1. A Neutral Palette
If you want to make your summer outfit inspiration easy, select a neutral color palette. This way, no matter what you wear, everything mixes and matches easily. Whites, creams and khakis are soothing colors that put you in a relaxed summer mood whether you’re wearing cute summer shorts outfits or a flowing maxi dress!
2. Colorful, Flowing Dresses
A dress that flows in the wind is the perfect choice for summer. Breezy, lightweight and cheerful, it’s perfect for a lunch date with friends, running errands, or a day at the beach! With a staple summer dress or two, you’ll never be in doubt of what to wear!
3. Midi Skirt & Tank
A flowing midi skirt and a tucked-in tank are the ultimate summer outfit inspiration for anyone who’s ready to throw something on and head out the door. Create a cute summer skirt outfit with your favorite printed skirt and pair it with a loose, neutral tank top for a sophisticated look that’s ideal for day or night. Add heels to elevate or wear some espadrilles to keep it casual!
4. A High-Waisted Short
If you want to keep it relaxed and casual but elevate your look just a little bit, a summer short outfit is the choice for you! Build your wardrobe around this summer outfit inspiration and discover how simple it is to pair neutral-hued shorts with nearly every blouse you own! Throw on a structured blazer to complete the picture and you’re ready to walk out the door.
5. Sets

Sets are among the most effortless ways to create a cool, stylish summer outfit. You already have pieces that match; you just have to accessorize!
