Tie dye is making a comeback this summer, this style is no longer exclusive to dressing up as a hippie from the 1960s. What’s nice about this print is that it’s perfect to wear on hot summer days but cute enough to continue wearing on long summer nights.

4. Band T-Shirts
Another summer classic are band t-shirts. They’re perfect because they’re a significant step up from simple graphic t-shirts and they have more personality than a plain shirt. You can scour your local thrift store for that perfect classic rock band t-shirts or instead use this outfit as an opportunity to showoff all of the amazing summer concerts you’ve been to. Band t-shirts look cute oversized, tied up or if you feel daring you can always cut them into a DIY crop top.

6. Bike Shorts & A Crop Top
If you live in leggings but if where you live is somewhere that is way too warm for them during the summer consider investing in a great pair of bike shorts. They offer more coverage than just a pair of spandex by hitting you mid-thigh. They’re perfect for laid back summer outfits because you can pair them with a variety of tops. If you pair them with a loose-fitted t-shirt or a crop top they will look more Monica Gellar and less Tour de France.

7. Overalls
There’s a reason why overalls continue making a comeback, it’s because they’re incredibly comfortable. A good pair of denim overalls is something you’ll want to include in your summer wardrobe. The word “overall” can be intimidating and inspire thoughts of farmers and toddlers. If you’re afraid of looking like you work a baby who works in agriculture consider pairing your overalls with a cute bodysuit or crop top.
