I’m sure most people have been feeling the summer heat for quite a few weeks now but summer’s actual arrival is actually on its way (June 21st) so I decided to round-up a few outfits to wear. Today I’ll be sharing with you how I would wear them then (Spring) and now (Summer) + throwing in a few tips on how to transition your wardrobe to the new season.
Then- A little black dress is the perfect way to start exposing your legs to the sun! I would throw on a denim jacket and some open-toed booties for the perfect spring look.
Now- For the summer I’m wearing the same dress with my go to block heels and the cutest purse from Oliver Bilou. I’m popping on some rose gold jewels to compliment the hardware on the bag for the perfect look.
Outfit Details- dress: Old Navy, shoes: Merona/Target, bag: Oliver Bilou, watch: Target, necklace: Charming Charlies
Then- The springtime is my favorite time to layer my favorite summer tanks under a cute cardigan and throw on some flats to finally drop the clunky winter boots.
Now- However, summertime is the season to show some skin. I’m wearing the cutest ruffle tank with some slip-ons for a casual, night-time look + popping a bandana in my hair for that ‘girl next door’ vibe.
Outfit Details- tank: Old Navy, jean: Gap, shoes: Old Navy, bracelets: Alex and Ani, purse: TJ Maxx, bandana: Michale’s
Then- Off the shoulders + white jeans are my go-to during the spring. It’s such an effortless, chic look. Also, gingham is undeniably the pattern of the season.
Now- To transition the gingham into summer I’m throwing on some white shorts and my classic black mules to complete the outfit. This is my favorite way to bring my most worn pieces from season to season.
Outfit Details- top: TJ Maxx, shorts: Gap, mules: Merona/Target, bracelets: Alex and Ani, purse: Gap
