Summer's arrival is breathing new life into my wardrobe. The warmer temps are motivating me to incorporate a handful of fresh, of-the-moment trends into my summer looks and get creative with my summer staples. This month, I've been bookmarking some of the coolest, most fashion-forward summer outfits to get me inspired.
Below, I rounded up super-inspiring outfits—from chic and elevated everyday looks featuring summer basics to statement summer looks featuring color and prints—that are worth trying over the next few months and incorporate a mix of classics and trends. One thing's certain: These outfits will make you look like a fashion person in no time.
Pale-Yellow Minidress + Statement Shell Necklaces + Thong Sandals
For the ultimate fashion-person look this summer, pair statement shell necklaces with a minidress in this season's of-the-moment butter yellow. This look is chic and fashion-forward.
Shop the look:
Tank Top + Flowy Pants + Silk Scarf + Raffia Bag
Effortless white flowy pants are a summer essential. The coolest (and easiest) way to style them is with a simple black tank top and a silk scarf tied around the hip and worn as a belt like all the fashion girlies are wearing them this summer.
Shop the look:
Satin Shorts + Oversize Sweater + Jelly Shoes
Silky shorts are trending this summer—bonus if they're lace trimmed. Pair them with an oversize sweatshirt or tee, and finish the look with trend-forward red jelly shoes. It's a look that screams fashion person!
Shop the look:
White Embroidered Dress
When in doubt, throw on a white dress when the temperatures rise to a point where anything related to pants would be unbearable to wear. Opt for pretty embroidered dresses this season to beat the heat in style.
Shop the look:
Jorts + Tank Top + Button-Down + Sleek Flats
Denim Bermuda shorts, or jorts, are having a major moment this season. Get them low-rise and loose, and style them with a simple white tank, a blue striped button-down, and sleek slingback flats to add polish to the casual pieces.
Shop the look:
Graphic Tee + Striped Pants + Thong Sandals
Summer is the perfect time to play with color and patterns. Striped blue pants are a favorite among the fashion set right now. Style them with a cool graphic tee and thong sandals for a look that's fun, playful, and full of personality.
Shop the look:
Tank Top + Sheer Skirt + Thong Sandals
The It piece for summer 2025? A sheer skirt. There are so many cool styles on the market, but I'm particularly drawn to this blue one. Style it simply with a tank top and thong sandals for a fresh and fashion-forward summer look.
Shop the look:
Linen Vest + Matching Linen Skirt + Kitten-Heel Mules
Nothing beats a matching linen vest and skirt when you want to look polished and put-together in the heat. A black set will work for day or night. Style it with kitten-heel mules and oval sunglasses to finish the "zero effort required" look.
