As a dedicated fashion editor at Always Chasing Rainbows, my core mission is to become your ultimate personal stylist and shopper (at least in my head anyway). I believe that fashion should be a source of joy and self-expression, and I strive to translate this philosophy into every piece of content I create. My goal is to provide you with a wealth of sartorial inspiration, helping you navigate the ever-evolving landscape of trends while always encouraging you to cultivate a style that is uniquely your own.

Today, I am absolutely thrilled to unveil three distinct summer outfits, meticulously styled by moi, but specifically for you. Each ensemble has been thoughtfully curated by incorporating the freshest and most exciting summer arrivals from some of my most treasured retailers: Nordstrom, Revolve, Reformation, Mango and Madewell including top-tier retailers like Net-A-Porter, Farfetch, Ssense and Saks Fifth Avenue. A sophisticated wardrobe starts with versatile, timeless pieces. Essential items include a classic white t-shirt, cotton poplin shirts, and multi-purpose black trousers. Elevate these basics with refined textures such as satin shorts or satin skirts. And what about accessories, you ask? No problem. Accessories define personal style. Opt for unique footwear like the Aeyde Ilvy Zebra-Print Mules or The Row’s leather flip-flops, select a woven leather basket bag and finish the look with sculptural earrings for understated elegance. These summer outfits are designed to offer versatility, comfort, and undeniable style, perfect for various summer occasions—from relaxed weekend outings to more formal evenings; demonstrating how effortlessly they can be integrated into your existing wardrobe to ensure your summer outfit game is strong.

Explore our curated summer attire below suitable for a diverse range of events, from casual sun-drenched weekends to formal soirées. Each complete ensemble is on the high end, with many budget friendly alternatives coming in at under $100. Happy shopping!

My go-to styling for sophisticated, effortless charm is an unbuttoned shirt layered over a base. This particular combination strikes a perfect balance between polished elegance and relaxed nonchalance, making it incredibly versatile for various occasions.

Lace shorts are a popular trend right now, blurring the lines between intimate apparel and everyday wear. I love the juxtaposition of styling the ultra-feminine lingerie with an oversize menswear button down. Here, I'd probably tuck in the shirt for balance.
