WHERE TO SHOP NEW SUMMER STYLE STAPLE | PLAYSUITS ON BUDGET

Dressing during soaring summer temperatures can be quite a challenge, with very few pieces of clothing seemingly able to balance being both fashionable and comfortable.

As the summer has progressed, a number of items have surged in popularity, including pearl hair clips, mesh body suits, statement earrings and my favourite playsuits.

Playsuits have long been a summer style staple, just have a cheeky look here and here, and they are set to stick around for a few seasons to come.

What I love about rompers is that they make dressing so effortless! This shorter version of a jumpsuit requires little effort to match and restyle, making it perfect for just about any occasion. They’re a real-time saver, easy to throw on and you don’t have to think much about pairing separates together.

The typical summer interpretation? It’s all about standout prints, cool beige colours and silky fabrics.

Smarten up your look with a beige romper paired with a pair of nude courts and a tailored blazer in a neutral colour. Add a structured bag such as a tote and you’re ready to close that deal.

If bare legs seem too daring, add a pair of sheer stockings to your look. Keep your hair and make-up classic and simple. For a more casual look add a pair of sandals with a straw bag and voila!

This season is full of awesome designs. Wear your playsuit out on the pool deck or to the beach! It makes a fabulous swimsuit cover-up and can be dressed to create the perfect casual look.

Wear it with a pair of funky flats, a floppy sunhat, a beach bag and a pair of sunnies to create a glam beach babe look.

If I’ve learnt anything about shopping, it’s that a little can go a long way. Remember, you don’t have to completely overhaul your wardrobe at the start of each season, all you need is a few key versatile pieces to take your closet to the next level!

And with such versatility and serious staying power, I think the playsuit is well worth a look and will prove to be a worthy investment for your wardrobe.

If you’re the girl who loves a good trend when you see one, then playsuits are perfect for you!
