Summer Fashion Essentials 2017

my summer time in Indonesia makes me realize that i don't need so many pieces of clothing to survive summer. it is kind of exhausting to organize closet for summer that only lasts for 3-4 months and the rest of the year will be cold anyway, at least here in Germany! the good thing is, summer clothing is all about lightweight, pretty and bright. i have rounded up the season's coolest pieces, so check it out!

first: off shoulder single breasted blouse 

i am always thankful every time i find a blouse in my closet. this one especially is perfect for a little date in summer. blouse always works for me when i think i have nothing to wear. (women out there, you know what i am talking about!)

second: wrap dress 

my go-to outfit for when i don't feel like putting in maximum effort is this! i love to buy a floral one that really bright because.. summer.

third: princetown leather slipper

you just miss something in 2017 if you do not know these! these are one of those classic pieces you have to own. they are also casual for a girl's day out.

fourth: silky square scarf

i am a fan of scarf and i wear this in every. single. season. it adds a little elegant touch to any wardrobe. when in doubt, just wear scarf!

fifth: oval sunglasses 

you know that these are a must-have this year, so no excuses there. treat yourself to a couple of fancies because these ain't pricey!

sixth: silky off-the-shoulder top

i think you guys already know that off-the-shoulder is for every summer. a silky one is my favorite for warmer days because it is loose and comfortable to wear on sticky days.

seventh: straw sun hats

the glam way to avoid UV rays: straw sun hat it is! relaxing at the pool or going for a walk in the city with this as a fashion statement can never go wrong, am i right?!

eighth: denim skirt

it is making a comeback this summer! so pretty and versatile, you can pair it with a t-shirt or camisole.

ninth: espadrilles flamingo

espadrilles just feel like summer. staying in the city, going to the zoo, heading to the country, they are perfect for any occasions. they basically go with everything, so these are another must-have you cannot resist!

tenth: bamboo straw bag

summer means beach and beach means straw bag! its ‘natural’ fiber colors which range from beige to honey will truly go with everything. definitely on trend this year!

eleventh: gingham shorts

it is a trend that everyone already knows! its pretty hard not to look like a picnic table with these, but these shorts are my favorite one when it comes to gingham!

twelfth: white slogan tee

light-colored clothing reflects light and thus resists the heat from the summer sun. you know how versatile it is, so i just have to put it on the list!

thirteenth: maxi dress

Day or night, maxi dress can look effortlessly chic and make a serious style impact. it is so comfortable on a picnic day and perfect for a brunch date!

fourteenth: sandals

summer means beach and beach means sandals, am i right?! this belongs to the essential beach packing list! 

fifteenth: wide leg pants

this is my favorite office basics that never gets old. it is a must-have in summer because of its lightweight. the floral print also gives the perfect summer touch. skinny jeans are for colder days, it's time for some wide leg pants!
