In my look below, I chose to rock one of my favorite shirts because of the funky, fun prints and different colors throughout the shirt.

Overalls are an easy throw-on item and can style up your looks. With my colorful shirt and pair of overalls, I felt like embracing the colors within my shirt so I decided to wear these colorful pair of New Balances (that were a lucky find from a thrift store, like what). I also intended on accessorizing this look by embracing my colors even more with my bracelets and then placing a simple choker around my neck. This look only took simple items that piece together a look with the help of my knowledge on colors and prints.
