Summer Style Strategy

Build your wardrobe around cool, muted foundations: soft navy trousers, a cool gray blazer, and taupe or cocoa accessories. Then layer in your best accent colors like mauve, soft periwinkle, and rose-pink near your face for maximum glow.

If you feel washed out in your current wardrobe, check whether your closet is dominated by warm tones you were told look good on everyone. Camel, khaki, and warm beige are universal recommendations that actually fight against Summer's cool, soft nature.
