The Top Summer Looks to Copy NOW!

When the temperature rises and you don't want to wear clothes it's hard to come up with cute outfits that are not only stylish but aren't going to make you roast to death.  We definitely find ourselves stuck in various types of sundresses which just makes us feel super beachy and boring. 

We decided to put together the best summer looks seen around the world that you can copy now. We've even added a few pieces from each trend for you to peruse. 

From bodysuits to wrap skirts, there's plenty to choose from and something for everyone no matter you shape, size or age range. 

Our favorite must haves for the summer include off-the-shoulder tops, culottes and the midi skirt. 

The best thing about the majority of these pieces is that they can easily transition into other seasons depending on what you pair with and how you style. 

Scroll on down to view the top eight trends and how you can wear and COPY. 

OVERALLS

Not to be confused as the major trend from the 90's (well technically it sort of is), but wearing overalls has been back in season for a few years now, and we don't see this trend dying anytime soon. Paired with a crop top or tank, you'll instantly step up your style game a notch with this simple yet cute and fun combo. 

BODY SUITS

Bodysuits are another trend that is straight from the 90's, but what a great trend it is. Not only do these tops make you look super skinny but they're just they are super chic and easy to wear. Play around with different styles and necklines to see which one suits your body type best. 

OFF-THE-SHOULDER

We've definitely made it clear that the off-the-shoulder top is our favorite trend of the season and can literally be seen worn on every blogger possible. The great thing about this trend is that it's super versatile in so many silhouettes, fabrics, sleeve length, you name it. Plus it's super sexy in a classy way. You can't go wrong. 

LOOSE SHORT DRESSES

We love that these loose almost sort of baby-doll meets caftan dresses are making a comeback as well. Gone are the days of the skin tight summer dress or pleated A-line. These flowy yet not boxy dresses have been seen around the world in a big way. 

JUMPSUITS 

A jumpsuit is the best way to throw on a one-piece that instantly looks chic. Think of it as your go-to outfit rather than throwing on your typical sundress. Whether you opt for a loose fitting casual look, or a more tailored piece, this piece is both comfortable and classic. 

CULOTTES

Our favorite bottoms that can be worn year round are the culottes. These started making their way to the mainstream about two years ago and since then we've seen in them in every fabric imaginable. Lately, it's been more about the denim culotte, or printed version, but whatever your style is, this style is here to stay (for now we hope!)

WRAP SKIRT

The wrap skirt is sort of a play on the wrap dress. Instead of a one-piece, the wrap skirt is a piece that depending on the cut, can actually be quite sexy and a cool piece to wear to keep you cool and looking cool. How many times can we say cool? Cool. 

MIDI SKIRT 

The midi skirt is the perfect choice when you're looking for something comfortable but are sick of wearing a dress. You instantly look more "stylized" because you can style your midi so many different ways. Whether you decide to pair with a cute graphic tee, a 

8 Ways to Wear White This Summer

We love the idea of wearing all white in the summer.

The color white is not only sophisticated and chic, but it also doesn't absorb the heat so it's actually both scientifically more functional AND fashionable to wear all white. 😀

Sometimes we forget that wearing all white is a fashion statement on it's own, and by just wearing head-to-toe of one color, specifically white, you can instantly appear more stylish. What a simple idea! 

Below we've put together our list of the Top 8 ways we've seen to wear all white no matter what country you live in. 

#1 Two-Piece Jumper Look - as seen in Minneapolis, MN USA

Maria from Minnesota, shows off a two-piece eyelet playsuit that is both feminine and subtly sexy at the same time. We love the laced up sandals and printed clutch to add a bit of interest and color to the outfit.

#2 Oversized Shirt Dress - as seen in Manchester, United Kingdom

Anghara from the UK looks super casual yet cool in her oversized shirt dress with black leather slip on loafers. We love the length of the shirt dress, not to mention how oversized the dress is. The perfect silhouette for a fashion girl. Any tighter would be too preppy.

#3 Pleated skort

Considering pretty much every trend comes back some time or another, is it time for the skort to come back to the mainstream? Oksana from Estonia certainly thinks so. We do too! However, this outfit isn't for the shy.  Oksana absolutely kills this look with her perfect figure and cool off the shoulder sleeve matching top.

#4 All White Classic - as seen in Brooklyn, NY USA

When in doubt just wear head to toe white pants and a classic tee tucked in. Helena from Brooklyn Blonde does this so effortlessly and adds a lightweight trench which adds an extra element of style.

#5 Dress it up - as seen in Budapest, Hungary

Vivienn shows off a super elegant look that is almost bridal. We absolutely love the long sleeve top paired with her flowing skirt. We're not quite sure where you would wear this amazing ensemble, but it's definitely an inspirational look that is bound to wow if and when you can attend a fab event.

#6 A Midi Dress - as seen in Chicago, IL USA

The lovely Jennifer Lake from Style Charade pulls off this geometric midi dress with such ease and grace. This dress is perfection in white, and almost looks like it could be lace from afar. 
The midi length has been seen everywhere, and in all white it's perfection.

#7 Off-the-Shoulder- and Muted tones - as seen in Poland

Olga is wearing one of the biggest trends of the season - the off-the-shoulder blouse in white and paired with some light denim. We love the idea of wearing white with a pastel or light baby blue denim. So whether you pair with something more basic like light denim, think of the color white as a light color and wear with another light color for an almost monochrome effect.

#8 Sporty Layers - as seen in Canada

Dva from Toronto is sporting one of the coolest all white looks we've seen in a while. We love the drapey tank she's paired with a sporty yet pleated pant with some lug soles and newsboy cap. The look should be layered and relaxed. The silhouette is modern and you can tell her pants fit her perfectly.
