The galaxy has flipped the switch on us. It's getting hotter, the mercury's been steadily rising over the past week, and you know what it means- it's finally summer.
It’s the season of ice cream, relaxation and picnics at the beach. But between all the violent sunlight, UV rays, dry weather and constant sweating; it may be a little hard to stay stylish, or even think about fashion.
Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Because if you feel the need to be trendy while beating the heat, you’ve come to the right place. Grab your butterscotch sundae in one hand and get ready to scroll with other, because we’ve got 5 scorching hot tips (sorry, bad pun) for you to stay as cool as a cucumber while looking glamorous in the sun.
White and pastel shades are better at reflecting light, AKA brutal sunrays; lightweight clothes are made of thinner and more breathable fabric, and help us keep cool.
When you’re walking down a beach, the salty breeze in your hair, and the sunset setting your silhouette ablaze, you don’t want to be wearing a skintight leotard.
Instead, imagine yourself in an oversized shirt or breezy summer dress, wearing a floppy hat and flip-flops. Now, that’s what I call summer fashion.
To avoid sweat sticking to your clothes, and just feeling cooler in general, wearing cropped clothes like crop tops, bralettes, and shorts is a great option.
However, it is worth keeping in mind that this increases your skin’s exposure to harmful UV rays. It is advised to use sunscreen before you go out in the summer.
Of all these different textiles, each have their own purposes. And when it comes to the warm season, lighter, porous and absorbent fabrics are the way to go.
Cotton is definitely the ultimate summer fabric, but other options include linen, rayon, chambray and silk.
A conclusory point to wrap up the previous four- your summer clothes should be chic, fashionable and a la mode. Because after all, we are looking at how to be stylish this summer.
Light-coloured, lightweight, flowy fabrics in the form of trendy clothes gives you your perfect summer outfit. The fashionable designs and outfits you choose, are hence, the cherry atop your summer-wear-requirements sundae.
This concludes our popsicle… err, I mean… listicle of pointers for looking and staying cool in the summer heat. Remember these five easy tips and you’ll never have to break a sweat (oh dear, another pun) about the way you look.
Now off you go, relax, catch some rays, get another Butterscotch sundae and most of all, look your best!
Have fun in the sun!
