 Sunglasses

More sun this season means all the more reason to up your steeze. Something as simple as a pair of shades not only boosts your your look but can add an air of cool confidence when worn. Ray-Bans remain a firm favourite this year with stylish models, worn not just as accessories but as modern eye wear to those who need eye care.

Vests

A summer essential, make sure you’re in possession of a few vests during the hotter months and be sure to buy them in bulk. Its safe to say they do look good on almost all who wear them, so to stand out try a variety of  multicoloured, graphic and statement prints. As a central piece dominating the upper body, it’s nice to showcase a bit of your personality through your summer wear.

Something striped

If there’s one wardrobe must have, nothing sets the mood of holiday fun, sun, babes and beaches like stripes. They are not too dramatic but never dull, with popular colour choices  such as burgundy, dress blue and teal. Be sure to consider the thickness and direction of stripes and compare with other stripe types to decide which style best suits you. Otherwise, play it safe with the traditional sailor blue on white.

Allstars

The optical white Converse Allstars have been unanimously made the statement of summer casual footwear. We all know they don’t hold out during the contrast months of fall and winter due to the dreary weather; although most people don’t fuss much over the stains and scuffs until holes start to appear. The Allstars are classic common favourites. They pretty much adapt to all  attire and wardrobe styles.

Shorts

A definite essential is to have shorts on deck. The variety from high end to high street is so abundant that there is really no excuse not to own at least 5 pairs. Try the differing lengths of cropped bottoms, 3 quarter lengths and above the knee. Fabrics are another thing to be attentive about, bearing in mind where you’ll be and the temperature. Once again, make sure you take advantage of the various prints and patterns there are to choose from.

Toms

For every pair of TOMS purchased, a pair given to a child in need, hence their slogan ‘One for One’. TOMS may have to be one of the most comfortable Ultimate slip on shoe around with their rubber coloured or neutral coloured out sole and soft leather insole with an arch to support the wearers stride. The flat shoe comes in various colours and models. Perfect for those no socks, extreme heat days.

Cologne

For summer it’s essential that your bodily odor isn’t a fragrance of funk. Switch up what you normally wear in winter (which are usually something intense with spices, musk or a little woodsy) and try less over powering, lighter scents of something sweet, fresh or even herbal. See how they compliment you in the hot air.
