What to Wear When It's Boiling Hot Out and You Just Can't
There’s no time like the middle of July to talk about beating the summer heat. I mean, am I the only one who starts complaining within the first five minutes of leaving my apartment? It’s really hot! Nonetheless, there are always things you can do to make it better. And by things you can do, I mean things you can wear.
Think: breezy dresses, polished shorts, easy jumpsuits, and cute skirts. Sounds like a no-brainer, but keeping this in mind and resisting the urge to wear your go-to tight jeans every day can really make a difference. So to jump-start your warm-weather plan of attack, I’ve rounded up all the above and all for under $50 with a little help from our very own Who What Wear collection for Target. Simply continue on to shop each category and for a little outfit inspiration along the way.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
