Summer Essentials with Madewell

While everyone has their own personal style, there are still pieces that people will stock their wardrobe with and reach for every season. Summer is known for its easy, breezy classics, and Madewell is a great place to find pieces that are classic, yet still on trend for the season.

We have a few more weeks of Summer remaining, so if you’re in need of a few wardrobe refreshers, here are a few Summer essentials that you should consider picking up from Madewell.

Dresses
Keeping cool during the Summer is a MUST, so obviously dresses should be on your wardrobe list. Because we are in a transitional period, however, I’d advise picking out dresses in darker prints, neutrals and more muted tones vs. super bright colors so that you can easily transition them into the Fall. Pair now with your favorite sandals, then switch over to ankle booties and layer a white or denim jacket over it.

Flare Denim
While flare denim is usually reserved for Fall outfits, now’s the perfect time to add a pair to your wardrobe. Pair them with an easy, retro style tee and sandals for now, and then swap those out for booties and a flowy, boho style blouse.

Leather handbags
In addition to jewelry, find a fun, leather handbag that you can wear everyday. Cognac and beige are great neutrals, but don’t be afraid to try a fun color as well.

White Denim
White denim that fits great, has a little bit of stretch without being tight and is not too thin is hard to find, but Madewell’s Perfect Vintage Jean is amazing. The premium denim also has a tapered leg, which makes it a perfect length for both flats and heels. Paired with a laidback, popover blouse in a punchy color is Summertime perfection.

Denim Shorts
You can’t go wrong with a pair of denim shorts in a classic light or medium wash. These will be shorts that you live in and can pair with just about anything.
