Summer is here, and there's nothing I want more than to look cute all season long. I've been living in Los Angeles for a little under two years, and I'm always looking for easy yet chic outfit combos that are perfect for channeling West Coast vibes. My favorite way to find looks worth re-creating is scrolling through social media, so I did just that. I've highlighted some cute looks I stumbled upon and exactly how I plan on shopping them so you, dear reader, can shop along too.
Keep scrolling for the ultimate summer outfit ideas and detailed shopping suggestions for scoring these killer looks. From outfits that incorporate sporty pieces to skirts galore, there's a 'fit worth getting excited about ahead.
1. Halter Top + Plaid Skirt
Summer is the perfect time to bring out the iconic halterneck silhouette. I love how this look pairs it with the trendier plaid skirt for a fun outfit that's super versatile. Pair this combo with anything from sneakers to cute flats or your favorite sandals.
2. Basketball Shorts + Baby Tee
With the WNBA's recent rise in popularity, it's no wonder fashion people everywhere are embracing sportier styles like basketball shorts. Longer-inseam shorts in general are definitely going to be big for summer, but I love this casual take on the trend. I'd totally wear this style with cute ballet flats or kitten-heel sandals for a fun contrast.
3. Black Top +White Miniskirt
You can't go wrong with lightweight, neutral separates like a black top with a white miniskirt. Such a versatile outfit is the perfect backdrop to really make the outfit your own with cool, unique accessories. I'd pair this look with moto boots or loafers, but the options are endless.
4. Jersey + Maxi Skirt
As I touched on above, sportier styles have definitely been having a moment. I'm so obsessed with the jersey + maxi skirt combo in particular. I feel like the sports jersey adds an air of coolness to an already classic summer staple. I think this outfit would look great with sneakers or even cutesy styles like Mary Janes or kitten heels.
