@lucywilliams02Ready for summer? These outfits will help you get in the warm-weather mindset.
I don't know about you, but all I can think about is summer. If you too are dreaming of afternoons in beer gardens and summer parties with friends, then you might already be searching for the perfect summer outfits ahead of time. I bought a pair of sandals and a summer cotton dress within hours of the sun shining last week and have been looking for outfit ideas ever since.
Sometimes, summer outfits need to be straightforward and simple to assemble, with just the flourish of a key accessory or subtle injection of a new styling move, and sometimes—because the UK's climate is so unpredictable—the layering and construction will be more demanding. We've supplied the more advanced levels, of course. Remember if the sandals don't work due to rain, plenty of the below outfits work with boots.
So without further ado, let us introduce you to the summer outfit ideas we're dreaming of for 2022, provided by some standout looks and supported by the shopping pieces you need to see.
1. Shirt Dress + Chunky Sandals

@lucywilliams02Oval sunglasses are trending for 2022.
These were a huge hit last year, so I’m expecting them to be just as popular this time around.
2. Waistcoat + Jeans + Basket Bag

@smythsistersLove the tailored look? Why not consider the blazer and trousers to match?
I hear amazing things about & Other Stories denim.
3. Bold Pink Dress

The straps are thin, but their flat weave looks more comfortable than other options I’ve seen.
5. Skirt-and-Top Co-Ord + Pink Jacket

@abimarvelMango has some of the best warm-weather cover-ups out there.
I promise this is just as comfy to wear as your joggers or leggings.
