Your guide to staying cool, calm, and collected while having fun in the sun.
Ready to clear out your closet and enjoy the rest of summer post Covid-19? We are here to help. Here’s everything you’ll need to stay stylish and safe outside.
1. Whats the tea, sis?
One trend we’re seeing this summer is a straight up blast from the past. The Billowy Dress, better know as the modern tea dress, is a garment style that was once popular in the 50’s and 60’s. Worn in midi or maxi length, with or without a belt, these drop-waist gems are the perfect piece for a chic and contemporary look.
2. We’ve been there, we’ve done that, we see right through your funky hat.”
Bring sand to the beach with an oversized floppy sun hat. This statement accessory is sure to keep all eyes on you, while protecting yours from UV Rays. If you're feeling a bit more laid back, the bucket hat is still going strong this year. With thousands of color-ways to choose from, adding one of these to any streetwear fit will absolutely give you that extra pop.
3. “All tea, all shade, b*tch all offense.“
90’s fashion has always had its way of making a comeback year after year. The 'Shield Shade' is no different. Last year was all about skinny sunnies. We can thank the Fenty and Prada Fashion Houses for bringing back this sporty and retro statement accessory. This trend is definitely fashion-forward.
4. Bag Lady
You gon’ hurt yo’ back. Draggin’ all them bags like that. Summer 2020 is all about mini bags and cross-bodies. French designer Jacquemus, and accessory brands like JW Pei have helped reinvent the mini purse. Adding a Le Chiquito to your daytime fit can help bring balance to your entire look. Another bag that is making its way back on the scene is the bucket bag. Whether made of leather or straw, it is most def on our trends list this season.
5. Barely-there Heel
Sandals have always been a summer essential, but this year we’re seeing a lot of new renditions. The mule has gained more and more popularity over the last few years, but this season has emphasized in specific the 'square-toe' mule. Brands like Bottega Veneta and their 'Padded Sandal', which retails for almost $900.00 USD online, has influenced smaller brands and online boutiques such as Ego Shoes and Public Desire. You can find super stylish dupes that retail for about $50.00 USD.
If you’re looking to revamp your wardrobe and up your style, this quick guide to summer staples will be your bestie. Don’t forget to grab your sunscreen, hand-sanitizer, and PPE! Try to keep at least six feet away from people when you’re out and about, safety first! Never miss a beat with these statement pieces and evocative fashion trends.
