Look outside, what do you see? As the seasons have changed from winter to spring and then to summer, nature too has completely changed its pallet. It is now vibrant with the summer hues and I'm sure everyone wants to match this new summer vibe. So it's time to create a ‘must have summer dresses’ shopping list!

So first and foremost the most important thing in summers is to invest in clothes with breathable fabrics like cotton, linen, cotton-silk, etc. Whether you are travelling to the beach, getting brunch with your friends or just enjoying the summer breeze with your favourite drink, these will keep you comfortable and trendy!

Now let's start off with s0me classic summer dress pieces that every wardrobe needs. First and foremost is a classic white top. Pair this up with some patterned shorts and some summer sandals to create the perfect casual outfit or you can wear it with a pair of striped palazzo pants and a classic pair of hoops to make a dressy summer look.

Next up is a classic midi or long skirt. As a wardrobe staple, a skirt is perfect for comfortable and chic ensembles. The midi pencil skirt is ideal for a business casual look, while the classic long skirt can be worn on a day out. Throw on a pair of strappy heeled sandals for a fun dinner date, boots for a bold fashion statement, sneakers to run errands, or cute flats to explore a new city.

On those super hot days, camis are an essential summer wardrobe piece worth investing in. Loose or fitted camisoles look very chic with jeans,skirts or a pair of patterned shorts and can spice up the outfit with heels or sneakers. Not only can you grab a cami top in all your favorite colors, but they are easy to layer and can be styled in many different ways.

Up next we have something that spices up every wardrobe, something that always gives out the summer vibes and something that can be worn whenever you need to feel pretty and that is a summer dress. You can get one to match the vibrant summer colours, to go along with the pattern of the flowers or just a classic white,linen one to be paired with your favourite accessories.

Do you want to add a touch of ethnicity to your everyday look? Invest in a nicely embroidered cape, preferably made of cotton. A cape paired with a fitted tank top and a skirt, jeans or shorts will make a great comfortable summer look. Add a sliver jhumka to really indianise the look.

Finally to complete your ideal summer wardrobe you need a pair of classic white bottoms. You can stick with basic white pants. But if you want to spice it up, try going for a pair of embroidered shorts or a white linen skirt. Pair them up with a quirky patterned shirt or a vibrantly coloured cami.

Now that you've got you ‘ must have summer wardrobes’ in place, here are some tips, makeup trends and colour pallets to keep in mind!

First off, always invest in a piece which is vibrantly coloured or patterned. You want to refrain from using any dull colours in the shades of black, charcoal, violet and dark blue.

Secondly, summer calls for light fabrics that float in the wind. To give off the summer lovin’ vibe, opt for flowy clothing instead of anything that is skin tight. Find clothing made in light cotton, silk, chiffon, lace or crochet. This applies to everything: dresses, skirts, tops, rompers, and even shorts.

Another extremely important tip, Everyone should own a hat! If you don’t own one it’s probably because you haven’t found the perfect one for you! They not only make a stylish summer statement but they also protect your face from the harmful sun rays.

We all know nothing is worse than wearing a ton of makeup on a hot summer day. Light and natural makeup is the way to go during the summer season. Put away the heavy black eyeliner, dark shadows, heavy foundation, and dark lipstick. Instead wear pretty neutral eyeshadows, tinted moisturizers and nude, pink, or rose stains and tinted balms. This will go perfectly with your summer dresses

My last tip for you is to put away your large statement jewelry in dark or jewel tones, summer fashion calls for jewelry in earth tones. Look for bracelets, necklaces, and earrings in blues, gold, turquoise, pink, brown, green or even brightly patterned cotton bracelets.

Now that you've gotten some idea on what all pieces to invest in and the fashion trends you should look out for, go create a shopping list and build yourself a perfect ‘Must Have Summer Dresses’ wardrobe!
