One of the best parts of spending our summer weaving in and out of town (more on our lake trip later!) has been the realization of how very little we need. While I used to keep a full closet stocked with tops and dresses of every pattern and color, shape and size, I’ve recently whittled down my summer wardrobe to the bare essentials: cutoffs, neutral tops, sensible sandals and – of course – a summer hat. And because I get a few comments every now and then about what I wear on Instagram (besides yoga pants, of course!), I’ve popped up a list for you. It’s totally shoppable, so if you’re in the market for any of the below, click to purchase!:

I am admiring your uniform. For the past few summers, my wardrobe has mostly consists of yoga clothes for hiking or else neutral skirts, off-white tees + tanks, my sunglasses, a striped scarf, and gladiator sandals. This year, it’s mostly one b&w striped maxi dress (it’s so cute + comfy that I hate to wear anything else). And someday, I will find the perfect sun hat.
Ah, I hear you on the yoga clothes! Your uniform sounds PERFECT – very up my neutral alley! ;)
Okay, I’m all about the color for summer but I’m in desperate need of some neutral, comfy, knit, knee-length skirts to round it all out because I hate my legs in shorts (and skirts are breezier in hot weather anyway). Any tips?
Oh I hear you on the skirt issue! A jersey knit pencil midi skirt might be perfect depending on what you’re pairing it with? I love these affordable options!:
