We are all looking forward to summers full of sun, travel and internships. However, there is one last milestone we have to hit before packing up our stuff and leaving campus: graduation. Whether you are receiving your degree or watching friends as they enter the next chapter of their lives, graduation is a special day for everyone. It’s also one of the biggest events of the summer to get dressed up for.
If you’re looking to stand out in a sea of floral sundresses, this Fashionista’s outfit is an amazing choice. It’s light, summery and perfect for the occasion but strays from the norm. Instead of a dress or maxi skirt, this Fashionista opted for a pair of flowing wide-leg pants. These are a great idea for a graduation event, especially if it is outside. Light colors and fabrics and loose cuts will keep you cool while not being too skimpy for the occasion.
I adore the color combinations in this outfit. Her patterned kimono is the ideal piece to keep the sun off of her shoulders. I love the way that she picked up on the color palette of the kimono and chose bright pink shoes to match. The color-blocking of the pants and shoes is a nice touch. However, this Fashionista doesn’t stop at clothes. She incorporated the color palette into her beauty routine by wearing aqua nail polish and a swipe of pink lip stain.
One Simple Change: One issue with special events is that we often buy a new outfit for the occasion but fail to wear the pieces ever again. That’s why wide-leg pants are an excellent choice. Pair them with a top of the same color to create a sleek matching set for a girl’s night out. Add some minimalistic heels and a clutch, and you’re ready to go.
