8 Summer Trends You Don't Have to Wait to Wear

12/05/2020 - 01:55 PM

In the midst of staying home [1], we're still eking out ways to celebrate fashion — so we're saying cheers to summer style and gearing up for a new season, new look. If you're interested in summer dressing [2] beyond your sweatpants, you've come to the right place. We're eyeing easy knit separates, day dresses inspired by our favourite nightgowns, and tie-dye [3] and sorbet hues to make our everyday clothes that much sweeter. Some of the looks inside might be begging for a night on the town (and they'll get one someday soon!), but in the meantime, each of these trends is also something you could very well wear in the comfort of your own home, backyard, or on a neighbourhood walk. They're uncomplicated and cool, so no need to wait — these are the eight summer trends we're wearing right now.

Polos

Like much of '90s style, polo shirts are experiencing something of a resurgence. Look for them in comfy, oversized silhouettes for a laid-back look, or opt for something fitted and in bolder colorways to take your everyday outfit up a notch.
