What to Wear on a Summer Date

The possibilities for summer dates are endless, whether you want to stroll through a farmers market or spend the day at a music festival. Just as there are plenty of great places to check out for a romantic date, there are quite a few choices you can make when selecting your outfit. Even though summer is about being casual and cool, keep your outfits looking put-together with accessories that suit your style.

Farmers Market

For a mid-morning or afternoon stroll around the farmers market, there is nothing that screams summer more than denim shorts and a girly top. Go casual with a pair of shorts (denim cut-offs are perfect) and flowy top, then complete the look with some strappy sandals like Madden Girl Tambrey Gladiator Sandals. Even though it is a casual look, you can easily dress it up with chunky jewelry like Lucky Brand Jeans Turquoise Howlite Gold-Toned Bracelet.

Summer Concert

There are many summer concerts and festivals to check out, so there is no reason why you can't go in style. Since many concerts are outdoors, lightweight clothing is the best option so you can stay as cool as possible in the sun. Khaki or denim shorts paired with a simple tank top look chic, but not too dressy for a music festival. A bohemian style fits in perfectly with an outdoor music festival, so check out accessories such as a floppy hat from the San Diego Hat Company. Hats not only complement the outfit, but they protect you from long days in the sun during any music festival. Finish off the look with a pair of aviator sunglasses and you are ready to go.

Movie Night

Escaping to the air-conditioned movie theater is one fun way to spend date night. Since you are indoors, you can dress up in something comfortable that still looks appropriate if you head out to dinner or drinks afterward. Leggings or skinny jeans easily pair well with any top you have, so check out options like William Rast Sienna Leggings and throw on a loose tank like The North Face Crystal Tank Shirt. Finish off the outfit with shoes like L.A.M.B Kai High Heels to create a wow factor on your next date.

Summer dates are fun, especially when you are out with someone special. Whether you want to go casual or dress up, there are plenty of options to choose from that look appropriate for the date and show off your personal style. Use accessories to complement your look, or add them to a day look so you can instantly transform an outfit into a nighttime date look.
