Summer capsule wardrobe 2025

Summer capsule wardrobe from top left: light knit top / pink statement earrings / white peplum top / ivory jeans (petite, also avl in reg and tall) / stripe pants / white skirt / black tee /

This summer season, I am sticking to a neutral color palette as well as black and white combos. For color, I love the Hermes nail polish collection for adding a little fun to my overall look. I am also incorporating pops of pink and mocha; keeping in line with current color trends, of course!

My summer capsule wardrobe is really a continuation of my spring capsule, with a few added pieces to replace the ones with thicker fabric. After all, dressing for the weather is a must!

If you are looking for flattering tee shirts which won’t break the bank, I am in love with these! I have them in multiple colors for summer; olive, ivory, light blue, navy, and black. I picked up two in black because I wear the color so often. They also wash well. I have been washing them in warm, regular cycle, and throwing them in the dryer. They come out looking great! Love that!

So, summer 2025 is all about classic style, keeping lines clean, and continuing investment dressing. Love!

Maxi skirts for summer

wearing: statement earrings / knit top / summer nail polish / belted tote bag / maxi skirt / boots (old, similar here) /

I love a good maxi skirt, and this summer they’re back! Maxi skirts are a hot trend this year, and I love the comfort and freedom of a good maxi skirt. Printed or solid, maxi skirts are fabulous in any style this year. Love that!

This maxi skirt is under $100 and I love the warm hued print. It also has a mixed print and tassels. Super fun! Maxi skirts for summer are easy to dress up or down by switching tops and shoes. This maxi skirt will look cute this summer with sandals and a tee for casual, warm days. Love!

Outfit inspo fisherman sandals

Spring outfit idea from left: wide leg jeans (avl in petite, reg and tall) / fisherman sandals / pink earrings / spring nail polish / cardigan sweater / small tote bag /

Wondering how to style fisherman sandals this spring season? Here is one outfit idea for block heel fisherman sandals. I bought this pair and I love them! The block heel makes them ideal for the wide leg pants which are hot this season, and they also offer some arch support and height when paired with dresses and skirts. Although fisherman sandals can be flat or with a heel this season, I prefer the block heel versions.

Fisherman sandals for spring are being shown in neutral hues for both the flat and block heel versions. I decided to go with black since I find it the easiest neutral shoe color to style. Although not shown in my shoe capsule for spring, these fisherman sandals are definitely part of my shoe capsule! I just happened to buy them after snapping photos for my capsule post. Ooops.

Anyway. . .

Stay tuned for more spring coverage and trend reports! Thanks for stopping by!
