Summer in New York is a unique experience! From picnics to beach days and barbecues, the events are endless! Feeling confident in how you show up is the key to enjoying every moment in the warm weather. Here are some key tips that can help guide your style as the temperature heats up.

  1. Accessorize!

You can never go wrong with the foundation of a white tank and denim shorts. You can put on a chic pair of sunglasses, tie a bandana around your head, or accessorize with a funky purse. It's a cheat code to elevating a simple outfit while showcasing your personal style.

Pro tip: Add in a pop of color to make your outfit stand out!

  1. Don't Sacrifice Comfort!

Looking fly does not have to be an uncomfortable experience. You can be stylish while investing in breathable fabrics. The key to remaining at ease is finding pieces that you can flow in. A good pair of sandals or sneakers can determine how your day will go.

Pro tip: Hit up a local thrift store to find quality cotton pieces!

  1. Pack a Small Umbrella

A summer in NYC is not complete without the random thunderstorms that cause destruction. Pack a small umbrella in your bag in case you get caught in the rain. With how unpredictable the weather here has been, it is always a good idea to stay prepared.

Pro tip: You can even pack a foldable rain poncho!

So grab your friends, put on some sunscreen, and make memories this summer while you still can!
