Despite Summer being calendar official, the season and its weathering heat can be unpredictable. Some years Summer arrives in June, and others the bulk of the heat doesn’t land until August. This year NC has experienced Spring quite well. With another week of storms and humidity to look forward to, it seems as if we’ve just hit the transition phase between seasons. Considering those likewise in transition and those who are already ripping off the layers, I put together some casual early Summer outfits for the week.
I curated these early Summer looks with humid weather in mind, while recognizing that some may still be experiencing Spring-like weather or (like me) like to wear pants regardless of the outside temps. You’ll also see a good mix of long and short sleeves, shorts, pants, and optional layers. Feel free to substitute, and inner-change accordingly with any of those shown or better yet, with similar items in your own closet. Be sure to check back next week for new styled looks!
Monday
Crochet and linen are two fabric aesthetics I am loving for Summer. The knit crochet sweater tank is from Spring’s capsule and the trousers are the linen version of my favorite Reformation pant. This monochromatic duo works well for the office, a monumental shower, or lunch with friends.
Tuesday
This outfit is a repeated favorite. You can see last year’s version worn here. The classic combo of tank and jeans is always a win and I love having the sweater on hand if temps decide to turn. Gladiator sandals, a circle straw crossbody, and dainty gold hoops complete the look.
Wednesday
One of my very favorite looks, ever. The off-shoulder blouse leans more dressy, so if you’d wanted to switch it out for something more casual you can. The olive linen shorts are also a great alternative to denim. Complete the look with black-toe sandals, a gorgeous Clare V. straw bucket bag, a simple pendant, and sunglasses.
Thursday
I told you these pants would be the pant for Summer. They’re lightweight and easy to wear any day of the week. I love styling them with an oversized poplin shirt. When it’s hot, I typically button one or two buttons and leave it at that. The end-all look reads casual chic in the best way. You can view a few other ways to style these bottoms for Summer, here.
Friday
This gorgeous eyelet long-sleeve mini dress is perfect for early Summer days. It’s lightweight and transitional. Accessorize with a feminine hairpin, and a circle tote bag.
Saturday
Who doesn’t love a one-and-done fit? My love for a jumpsuit runs deep. I have a few short sleeve options that would work well for early Summer. I love this one from Alex Mill, this utility suit from Noble, or this jean overall from Everlane. Layer with a denim jacket if needed.
Sunday
This weekend outfit will have you feeling put together and so comfy. Use or remove the layers at your leisure! These Accolade joggers are a Sunday favorite, as is this chic half-zip pullover. Wear them at home or grab your white sneakers and a stylish backpack when heading out.
