5 Easy Breezy Looks To Stay Cool In A Heatwave
By Sarah Macken
We’re taking inspiration from our European and New York-dwelling counterparts on how to look good when the mercury rises …
A bandeau top (note the gold detailing on this one by Selected) and tailored shorts is the kind of dressy-casual combination that works perfectly for pounding the city streets. (We might trade the coffee for an iced one, however!)
Keep it cool – and classy – in a pair of white cotton co-ords with a frothy touch of lace. Instead of opting for shorts, why not go for bloomer style trousers?
A little white dress is a byword for summer cool. Make sure yours has novel, new season details such as ruching, bodicing or ties (and shop the best white dresses for every budget here).
When the temperature rises, monochrome is rather magic. We love seeing how the street style set combines black tailored waistcoats with jeans or full elasticated skirts in airy white or palest shades of yellow: it’s a look that’s effortlessly chic.
Lean into traditional dress shapes such as a shift in a summer-perfect pattern such as gingham. Trending head scarf, optional.
