But summer also brings the dilemma of what to wear on the weekends. You want to still look stylish, while being casual, comfortable and cool.
We have some stylish suggestions that will allow all three demands.
• Garments: choosing the right garments can make dressing for hot weather on a weekend afternoon easy.

o Instead of full length pants, look for knit Capri’s with an unusual design element; they can be fitted like leggings, or full like trousers. A pair of Bermuda length shorts in a clean style made of trouser quality fabric is also a great alternative to trousers in a full length.
o We love skirts in the summer. They are cool, easy to find in light summer weight fabrics, and easily dress up a simple tank or T-shirt.
o Dresses are also great for warmer weather and are still the big item this season, the style selection is boundless. Dresses are cool, often quite comfortable, easy and most importantly make you look put together
o Blousy tops are very popular. This is a great alternative to the plain cotton T-shit, which can look frumpy and unflattering. A blousy top makes a statement and has style. This is a great way to dress up simple cotton shorts and look a bit more put together.
o We love thin, embellished Cardigans for the summer instead of Jackets. This is a great way to dress down and be comfortable without being too exposed.
• Fabrics: Staying comfortable in hot weather is all about the right fabric choices.

o Linen is often overlooked because it wrinkles so easily, but it really is a wonderful fiber to wear. This season there are many linen “jeans”, which are a much better choice then heavy denim when the weather is hot and much more sophisticated looking as well.
o Tissue weight knits are the key to being cool in summer heat. These fabrics are comfortable, soft and cool but allow you to be covered up from the sun or any other unwelcome exposure.
o Microfibers are the best thing to have happened to clothing in decades. Today microfibers are breathable, comfortable, and can be amazingly weather resistant!
• Accessories: finishing an outfit with the right accessory choices is really the secret to having a chic look in hot weather.

o Hats will protect you from the sun and can be fabulously stylish. Find a great hat that flatters your face and you are set for the summer.
o Jewelry is the easiest way to dress up your look without adding unwanted layers. For casual weekend wear chose light, fun, playful pieces like acrylic bangles and fabric necklaces.
o Shoes, like Jewelry, can really make an outfit pop! The secret is to find a great pair of shoes that you not only love, but are comfortable, and whenever you put them on, your outfit looks great! This season, we are loving skin tones, the ultimate neutral.
o The final piece to complete any outfit is a bag. Clutches are very chic, but not as practical as a great tote. No matter what, your summer bag should have style, perhaps some color, and be durable.
