Since working from home, I've fallen into a rut of wearing the same pair of jeans and rotating between a handful of T-shirts and blouses. I've therefore accidentally made most of my treasured clothes redundant and have lacked any inspiration to think about new outfits when I'm barely leaving the house. But I'm determined to dive back into my wardrobe and find some joy in getting dressed again.
To start this, I delved through my Saved images on Instagram. I spend more hours than I'd like to admit on this app a week and always save the outfits that I'd like to copy myself. So for those looking for some summer outfit inspiration (that feels realistic for what's in store for this month), I'm sharing 44 outfits from my saved folders. Whether you're a shorts-and–T-shirt person or always prefer to wear a midi dress and trainers, I'm sure there's a look for you below. Keep scrolling to see the summer outfits I've saved recently.
