Essentials to have in your wardrobe this summer

Each year comes with its own trends that we love to follow and incorporate in our wardrobes. However, there is no wardrobe that is complete without essentials and basics. These items are there to ensure that we complete that trendy look. For example, a pair of blue jeans, a white round necked top and an all white pair of all white converse are examples of essentials each person should have in their wardrobe. So, if you want to ensure that you stay on top of your summer essentials items this season, these are the items you should add into your closet. 

The TrendSpotter suggests these essentials to have in your wardrobe this summer: 

White shirt 

This is probably not going to be the most exciting piece to have in your wardrobe but it sure is the most versatile piece. You can dress it up or down (make it formal or casual) and it can bring a lot of your looks together. You can choose to partner this up with literally anything of any colour in your wardrobe and it’ll look good. 

Denim Jacket

Yes it’s summer, but it won’t be scorching hot every single day. Even in summer we still experience chilly nights and cloudy days that require one to cover up. A denim jacket is essential to keep you warm when the temperature drops. 

Mom or Boyfriend Jeans

These types of jeans are perfect for the summertime. They have a loose fit which is perfect for those sunny days and they do not fit too tightly like skinny jeans would. These are versatile and can be incorporated in outfits of most occasions. 

Sandals 

Even if you are a sneakerhead, we can all agree that it sometimes gets too hot for closed shoes (sneakers, pumps, boots). No one likes sweaty feet and that is why sandals are essential for those sunny days. 

Denim shorts

There will come a time when you want to show off your legs, whether it is out on a picnic, at the beach or even just relaxing at home, denim shorts are a go to. You can pair them with almost any kind of top and you will be good to go. 

Crossbody bag

These are a more practical option for the summertime. It is usually the busiest time of the year, with a lot of people on leave and children on school holidays. You want a bag that will make you feel like all your belongings (bank cards, ID, gum, sunscreen and phone) are safe. 

Maxi dress

Long, flowy and breezy is everything you need to beat the summer heat in style. It requires the least effort when trying to put together an outfit. 

Summer Hat

Not only will this make you look stylish and add that finishing touch to your outfit but itll protect you from the sun. Straw hats and bucket hats protect your skin from the sun’s harsh rays while looking great this summer.
