Wearing Black In The Summer

Posted on August 21, 2014August 20, 2014 by Elaine

Usually in the summer I gravitate towards bright colours but I keep finding myself putting on this all black outfit. I think it’s my version of the ever popular “romper” without the whole bathroom issue going on 😉

Top: Smart Set; Skirt: LOFT Lou & Grey; Purse: c/o MIN by Minling Pan

Most people avoid black in the hot summer days but with proper weight material (in this case lightweight) black can work all year round!

This top from Smart Set has become one of my favourites. It can be worn tucked in or out and the chiffon type material allows my skin to breathe. It’s also just the right amount of sheer that I don’t have to wear an additional tank top or camisole under it! My favourite part is the faux leather details at the shoulder.

This pretty summer skirt has lace details (which we all know I’m a sucker for) and it’s got a drawstring waist band so I don’t feel restricted in the summer heat. I REFUSE to wear restrictive and tight clothes in the summer months! Also…did you notice the pockets??? It’s settled – this is officially THE BEST SKIRT EVER! 😉

This pretty peach clutch has been my summer shopping accessory. This particular day was one filled with brunch (Glory Hole doughnuts and coffee!) and a flower market. I love that I can be hands free and it offers my all black outfit a pretty punch of colour.

Are you into wearing black in the summer or do you gravitate to a more colourful outfit? And…by the way…what are your thoughts on the whole romper/jumpsuit trend?  Is it just me or are they super impractical? 😛
