Mid-Summer's Guide to the Fashionable Life!

When the temperatures rise up to the mid 90s, its hard to pull cute outfits together while trying to keep cool at the same time. Your typical super chic outfit would expect layered clothing, but who would be crazy enough to that in this kind of weather! Instead of throwing on your fall/ winter necessities, here are some trendy ways to establish eye-catching attire that is very much sun-approved!

Brighten Up White is not only a crisp, sophisticated color, but it's literally cooling! Keep off the dark colors-- darker shades like black and dark blue are prone to collect more UVB and UVA rays; brighter colors like yellow and orange have a natural SPF 15 (healthy skin is always in)! Halle Berry shows off a perfect example of keeping it cool in a Yoana Baraschi summer dress. On a lazy "throw it on and go" afternoon, designer accessories, like Halle's nude Versace bag and Tom Ford sunglasses, you can help a dressed down get up look a little less fussy.




Head Scarves To make up for simpler clothes in hot weather, accessorize, accessorize, accessorize! Some people invest in clothing, and others invest in accessories to sport hot outfits. Chances are, you'll find these accessory fanatics sporting print chiffon scarves-- across their foreheads. Inspired by the hippie 70s, this trend has taken over Hollywood startlets like Eva Longoria, Nicole Richie, and Lindsay Lohan by storm. Head scarves are "statement" accessories, so make sure you keep it simple like how these lovely ladies make their statement scarves an addition to their simple cotton tees and tanks. Complete the look with oversized or aviator sunglasses, denim shorts, a couple vintage bangles, and gladiator sandals to give off the look of effortless style.




Printed Frocks A must-have for this summer is a wind flowing, exquisitely colored dress! From runway to runway, these frocks dominate. British singer/ songwriter, Lily Allen, had jetsetted this trend as her signature style (adding along edgy and complementing sneakers) starting with her befriended, Chanel's own, Karl Lagerfeld. When buying these, "control" should mainly be around the neckline or waist to exaggerate a refreshing, summery feel:
