Summer Looks for Going Out and Day to Day
With looks to go out during the day, there's no secret: the more cheerful the better. The informal look is also a big divider between those who know how to dress and those who don't, because it's much simpler to combine a party dress with shoes than three or four separate pieces with colors and prints. But it's not that complicated. Want tips? We have many!
with dress
As said in the famous scene of the agenda meeting of the film The Devil Wears Prada between chief director Miranda and her editors, flowers in spring is more than obvious, isn't it? That's why it's worth investing and not making mistakes. It never goes out of style. The trend just changes over the years in details and now it's smaller flower designs and not like the ones seen some collections ago. You can invest with flat sandals, flats or even some models of sneakers to wear on a daily basis and you will rock.
Trend – If you're one of those tuned into last-minute fashion tips, you'll be pleased to know that among the summer looks, one of the most used ones out there will be the sleep dress. The outfit really looks like a sweater and has already been seen in collections by giants like Calvin Klein and Givenchy. It is loose and with fine fabrics like silk, marking the body a lot. Combines with both high heels and heavy pieces to create a contrasting effect such as jackets and coats.

When the weather warms up, it's the vibrant and cheerful colors that should come out of the closet. Forget the tones that go with everything and sober and go with yellow, floral prints, stripes and everything that is cheerful and fun. Ethnic prints are super trendy and combine well with plain blouses.
Ethnic print and summer fashion have it all!
with shorts
On your next shopping trip, take a good look at the models of denim shorts in the shop windows. The traditional blue wash and models without details are rarely present, giving way to lighter models and even with white details.
And with what shoes to wear denim shorts in summer looks? Shorts (shoes or sandals) are a great option. The more informal the event, the simpler the footwear can be. And remember: there is no obligation to use the same bag color.
The models of shorts with light fabrics are also a great tip and have the advantage of comfort and practicality. The combination is simple and follows one of the most basic fashion rules: printed shorts with a plain blouse and vice versa.
Trend – high waist is super trendy. It's nothing like the 80s or 90s looks, but it's way above the familiar low waist. The jeans also gained a torn touch of being kept in the closet and very retro.
with jeans
Anyone who doesn't have a pair of jeans in their closet isn't prepared for anything. It goes well with everything, even when the occasion is informal and it is worth investing in models with both higher and lower waists, but not too low because this is an out-of-fashion trend. It's worth wearing with loose blouses for those who want to adjust their proportions or have a body with wide hips and tights for those who are bulkier at the top.
Trend – maxi pants. Super loose, loose and comfortable, the hope is strong that this will be the must have piece of the next fashion summer. They bring back the pantaloon style, which many users missed for its comfort and making thin legs much more sensual.
with boots
Boots are really typical winter pieces, but you can wear them without any problems in the warmer months of the year. It's not worth putting on coats and pants because the lightweight should show lightness. With this type of combination, the lighter the fabrics (transparency is important here) the better to look like summer. Your boots in this case are the contrasting element.
Can you wear tall boots in the summer? Yes, but always giving preference to an irreverent combination. Wearing with leggings, jeans and coats is already in winter fashion.
Summer Looks for Work
with dress
Dress work looks require some rules shared by summer and winter fashion. Transparency and dresses that are too short are out of place in a serious and formal environment like this one. In addition, tight models, as long as they are comfortable and not as sensual as for a party, are welcome and value curves with a touch of classic sensuality.
Ever heard of the belt trick? This is a great accessory to change the face of a plain dress. Invest in different colors and models. It's not a fair model, it's just to give an extra touch to the look.
Trend – apron-style dress is one of the 2016 fashion bets for Europe. Around here it should arrive at the end of the year on the streets but there are already a lot of brands selling. It's youthful, elegant and can easily go to work depending on the piece. The funny thing is that it doesn't cover the entire top and doesn't wear a belt.
with skirt
The pencil skirt remains a must have piece when the tip is for offices and formal jobs. And it's worth investing in because it goes with everything from spaghetti strap tops to your basic meeting suit and is a comfortable piece to wear. The ideal when we are going to corporate environments is to always stay in models with a length of mid-thigh or as close to the knee as possible or even beyond it. Mini skirts are not recommended.
Printed skirt asks for smooth complements always!
with shorts
Of course, when we talk about a work look, denim shorts are left out, but there are so many possible combinations that you probably won't miss them. Prefer models that are a little longer and for summer, the lighter the shade and the brighter the better. White shorts are great for formal settings and super easy to match.
In doubt which one to take home? Invest in neutral colors like beige, gray, navy blue and black to match everything!
with jeans
Jeans are only informal when you use complements to make the look with this concept. With more formal blouses, some long sleeves (even in summer, the occasion calls for it) and some colors to liven up the reflection in the mirror, you can easily wear thousands of models of basic jeans at work.
Ditch the flats at work, they really look much better with those basic jeans for a walk with the girlfriends. In corporate environments, stick with high heels, boots or something much more chic and elegant. High heels also help with posture and you gain a little height.
with boots
Boots and a winter look are a perfect combination, but they look great when you opt for dresses, pants with light blouses and loose pieces. Draped dresses and boots are a combination that was once considered extravagant, but is now super fashionable and popular in summer fashion.
With long pants, the boot becomes your common social shoe and then any combination is worth it.
Celebrity Summer Looks
And how are the celebrities enjoying their summer wardrobe? Some are already betting on new trends:
Don't know which print to use? Go chess. English rocker Alexa Chung shows that fabric never goes out of style and it's true: it really doesn't. You can invest without fear that you won't make mistakes. The loose models are super on the agenda next time they are hot.
Short jeans, why not? The North American singer with beautiful curves Beyonce shows how important it is to enhance your legs in the summer. Mini shorts with a shirt are always a good choice for informal looks and great for those who are tall and have shapely legs.
The beautiful Blake Lively, our eternal Gossip Girl, shows that plain pants can be left behind. The look with printed pants in a minimalist style also appeared in some informal red carpets and collections as a bet for summer fashion.
