THE DRESSING â—½ TIPS
Summer Colors
by Marcy Lytle
I’ve really enjoyed seeing all of the bright colors emerge in the fashion scene this season. From greens to pinks to bright reds…they’re everywhere…and I love them! I think bright colors looks great on all skin tones and really make us feel alive when we wear them. I have a friend that says we need to be worried about her if she shows up in dull colors, because her bright fashions speak volumes. They say, “I’m doing well and feeling good!”
Summer Pink – I found this dress on Amazon and thought I might wear it for Easter, but I didn’t. I’m enjoying it though, dressed up or down (with sneakers). It’s so pretty, it’s made so well, and it’s super comfortable!
​
Summer Navy – Paired with white and camel, this trio can sing! I love a good vest and found this one on sale at H&M, and the navy trousers were on clearance at Target. I love a good sale, and a good combo.
Summer Yellow – H&M had a 25% site wide sale and I snapped up this yellow shirt with a pleather type feel. It can be worn open with a tee under, or closed, which is the way I wore it recently. It looks so pretty paired with a denim skirt or shorts or jeans!
Summer White – I can never stay clean when I wear white, but my husband says I just see spots more because I’m wearing white. He might be right. This shirt is a fun find, and summer white always speaks vacation and fun, doesn’t it? I feel like I need multiple white shirts, though, of all kinds…do you?
​
Summer Orange – What a fun find this dress is! I’m excited to pack it for trips and take along my hats. It’s truly one of my favorite finds from Amazon. The color, the feel, the fit and the fun in wearing it checks all the boxes for me.
Summer Black – I don’t find black to be hot for summer, so I still find myself wearing it. This knit casual dress is perfect for all sorts of occasions and to be worn with all sorts of hats, sandals, and bags. Another great travel piece as well, because it doesn’t wrinkle!
Summer Lilac – This striped shirt dress is a staple for any summer wardrobe, from The Loft. They too run sales often that save big bucks! I love a good shirt dress, and I love this color, and I love the stripes, too!

Speaking of shirt dresses, did you know that you can always wear them open as an option, as well?
