My Formula For Keeping Cool, While Staying Classicly Feminine

I love the simple combination of a cotton tee, pull-on-skirt, flip flops, and a hat. It’s so comfortable, and I don’t have to think about it when I want to put together a casual, stay-cool outfit quickly.

Although I like shorts for a change of pace, I love skirts during the summer–especially no-fuss, pull-on comfy styles like this one I’ve had for years. They’re much cooler when it’s hot and humid and they’re very feminine. The pastel-color lace, above-the-knee-length, and swishiness of this one especially appealed to the girly girl in me.

I keep both the hat I’m wearing here and a lighter one, too, in my car. Whenever I get out, I grab one of them and put it on my head. This one is okay, but for this lighter-color outfit I think the lighter hat would have looked better.
