29 Cute Outfit Ideas To Add To Your Summer Wardrobe Right Now

Say hello to rooftop happy hours and weekend trips to the shore; summer has officially arrived. Though many of us look forward to basking under the sun, we tend to spend more time ruminating on what to wear before stepping outside. Sultry temperatures place several limitations on the fabrics we can wear and the number of garments we can layer, so it's understandable that you might find dressing for warm weather tricky, to say the least. If you find yourself defaulting to your go-to outfit formulas, you're not alone.

Luckily, one of the best ways to reignite your passion for summer dressing is to get newly inspired. We've gone ahead and perused countless street style photos from around the globe. Ahead, you'll find a curated collection of cute summer outfits to incorporate into your own wardrobe during this warm-weather season. We've got an outfit for every occasion, whether you're grabbing brunch with friends, traveling to your summer getaway, or running errands in the heat.

Coastal Chic

Edward Berthelot

If you want to become a pro at serving coastal chic, invest in breathable linens, summery shades like white and cream, and flowy fabrics. For this specific look—which resembles Sofia Richie's coveted French Riviera style— you'll need simple elements like a white linen set, a soft sweater to throw over your shoulders, and accessories to match.

Crochet Cover-Up

Raimonda Kulikauskiene

If you're traveling to the beach this summer, packing a crochet cover-up is essential. I'd suggest pairing this colorful look with a white bikini set and a pair of comfy flip-flops that will carry you through the day. By the time the sun sets and the temperatures drop, you'll be glad to have something to keep you warm.

A simple pajama-inspired set is arguably the easiest summer outfit idea to exist. If you don't feel like putting a lot of energy into assembling an outfit, you'll want to have one of these tucked away in your closet.

A principal rule that every fashion editor swears by is that you must own at least one statement piece. I can assure you that a silk green dress paired with hot pink accessories will stand out among the crowd.

Jeremy Moeller

Button-down shirts have been around for ages, and they're never going out of style. Why would they? The sharp seam lines and crisp collars exhibit a sense of elegance that is so appealing. To dress it down a bit, I recommend matching this outfit with a pair of white sneakers.

The denim-on-denim look is such an early 2000s trend. How can anyone forget that Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake's double-denim look? Well, this trend has definitely made a comeback, but in 2023, we're opting for denim corsets paired with baggy jeans.

Jeremy Moeller

If you've ever wondered how to style ballet flats, this formula is your blueprint. You'll need a cropped cardigan, a pair of flowy white shorts, and of course, your ensemble wouldn't be complete without a handbag to match.

There are certain pieces of clothing that are worthy of investment, and vests are one of them. During colder months, style them with a long sleeve garment underneath, and when temperatures warm up you can wear them solo. No matter the weather, vests are always there to save your wardrobe.

Christian Vierig

The proportions of this outfit aren't particularly balanced, but that's what gives it an edge. The sense of contrast—skin-tight biker shorts and a loose poplin top—also makes it stand out.

At first glance, this outfit might appear dull, but I'd argue that it's actually a flattering formula. The black-and-white combination will never go out of style, and its ageless quality is what makes it so special.

We Found Creative Fall Outfits That *Aren 't* A Basic Sweater And Jeans

Cozy, Stylish Fall Outfits to Recreate This AutumnDesign by Yoora Kim

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

It'll be time to start brainstorming some cute fall outfits before you know it. If that sentence inspires feelings of dread rather than joy, it might be time to shake up your vibe. Fall fashion tends to have a lot of the same earthy tones and fabrics, but that doesn't mean you can't show love to fresher, funkier pieces for back-to-school season.

Katie Sands, fashion entrepreneur and Amazon Live Style host, explains that she likes to make unexpected styling choices when it starts getting chillier outside. Sands tells us, "It's obviously all about layering for fall, but with a fun twist, like the punk rock look with some prep flare added to it or a bomber jacket in an oversized fit that gives you the feeling like you just borrowed it from the captain of the football team."

Sands shares that the fall fashion trends she's been loving are oversized bags, preppy punk, and Kim Possible-style cargo pants. She emphasizes that these are trends anyone can pull off, saying, "Fashion has become less about just accentuating your body and more about just making an art statement — expressing yourself creatively, and not feeling the pressure to make your outfits all about showing a certain body type."

All of those styles and many, many more are about to hit your TikTok feed and your closet, so check out these cute fall outfits for 2023 and trends that'll get you hyped for the colder weather.

The bandana, the flared trousers, the snakeskin blazer—all are a vibe. Barbie really never misses when it comes to fall 'fits.
