10 Classy Summer Outfits You Can Wear on Repeat
Summer is all about having fun with fashion—choosing bright, bold-hued, or printed pieces in relaxed shapes and styles. Because after having been bundled up in cozy layers for six-plus months, it's really time to get creative and expressive with your attire, right? Right. That's not to say, however, that a more refined, timeless, and classy summer outfit shouldn't be in your wardrobe rotation. It most certainly should, because you'll likely find yourself in a situation, at least once, that requires more formal dressing.
