After a long fall and winter of snuggling up in our cold-weather wardrobes, most of us see the coming spring/summer season as an opportunity to strip back, refresh, and ultimately settle into at least a few months worth of dresses and shorts. Unfortunately, with summers of late having become about as unpredictable as the rest of the world’s weather, many of us are finding that our skimpiest summer offerings simply aren’t always enough to see us through anymore.
In light of this, now is the ideal time to reassess what you mean when you say ‘summer wardrobe’. Of course, you can still fit a fair few summer dresses and short combos in to satisfy your warm-weather cravings. But, for less-nice days, you might also want to make way for the following warm-but-not-too-warm wardrobe staples.
Fashion scarves
As well as looking strange, walking around in your winter scarves during even a tepid summer is going to see you overheating pretty quickly. Still, the possibility of surprisingly chill summer breezes or evenings means that you might want to protect yourself in some other way. Fashion scarves that both look great and provide a practical layer of cover offer a fantastic way to achieve that. Available in a range of different patterns and across various lightweight materials like cotton and even silk, stocking up on just a few of these essentials ahead of this summer means you can stay warm, and look like you just stepped off the beach, all at once.
A summer take on cardigans
As much as we love them, most of us are happy to see the back of our cardigans when spring rolls around, but remember that lower summer temperatures could still see you needing a little something to wear on top of your strappy tops and t-shirts. Of course, shawls provide some solution, but the reality of carrying these around and not forgetting them is always more hassle than it’s worth. Hence why lightweight, summer-style cardigans like the cardigan shirt offered by Tees2urdoor are becoming an increasingly important summer addition. Lightweight material and easy-wear items like these are especially fantastic for providing the cover you need, without going too far over the top.
Trousers that can breathe
Shorts on a not-so-great summer day are going to leave your legs not only cold but looking pretty rubbish as a result. As such, stocking up on a few pairs of summer trousers is also important for those not-so-nice days. For obvious reasons, barely breathable denim jeans might not be your best option in this sense, but breathable trousers made of materials like cotton or linen can far better serve your purposes. What’s more, even while your legs are covered up with these options, their lightweight wearing means that they’ll still look every part the striking summer additions you’ve been looking forward to.
Unseasonable weather at any time of year can leave your wardrobe in jeopardy. Don’t let it happen this summer by stocking up on pieces like these for those just-in-case weather setbacks.
