It’s about to be summer and we can’t wait to rock a crop top and shorts like it’s no one’s business. Before we head to our local thrift shop for all the vintage Levi’s we can get our hands-on, we decided to head on over to Pinterest for some inspiration. Whether you’re the Parisian wannabe, a minimal book nerd, or a badass social media manager, we found looks for you this summer. Prepare to take some screenshots because you’ll love these 25 summer outfits we’re obsessed with just as much as us. Let’s get started!
Linen is so perfect for summer not only because it’s super comfortable but because it breathes well in warmer climates. After a few good washes, it softens up so your sun-kissed skin won’t be irritated. Wearing all white linen can be such a fresh look for summer! Pair it with a pair of brown sandals and a woven handbag and you’re good to go! Wanna know what the cherry on the top is? It makes you look way more tan than you actually are! Viola!

Lime green has been popping up everywhere this spring and summer season. It really should have been the color of the year.

Grab a pair of lime green pants, pair it with a printed top or even a basic tee, and dress it up with accessories and you’ll be the vintage queen we all hope to see on our timelines. You can probably score a unique one from a local thrift store, or even shop in the men’s section at your favorite store. I would wear them with a graphic tee and some vans for a more casual look!

Your favorite brand probably has some sort of this style on sale and you can grab yourself one for your tropical vacation (a girl can dream right?)

I sometimes think that’s a neglected part of the body but so fun to show off.

Now, this is the perfect effortlessly chic outfit for anyone. If you find yourself to be a bit more simple, casual, and not one for crazy patterns, then this is the look for you.
