7 Effortless Outfit Formulas To Take You Into Summer

By Sarah Macken

Sharpen your look with these outfit ideas that hint of summer …

White co-ords and a structured bag


Taking elevated off-duty to a new level, Jennifer Lawrence translates Sleeper’s chinoiserie-inspired matching set to the streets of New York. Key to the look? Styling it with a structured saddle bag, layered gold chains and elegant flats. 

White T-shirt and a polka dot skirt


We like the idea of kick-starting the good weather season with a statement skirt. Gathered, puff-ball styles gained momentum on the catwalk and slip skirts abound once more, but there’s something about the simplicty of a polka dot style that has perennial appeal.

V-neck knit and minimalist accessories


We’re not bidding farewell to knits just yet, which is why the idea of a great V-neck style, teamed with minimal accessories, feels very of the moment.

Nipped in blazer and a headscarf


If you’re in search of May outfit ideas, then the current trend for nipped-in blazers is a smart way to look polished. We love this black style teamed with silk trousers and a Carolyn Bessette-inspired silk headscarf. 

Tank top and drawstring trousers


Upgrade a simple tank top by adding a corsage. It’s the perfect high-low pairing, especially when teamed with a pair of drawstring trousers.

Breton top and capri pants


Reinstate the Breton top. Whether you team it with jeans, or up the ante with capri pants, May is the perfect time to embrace a long-sleeved striped tee. 

White jeans and a dark leather jacket


Contrast white jeans with dark brown leather for a look that’s part vintage-inspired and, in the case of an excellent leather jacket, part rock-and-roll.
