7 Essential Items for Your Summer Closet

August 12, 2021 by Moumous |

Hi everyone,

The summer is finally here! You can now enjoy the sun without having to bundle up in winter clothes. With all of these changes, it’s essential to make sure your closet has everything you need for this season. We’ve put together a list of seven essentials that will have you looking stylish from sunup to sundown!

#1 Swimsuit

The swimsuit is the most important item on this list. After slaving away at the gym to get that summer body back after the long winter months, you need the perfect swimsuit to reward all your hard work! Make sure you have at least one flattering and appropriate suit in a few of your favorite colors! You’ll need something for both backyard BBQs with family and friends as well as trips to the beach.

#2 Jumpsuit

A jumpsuit is a fun way to mix up your summer wardrobe. They’re great because they provide the same coverage as shorts but allow you to wear something more stylish than that old tee shirt and cut-offs combo. Plus, they can be dressed up or down depending on what type of occasion it is! Jumpsuits also always work perfectly for the summer heat – it’s like wearing your pajamas. Plus, they can be dressed up or down depending on what type of occasion it is! Jumpsuits also always work perfectly for the summer heat – it’s like wearing your PJs under clothes all day long!

#3 Sundress

A sundress is a perfect way to capture your summer style. They’re feminine, playful, and always have a sense of chicness about them. Plus, they come in so many different types that you’ll never get bored with what you can wear! You should think about investing in one or two over the next few days because there’s nothing more satisfying than wearing something new when it finally feels like it’s the season for it!

You can never go wrong with a little number from Ronny Kobo, and it will be the perfect dress to steal the show every time! And while we’re talking fashion tips – skirt lengths are going to be an essential consideration this season as well. Make sure yours isn’t too long (you might be surprised how short is considered appropriate these days) or too high (you don’t want those legs to be on full display).

#4 Comfortable Sandals

You should always have a few pairs of sandals in your closet to choose from. Whether you’re going on vacation or just spending the day at the pool, sandals are essential! Since last year, one thing that’s changed is that ankle strap heels and platform flip flops are no longer acceptable. Instead, try looking for something with good arch support and a slide sole so you can walk around easily without having blisters by the end of the day – we recommend looking online for some brands like Nike because they’ve got everything you need (and if not, they’ll ship it straight to your door).

#5 T-shirts

No summer can be complete without a t-shirt to wear every day. This essential item is perfect for those nights when you want something casual but still put together – use them as your uniform all season long! You’ll need comfy basics like white and black, along with brighter colors that will help you stand out from the crowd (think reds and yellows).

When it comes to purchasing new shirts this year, look for ones made of natural fabric instead of synthetic materials. They’re easier on sensitive skin while also being better for the environment because they don’t require excess water or energy during production. Plus, they just feel nicer against your body than their cheaper counterparts!

#6 Skirts

Skirts are another great way to mix up your summer wardrobe. Today’s fashion showcases a longer hemline that fits just below the knees; pair them with a cute pair of sneakers and you’ll feel great and be comfortable all day long! Graphic tees also look fantastic with these skirts, and they can down style the skirt if you have plans during the day with some friends.

#7 Sunhat

The sunhat is the final item on this list. You need one that looks great, but also protects you from UV rays and keeps sweat out of your eyes (always an issue in summer!). A wide-brimmed hat can do both jobs at once – if they’re a little too expensive for you, then consider looking into some more affordable options like straw hats with wide brims or simple baseball caps to shade your face.

    Yes to all of these; particularly the sunhats which I've had to start wearing more and more as I age.

Every detail tells a story: The bold frames remind Every detail tells a story: The bold frames remind me to see the world differently, with courage and color. The white blazer reflects clarity, purpose, and a fresh chapter. And, the gold accents? A reminder that value comes from within, but shines brightest when you carry it with confidence.

For me, power dressing isn’t about looking intimidating, but about embodying authenticity. It’s the art of aligning how you present yourself on the outside with the strength and vision you hold within.

Because when you walk in your truth, style becomes your silent introduction.

Styling is a calling that humbles you. Moments lik Styling is a calling that humbles you. Moments like this, kneeling on the floor, adjusting the delicate strap of a sandal, remind me that elegance isn’t just built in front of mirrors, but in the quiet details no one always sees.

Having the privilege to style fashion designer Stella Jean @stellajean_sj_ during her visit to Haiti @haifex.ht was more than work; it was a reminder of why I do what I do. It’s about service, attention, and the joy of seeing someone step into a look that makes them feel like their best self. The reward? That sparkle in their eyes when they stand tall, ready to take on the world.
