I love shopping for spring and summer clothes every year! This summer I’m inspired to wear light dresses and cute sandals – and I’ve tried hats again.
In this post, I share my spring picks from each clothing category.
dresses + overalls
I’m still a big fan of jumpsuits and maxi dresses. I love how easy it is to feel put together with just one piece of clothing!
Pink floral dress / Floral collar dress / Yellow plaid dress / Purple field suit / Floral midi dress / Sage field suit / Floral mini dress / Red mini dress / Blue floral jumpsuit / Turn front dress
sharpen
Combining cute t-shirts and cardigans is always a good idea in my opinion. I love these pieces all year round.
Green Ruffle Shirt / Palm Springs T-Shirt / Tan Gingham Shirt / Olive Cropped Cardigan / Elton John T-Shirt / Crochet Cardigan / Orange Cropped Shirt / Black and White Top
floors
It’s nice to have a perfect pair of jean shorts. I also love to combine my outfits with skirts. I often wear them with t-shirts.
Button fly skirt / gingham skirt / high rise denim shorts / black denim shorts / denim skirt / military shorts / loose denim shorts / coral skirt / striped shorts
shoes
I wear my Vans and Birkinstock sandals so often. In my current stage of life, flats are definitely more fashionable than heels, but I still like wearing heels on a date night.
Yellow Leather Mules / Shiny Leather Sandals / Orange Suede Birkenstocks / Woven Mules / Ivory Sneakers / Green Birkenstocks / Clog Sandals / Checkerboard Vans
bags
A cute shoulder bag and a large tote bag for pool days are my spring and summer essentials. I love a bag big enough for a picnic blanket!
Tan Bucket Bag / Red Crossbody Bag / Drawstring Bag / Butterfly Satchel / Blue Crossbody Bag / Canvas Tote Bag
swimwear
My swimsuit drawer is crammed full of “mom suits” (must-have suits that my kids can’t easily take my top off of, haha). There are so many cute options this year.
I love collecting them and mixing them up all pool season.
Mod Shapes swimsuit / cover up maxi dress / high waisted bottoms / teal swimsuit / pink swimsuit / button down maxi dress / color block swimsuit / floral swimsuit
accesories
I’m really into hats and simple gold jewelry this year. Emma also loves bucket hats!
Pencil Brim Hat / Bubble Tea Phone Case / Rattan Earrings / Cat Eye Sunglasses / Floral Bucket Hat / Huggie Hoop Earrings / Straw Hat
I’d love to chat about your spring or summer must-haves in the comments! xx—Elsie
