Many designers are starting to turn to simplicity for inspiration as they turn to classic fabrics and more natural looking materials to work with. But something simple can also be dynamic.

It can sometimes be hard to find a good outfit that keeps you looking refreshing against the harsh sun. Which is why all white looks and light cotton fabrics are a season essential.

Cotton summer dresses with dynamic details is a closet must have. For example this white cotton poplin dress. Simple at first glance but the poplin cotton is cool to the touch and the button closure resemble something classic.

Though the details of the tied bows just off the shoulder is the icing on the cake. Its the perfect flare the dress needs, making it look extremely chic and modern.

We decided to keep it simple with the accessories and tried to play with organic and natural looking accessories like this woven bamboo bag and platform sneakers with a natural straw sole.

This look is inspired by the 1960s Pop Art icons Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. Who doesn’t like a comic book throwback? Plus, we’re all superheroes in our own ways so why not dress like it.

The summer is our favorite time to rock an all white look. Not only does it keep you cooler from the sun but also it looks refreshing. I decided to pair my Lichtenstein inspired top with a white mesh skirt, a straw bag and chunky platforms. And of course sunglasses, which is a must always!

I love how breathable these mesh bottoms are, such a fashion forward mash up of skirt and shorts. Also, I was never a casual sneakers and shoe type of gal but since trying the new platform trend that’s been taking over the fashion industry, my obsession for them is ever growing. They’re just so comfy! Sometimes trying new things outside your comfort zone can show so many new ways to get creative.

Life as a superhero can’t be easy but I must admit that it does give a much added opportunity to have fun with your outfits 🙂

Let your imagination run free! Its summer so take the moment to have fun, be playful and get creative! Wear a variety of bold colors, shapes and fabrics to your summer style. Whether you’re going out for a drive down the coast with some friends or just enjoying some refreshments by the pool in your own backyard, the possibilities are endless when the sun is out. So kickback and take it easy! You deserve it.

One of my favorite parts about summers style is being able to show a little leg. I love the chance to bring out a pair of lace shorts to wear. I particularly love these pair of bold green shorts because of the extra fringe detailing on the edges. It adds a little movement to my every step. Also, the open lace fabric adds an easy breezy comfort and breathability for some of the warmest days.

Another one of my favorite parts about summer style is being able to mix and match bright colors that really POP! Make sure to balance the rest of your look to fit those statement pieces well. Comfort and contrast is the core of every good summer outfit. So wear a solid white off the shoulder layered blouse and some understated but chunky platforms for contrast. I love the shape of this white blouse as it matches the movement of the shorts. I paired my look with some platforms that are so much fun to wear and one of the hottest trends this season!

They add the perfect height and are extra comfortable to wear on the go. I also threw on some playful accessories that are easy to mix and match. I decided on the stripe hat for some shade and I wore some statement earrings for some added texture with a bold red lip to match. And to tie the whole look together I threw in a fun strawberry straw purse as a little hit of how sweet the start of every season can be.
