Trendy Summer Essentials

We are fully into summer vibes right now with ice cream and movie hangouts, shopping and lounging at the beach with friends! I find myself reaching for staple pieces for these sun-soaked days. Today I will share some of these and how I style summer essentials for everyday wear!

A romper is my go-to piece when I want to wear something I can move around in, but I still want to look put together. There are so many romper styles at Plato’s Closet that are perfect for summer. Athletic dresses and rompers are super trendy right now, so this tee-shirt-style one is my current favorite! For this look, I wore it on a walk with my friends in the afternoon and it transitioned perfectly for going out to dinner that night. Styling a romper with gym shoes and a loose bag creates an effortless, but pulled-together look.

Trucker hats are all the rage on social media right now. I am growing a collection and I have to say that I hope this summer essential trend sticks around because I am loving it! There are so many styles to choose from with these hats, which makes them versatile options for all summer events. There are also lots of design options, such as neon colors, positive phrases and cute logos. Try wearing a trucker hat for your next pool day or running around town in the summer heat!

I am a firm believer in basics as the base of any summer wardrobe. I love having a few plain tank tops and versatile shorts that can be worn across the summer to create a sustainable closet! I love these high-waisted soft shorts for casual outfits. They look great for any size and body shape! I like to pair these with a cropped tank and my favorite gym shoes for the perfect comfortable road trip or adventure outfit.

I hope this post gave you some refreshed ideas for your summer essentials! Summer is the perfect time to socialize and be out on the town, so don’t be scared to play with your style a little! Remember that being trendy can still be sustainable by shopping at your local Plato’s Closet for these perfect summer essentials.
