STYLE GURU STYLE: Hot Hippie Weather

July 22nd, 2015 at 2:00am

It’s summer. It’s hot. I’m busy and I’m reaching for my comfortable items as much as possible. Breathable fabrics with fun summer prints are a must, which is why I’ve developed a new found love for my hippie pants. If you haven’t tried a pair yet, I highly recommend it as the rank pretty high on the list as the world’s most comfortable pants. Don’t let the pant title fool you. The last thing we want in this sweltering heat is unnecessary layers. But these pants that come in a variety of fabrics from cotton to nylon that are made to keep you cool.

Zimmermann’s resort 2016 collection is the perfect representation of summer bohemian. This collection stars funky patterns paired with stylish dresses that will want you to book a vacation immediately. Completely inspired by Zimmermann’s collection, I grabbed my wide-leg pants and followed Nicky Zimmermann’s color scheme of neutral blue. I wanted to keep all eyes on the amazing pants so I decided to go with a simple white V-neck on the top. This color choice will help with my need to beat the heat.

Sandals are my go-to shoe from May through September, so I grabbed one of my favorite pairs with little detailing as they are mostly hidden by the wide-leg pants. For accessories, I wore my secondhand sunglasses. These aren’t from a thrift store or passed on from a friend. They were abandoned by their owner at my job for three months, and I decided to give them a good home. A year later, I think they’re pretty happy.

To finish of the look, I found one of my many trusty, cross-body purses. The blue in this purse really makes the blue in the pants pop and is a perfect carry all for any summer adventures. Don’t be alarmed by the size if you don’t want to lug around anything heavy in the heat, this purse is spacious yet surprisingly lightweight.

Get My Look: 1. Bohemian pants. 2. Simple V-neck. 3. Bright bag.
