The Dress Up Box Issue 005

Summer essentials that will also be your year-round besties 🫶

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned about personal style, is that it’s not about constantly buying new pieces for new seasons, but it’s about finding the pieces that work for your life year-round. The outfits that become the best examples of your personal style usually include a lot of repetition. Your personal style is about wearing what you love, over and over, in ways that feel good and true to you.

The pieces you wear in summer shouldn’t be forgotten in the back of your closet once the weather changes. The best wardrobe staples are the ones that move with you through the seasons and that can adapt to your life, your mood, and your needs.

So in this issue I’m sharing 7 summer wardrobe pieces that I consider year-round essentials. I chose these because they are personal favorites, and there’s so much potential to get tons of wear out of them no matter the season. These are items that will help keep you cool now, and will carry you into fall, winter, and spring.
