The Easy Summer Outfit Formula I Keep Repeating (Because It Just Works)

There’s something so satisfying about having a go-to summer look you can count on. For me, it’s this: white jeans, a fun top, my new raffia macrame ballet flats, my embroidered tote from Nantucket, and the sunglasses I never leave home without.

These looks came together effortlessly thanks to some favorite pieces I’ve been wearing nonstop lately. I just swapped out the tops for a little variety—each one gives the outfit a slightly different feel but keeps it easy, polished, and perfect for summer.

The Staples I’m Loving on Repeat

White wide leg jeans: So flattering and fresh, they’re the blank canvas for everything.
Raffia macramé ballet flats: These are hands down the cutest shoes I’ve added to my wardrobe this last week and I’m wishing I had them Nantucket. They fit true to size.
My embroidered tote: A sweet little memento from my trip and the perfect carryall.
Chic sunglasses: They go with everything and instantly elevate any look.

Then I just switch up the top depending on the day:
– A shell-embroidered crochet top for something bold and coastal-chic
– A soft linen collared polo in navy or pink for that polished-meets-casual feel
– Or a lightweight blue striped blouse for something playful and a little romantic

It’s the perfect outfit you can wear for so many occasions. Lunch with a friend, browse your favorite local shops, or take a sunset stroll. And you’ll feel pulled together every single time.
