In part one we got you wardrobe ready for summer by
picking out tank tops, capri pants, summer skirts, and empire dresses. We
didn’t forget your feet either. For them, we featured slingbacks and slides.
Here we look at some accessories that are as essential to your summer look as
the clothing items you are wearing.
We begin with, everyone’s favorites, the beach
flip-flop!
Flip-Flops
Flip-flops are not
just meant for the beach anymore! They are fun, functional, cute, and a great
way to show off your painted toenails. They look terrific with casual skirts,
pants, and shorts. They are not proper footwear for the workplace however so
only reach for them on your leisure time. Why they may be cheap and fun, flip-flops
provide little support for your feet. With this in mind, wear them sparingly
and only wear them when walking on soft surfaces.
The Summer Handbag
The choices are many
when it comes to purses and handbags for the hot summer months! Pick from straw, rattan, canvas, totes,
clutches, or colorful plastic beach bags. Nothing says leisure or “I’m on
vacation!” like a breezy summer handbag. The wonderful thing about them is that
they are very affordable so you can own as many different styles and colors as
your heart desires! After all, accessories are as important as the outfits that
they complement. Have a different one for every day of the week or every
occasion!
Sunglasses
Never leave the house
without “sunscreen for your eyes.” Sunglasses are a definite must-have that you
should never be without. They come in all different brands, types, shades,
colors, and styles. You could own a variety of pairs if you want to. They are
as budget savvy or as expensive as you want to go. Just make sure before buying
a pair that they are made with standard UV protection. Look for ones that block
both UVA and UVB rays. An added plus of sunglasses is that they help to keep
fine lines and wrinkles at bay. Protect your eyes at all costs!
The
Hat
Don’t forget your head
as you prepare for a day at the park, beach, campsite, or pool. Even if you are
just going outside to your deck or balcony for a little while, put a hat on
that head of yours! Don’t go bare when the sun is beating down on you! Hats are
both utilitarian and fashionable. They come in a wide variety of materials,
fabrics, colors, and styles. While they are not acceptable at dinners or social
engagements, they are perfectly fine (and encouraged) at barbecues, beaches,
patios, and for your outdoor shopping spree. Choose straw, rattan, or a cloth
hat. The important thing is that you cover up your head so you don’t get
burned! Ouch!
Now you are outfitted
with everything you need to enjoy all that the season has to offer you! Have fun,
stay safe, and enjoy every minute of your summer!
