Casual wear is not necessarily a synonym to something boring and ordinary. Summer looks for every day can be bright, and calm, and businesslike, and romantic. The latter are the focus of our attention today, because when else to wear feminine dresses, flying skirts, airy trousers and capes, if not in summer? Be sure that you will look weightless and delightful in such clothes in any, even the most trivial situation. So, what clothes to choose to look cute?
IS IT MANDATORY TO CHOOSE DRESSES?
Not at all, it depends on what kind of clothes you prefer in most cases. Of course, a dress is the easiest option for creating a romantic look: a bellflower dress, a sundress with ruffles, an A-line dress with lace elements, a floor-length dress with puff sleeves, and a dress with straps in lingerie style are suitable for this purpose. A flare midi skirt combined with a basic T-shirt or top will also help create a feminine look. But if trousers or shorts are your thing, look at the summer suits made of viscose, linen or staple cotton: lightweight button-down shirts, wide leg trousers or shorts will keep you feeling airy and cool and make you look elegant, even if you just need to go out to the shop or visit a nail master. As a rule, at such moments we meet everyone we know in the world, so a cute look will be very suitable to the occasion!
BRIGHT OR PASTEL SHADES?
Summer women’s clothing implies brighter colors than other seasons. This year, first of all, the colors and shades of the Ukrainian flag are in fashion: sunny yellow, lemon, mustard, sky blue, azure, cornflower blue, electric blue and even turquoise, as well as emerald, scarlet, hot pink and aquamarine. You can make a total look of a bright color by choosing a linen suit, a corduroy jumpsuit, a sheath dress and a matching jacket. Another option is to choose colors for a multi-color look using the rules of the color wheel.
However, if you prefer calmer tones, summer 2022 has saved up pastel options for you: lilac, lavender, taffy, ivory, blush, mint, peach and salmon. A pastel tone can be used as a background in printed dresses or striped suits, or it can be combined with a brighter shade or base color. For example, you can use a plain pastel shirt dress or an A-line dress supplemented with a white jacket and bright turquoise sandals and a handbag, or a lilac shirt with fuchsia trousers or shorts and golden accessories.
GENTLE PRINTS AND PATTERNS
Casual looks for the summer heat almost always involve printed clothing. The most popular summer patterns are floral print, polka dots, stripes and watercolor abstracts. The most perfect models for printed fabrics are wrap dresses, straight dresses and floor-length sundresses, as well as slip dresses, baby doll dresses, maxi skirts with slits and semi-flare or trapeze midi skirts.
