With temperatures spiking this week, keeping cool is definitely on my mind. Who wants to think about complicated outfits when even the simplest tasks feel equivalent to three hours at the gym? Despite the heat wave and subsequent frequent trips to Pinkberry, I won’t let fashion fall by the way side. I’ll be taking a note from this week’s Fashionista and throwing on my favorite sundresses for a classic summer look that never goes out of style.
Showing off that sun-kissed skin in a little flowy dress is basically a summer requirement. With celebrities being photographed left and right in their favorite sundresses, it’s hard not to notice how versatile this trend is. For Taylor Swift, a sundress calls for kitten heels and vintage accessories. For Reese Witherspoon, a sundress can’t exist without a killer pair of shades and some comfy flats. Whatever your style may be, a sundress is one terrific way to show off your personality.
This Fashionista chose a floral print sundress showcasing an unexpected open back with crisscross straps. She completed the look with a unique pair of ankle tie black wedges. I love this sundress because the sweet floral print balances out the edgy exposed back creating a perfectly cohesive look from head to toe.
Sundresses present an excellent opportunity to show off a little individuality. If you have an obsession with prints, I declare vibrant, flower print dresses a must-have for your summer wardrobe. Give it some edge with a pair of motorcycle boots or create a boho look with a long knit cardigan.
If you’re feeling in touch with your inner Blair Waldorf, try a printed sundress accessorized with a bright statement necklace and girly head wrap. If you want to go more Jenny Humphrey (circa holy black eyeliner!), this little number with silver barbells connecting the top and bottom packs a lot of punch with a hint of whimsy.
Whether you love spikes or bows, sundresses provide the perfect canvas for expressing yourself. So tear yourself away from the air-conditioned house and show the world your sunny personality.
