Styling for summer is always exciting and I’ve picked some of the hottest trends to give your summer look the edge it deserves.

Before I run down my list of the hottest items for summer, it's important to remember that you don't have to wear all the newest trends each season.
My advice is to only invest in those pieces that you actually like and will get the most use out of.
That being said, let's dive right into the hottest summer style trends.
1. White Dresses
No matter where you are headed this summer, a white dress will effortlessly take you from day to night. This year a white dress is particularly on trend; however, a white dress is timeless because it always screams summer style!
A white dress is the ultimate versatile piece because you can dress it up with heels and a cardigan or down with flip flops and a denim jacket.
The best part about a white dress is that it will be appropriate no matter what event you are styling it for!
Style Tip: A white dress in any length has been spotted all over the runways. So go ahead and purchase a mini, maxi or midi white dress (or grab one from your closet) and you will be stylishly on trend for your next summer soirée!
2. Toe Ring Sandals
Toe ring sandals are the perfect summer style trend to invest in because they can be dressed up with a summer dress or down with a denim cutoffs or a bathing suit cover-up!
Trust me, a toe ring sandal is the perfect way to show off your summer pedicure.
Style Tip: While thong sandals come and go, invest in a pair of toe ring sandals with metallic hardware to add a statement to your denim cutoffs and basic white t-shirt!
3. Shorts
Nothing helps beat the heat better than a breezy pair of shorts. Whether you invest in a pair of linen, denim or cotton shorts, you’ll be on trend this summer.
The best part is that any length short is on trend this summer!
So dress up a pair of bermuda shorts with heels and a blazer, or dress down a pair of linen micro shorts with sneakers or flip flops. Either way you’ll reach for your shorts all summer long, on beach days or coffee dates!
Style Tip: Invest in a short set for an easy way to dress the trend. After all, you can wear the top and shorts together as a set or mix it up by wearing them separately! It's a win-win for any stylish girl!
4. Chunky Silver Jewelry
From thick chains to elaborate earrings, charms, pendants, cuffs and rings, this is the season of silver jewelry.
Silver jewelry is increasingly popular because it can be worn to fancy summer parties or on everyday summer errands.

5. Statement Belts
Belts are having a moment in 2024 and nothing ties an outfit together better than a great belt. So go ahead and splurge on a stellar belt or two this summer.
Belts can be styled with anything from jumpsuits and rompers to summery dresses.

Remember those crochet pieces your grandma used to make? Well, they're back, and they’re cooler than ever!
Crochet details have become an essential item for summer 2024. Look for crochet in dresses, skirts and tops for that breezy look that epitomizes summertime fun!
Crochet is the ultimate summer trend because it's effortlessly chic and perfect for everything from beach days to brunch dates.
