Do you ever have those mornings when you just can’t think? If, like me, you’re not much of a morning person, then that might be the majority of them. Aside from making it easier to forget something at home or skip a part of my makeup routine, it also tends to make it a lot harder to put together an outfit—especially if I haven’t had my coffee yet.
In order to combat this, I like to keep a mental registry of quick and simple looks I know will always work for me, made up of easy basics I already have hanging in my closet. For the summer months ahead, I’ve already found eight such looks I’ll be screenshotting and then committing to memory, all of which I have a feeling you’ll like too. To see what they are and, of course, shop them in case you’re missing any of the essentials, just keep scrolling.
Bonus points for a fun belt and timeless basket bag, but honestly, this outfit would be chic regardless of the extra accessories.
The muscle tank is the latest trend to make it to essential status, and it’s only getting more useful as the weather heats up.
Got a printed dress? Good. Got flat sandals? Even better. You can never go wrong when pairing the two together.
Tube tops are indeed back, and there’s no better time than just before summer to invest in one.
Flowy, boxer-style shorts will be your best friend this season. My favourite way to wear them currently is with an oversized button-down layered on top.
It’s also a dream holiday look that works perfectly from day to night.
You can even grab your best sleep tee and prettiest pyjama pants to make this one work and just add strappy black sandals.
Shoes are definitely optional, but there’s no wrong choice when you’re pairing them with such a classic combo as a white top and jeans.
