Summer toppers
Summer time! The summer season is from June 21 to September 21. When we think of summer we think of relaxing in the sun, watermelon and peaches, lemonade, barbecues and picnics, and long days of sizzling temperatures. 🍉 A time of the warmest weather and the tiniest clothes, summer may also be the easiest time to dress of the whole year! That’s because you don’t need to layer or wear much for the most part. The heat really is made more bearable with the correct clothing which makes you feel lighter and more breezy. Read on for the best toppers for your summer wardrobe. These are the top styles we recommend but you may or may not want to include all of them in your wardrobe. Use what best suits you and your unique style!
Summer toppers essentials checklist:
Denim jacket
Colored blazer
Kimono
Denim jacket:
It may be hot out but mornings and evenings mean another layer is sometimes needed, even in summer! A denim jacket in a summery shade of blue — like light or medium blue — makes the perfect versatile jacket for your summer wardrobe. For a dose of casual edge, throw on a denim jacket — it pretty much always works. Denim jackets look so great with printed clothing that you likely already have in your closet for the summer! Save the ultra-casual, funky denim jacket styles for the weekend, but streamlined versions look amazing for office wear too. See more ways to wear denim jackets here.
Great denim jackets can be found at Gap, Forever 21, and Levi’s.
Colored blazer:
Black blazers serve you throughout the year, but in summer try adding a stylish colored blazer to your wardrobe! Pick a blazer in a summery color like pastel blue, pink or yellow. Colored blazers are instant outfit-makers — that’s one of the best things about them. All your neutral bottoms and dresses will have an easy stylish counterpart if you have one of these.

Shop colored blazers at Zara, Express, and White House Black Market.
Kimono:
A loose, draping kimono is airy and sublime in the summer! This robe-like layer is sexy — maybe because it resembles a robe or lingerie! Wear a kimono over tiny summer clothes to cover up a bit if you’re spending the day in the sun or spending the evening in the breeze.
Get cute kimonos at Anthropologie, Free People, and Forever 21.
