Fashion Friday: Five Summer Trends to Try Now!

As we reach the hottest temps of the summer, stay cool with these summer trends that work on everyone.

  1. Bermuda Shorts--the longer length is more professional and more flattering on many.  I like them relaxed and loose.  Try pairing with a plain white T, sandals and minimal jewelry. 
  2. Low Heels--more polished than flats, but just as comfortable (or, at least,  close).  They're cute with almost everything--dresses, skirts, ankle pants, and capris.

  3. Little White Dress (LWD)--the summer version of the LBD (little black dress).  Try eyelet cotton and summer wedges for a cool, beachy vibe.

  • Mint Green--my "go to" summer color.  This color just looks great with everything and on everyone.  Try pairing it with graphic animal print for an edgy summer vibe.

  • Statement Shades--have fun with your shades this summer.  Try retro black & white, polka dot, or heart-shaped lenses.
