Summer Style For Literally The Weirdest Summer Ever

While we are hardly dressing up for too many stylish events these days it’s still fun (and arguably essential) for us to add special little touches to our everyday outfits - even if we’re going absolutely nowhere. We all know what a ‘hot girl summer’ looks like, but what about a ‘pandemic summer? Read after the jump for our favorite social distanced summer looks that work just as well around the house as they do running errands, on a beach, or basically anywhere else you might be headed this summer.  

The Classic House Dress

This is hardly your grandmother’s housedress. Although wearing it might come with a side of appreciation for the little things like a cup of tea and a good book, the warm summer breeze, and a fresh, simple meal.

Perfect for a day spent indoors or out, the modern housedress is feminine ease at its best. Comfortable, alluring, pretty, and worn just for you. Pair with whatever you like. It’s literally limitless.

The Sweat Short

Cutoffs are moving over for their more comfortable cousin, the sweat short. Far from what you used to wear to bed in middle school, the new sweat short is more Princess Diana mid 80’s and less gym teacher. Look for neutral tones with flat fronts and a higher waist. Rock with cropped or oversized tee, or a one piece for a more versatile pool-to-patio look.

Simplicity But With Details

There’s a reason the basics don’t go out of style. And summer is definitely all about the basics - but with a twist. From ribbed details to shoulder pads to unique crops and straps, the white tank is definitely having a moment. It’s also a great opportunity to get creative with your jewelry - from layered gold chains to ear party stacks to even nipple piercing bars (because who needs bras), there are countless ways to make your basics look completely original.

Beachwear For Daywear

Summer is all about thriving and living our best lives. And that means everyday - whether we’re out and about or just taking it easy at home. If you can’t make it to the beach (or just don’t want to risk the crowds), wearing your beachwear as indoor loungewear is an awesome way to elevate the everyday while adding a touch of Maui or Tulum to your mood. Pair with a cocktail and that book you’ve been dying to dig into for good measure.
