Nothing says summer like all white! This look is fresh and effortlessly chic when done right. It is also the coolest colour you can wear, win win! Tip: debunk that myth that white is unflattering by making sure the fit is just right; neither oversized nor snug as seen here.

This summer, the top knot can be your go-to hairstyle! Not only is it totally chic and trendy, but will keep you as cool as a cucumber! Added bonus: this do comes in very handy when you just don’t have time to wash your dirty tresses.

Try trading in your favourite black jeans for a white pair to show you’ve transitioned your wardrobe for the warmer months.

For casual days, the t-shirt is heaven-sent! Make sure it’s 100% cotton, and as thin as possible without being see-through. Pump up your look with some statement sandals.

 A hat is essential to keeping cool this summer, and protecting our skin from the sun. Whether you chose a floppy straw one, or a trendy fedora, hats don’t only give shade, they make some bold fashion statements too!
