STYLISH SUMMER TIPS FOR TEENS

With the fashion in- dustry going under rapid transforma- tion, there’s a new trend coming out almost every day. Being trendy or fashionable doesn’t mean you have to wear expensive clothes and buy ac- cessories from luxury brands. The first rule of fashion is being comfortable in what you are wear- ing. Whether you want to dress formally for a school event or something fancy for your friend’s birthday party, here are x most stylish summer tips that will come in handy:

1. Embrace natural fibres

Beat the heat with cotton, rayon, and linen clothes as they are light- er and breathable. These fabrics not only reduce sweating but also transfer body heat to the atmo- sphere to avoid any unnecessary increase in body temperature. Apart from that, they don’t stick to your body like polyester blends or nylon, so you are the most com- fortable you can be.

2. Consider white sneakers your best friend

White sneakers are a blessing in disguise. You can use it through- out the year because they go with every outfit effortlessly. Boys can dress the shoes up with bright shirts and blue denim pants, while girls can pair it with floral dresses and boho-themed accessories. For a laid back look, pair the sneakers with boyfriend jeans and a basic tee.

3. Pair shorts with something fitting

Find a pair of denim shorts that fits your figure and something that you can wear throughout the summer. Even though blue denim jeans go with everything, they can make the outfit look boring. Experiment with dif- ferent colours include light grey or white washed shorts, which go with multiple colours but still very unique and trendy. Style them up with sandals or sneakers for a relaxed look.

4. Experiment with prints and patterns

Summer is the only time you can experiment with dif- ferent prints and patterns because it is too cold during the other seasons in Canada. Printed denims, mom shorts, tie-dye bodysuits, and oversized shirts are the top summer 2019 trends for girls. Diagonal patterns, retro flowers, and tactile fabrics are trending in men’s fashion in summer 2019. Make sure to give all these patterns of a try and make your friends try them too.

5. Balance the co- lour palette of your wardrobe

Create a wardrobe that’s sustainable, so you don’t need to throw away clothes after the season ends. You can use these clothes creatively in other seasons and to do that, you first need to understand the colour wheel and how colour combina- tions work. It will give you a new perspective on match- ing colours. Three ways you can balance the colour palette in summer – wear clothes in the same group of colours, monochrome, and ombre.

6. Plan three months in advance

Before summer begins, take a wardrobe check to see if you have clothes that are in trend during the summers. Add them to your summer wardrobe and plan the outfits you will be wearing. Donate the clothes that you don’t want anymore or sell them online on second- hand stores including eBay, ThredUp, Poshmark, and Swap.

We are excited for the summer because there are so many new clothes to try. Are you ready for the fun?
