Summer Styles with J.Crew
Chicago is just starting to warm up, which finally means I can pull out the dresses and sandals I have been waiting to wear. J.Crew is always a favorite retailer of mine, and their summer collections consistently hit the mark with current trends and standout styles.
Thank you to J.Crew for sponsoring this post.
Summer Styles with J.Crew
One of the big trends this summer is the tube dress—a flashback from my high school days. Accessories are key when styling this classic look. I added a belt in a neutral color and gold sandals to accent the gold buckle. A scarf is always a key styling piece and can be added as a pop of color on a basket bag, as I did, or tied in my hair in a ponytail for later in the day.
The dress can be easily worn to a Sunday brunch, dinner at a friend’s, or a date night. I paired the dress with sandals, but you could also pair it with espadrilles.
I ordered a size medium in the dress, but a small would have also worked. The dress also comes in black and looks incredible in both colors.
Halter Summer Dress
Another favorite dress in the latest J.Crew collection is this halter dress, available in multiple colors. I chose my signature pop of red. This one is more of a brick red than a bright poppy. It works well with sandals, sneakers, or espadrilles.
I am wearing a size medium, a small also fits. This particular style tends to run a bit large.
Pack this for your summer vacation and pair it with your favorite sunglasses. Perfect for farmer’s market runs and lazy summer afternoons.
For the Midi Skirt Lover
I was surprised how much I loved this lace-trimmed pintucked skirt. It wasn’t intentional, but I ended up pairing this tank that was a little out of my comfort zone, and it ended up working so well.
Throw on the skirt over your favorite swimsuit for lunch poolside. I also styled this skirt with a blazer. If you have a summer meeting or drinks out and don’t want to wear a dress.
To continue with the monochromatic look, I added these white sandals that also come in multiple colors. Run tts wearing my usual 8.5.
A Classic Linen Pant
The classic linen pants from J.Crew are back this season and, in my personal opinion, fit better than ever. I am wearing a small in the butter color. Perfect for lounging at home with your favorite pup or throwing on over a swimsuit with a linen button-down shirt cuffed at the sleeves.
Can you tell I am craving a beach or pool vacation this summer? These pieces are sure to repeat in your wardrobe.
