As the weather gets warmer and the sun gets brighter, the transition from spring to summer clothing becomes very apparent. From wearing lighter colors, to less layers, or open toed shoes, summer clothes begin to rise much like the warm temperatures. Many struggle to style summer clothing with there being a lack of stylism, with the hot weather eliminating the concept of layering that basically all the other seasons bring about. Summer clothing also may seem simpler and more basic, because of the lack of room to style an outfit. But there are many ways to make summer clothing seem more stylish and fashionable. So, what are you going to be wearing this summer?
“I wanna say Jorts, jorts all the way, it’s definitely a jorts summer!” said Freshmen Ryland Gufarotti, when asked what he would be wearing a lot this summer. Jorts is the short phrase for jean shorts and recently in the past couple of months they have had a major spike in popularity, with some might even saying they are making a comeback. Jorts were very popular in the early 2000’s with them coming in very different shapes and sizes, whether that be slim fitted, oversized, dark denim or light, jorts were very popular. Recently jorts have come back in a more casual sense, with them being paired with almost any piece of clothing whether that be a graphic t-shirt, a cozy sweater, or birkenstocks.
Another way to spice up outfits this summer’s with accessories. Accessories are always a great thing to add to outfits and can make an outfit look very put together. Accessories from jewelry, like necklaces and bracelets can make an outfit shine in the hot summer sun. Trucker hats, and other accessories like bandanas can also make an outfit stand out more and seem more unique and cool. Sophomore Ryan Kaiser said, “I personally will be wearing a lot of gold, and vintage cool watches, along with Italian charm bracelets.”.
Overall its very easy to make a summer outfit cool and unique, and there are lots of different ways to stand out in the summertime. Whether that be specific articles of clothing like jorts or linen shirts, or pairing an outfit with unique accessories like vintage jewelry or hats. Although summer can be hot and sweaty sometimes, it’s a great time to experiment with outfits and really be able to express yourself to the fullest extent.
