Even though the high heat seems to be dragging on, summer is quickly coming to an end. I wanted to do a quick round-up of some of my favorite summer essentials. In terms of building my capsule wardrobe, I am leaving my summer wardrobe more on the back burner because as a teacher summer is a more casual time in terms of clothing.
Basic tees
Basic tees are really great for any season and are considered staples for a reason. You can’t go wrong with a white, navy, black, or grey tee. I really like the ones from Madewell and I would size up with them.
Jeans
I am one who likes to wear jeans year round although not in the current heat we have been having. Finding a great pair of jeans is hard for anybody, but it is especially hard for petite people like myself. However, I really love Levi jeans. They are comfy and come in a wide range of sizes and styles.
A romper
A romper is a quick and easy outfit. It’s also a great outfit for petites since most aren’t long and can fit well. I shared this romper from ASOS on my stories last month. I love the cute floral print which screams a tropical beach vacation.
T-Shirt Dress
Just like a romper, a dress is a super easy outfit especially for these hot summer months when you want the least amount of clothes sticking to you. It can be hard as a petite to find dresses that aren’t too long. I got this grey one at Walmart a few years back but Old Navy also has some great options.
Keds
If you’ve been following me since July you have probably seen my Keds in almost every outfit. Sorry not sorry. I love these shoes. Keds have been around for awhile, but they have gotten a lot better. They even include memory foam now!!
