If you have an eye for minimalism, clean lines, streamlined silhouettes, and neutral colors may be characteristics of your wardrobe but you can always make your style modern with sharp structures. Like Amy, you may start by going for an architecturally styled dress, boxy tops, structured trousers, backless dress, or even topping your loose outfit with a structured blazer. If you plan to wear a breezy off-shoulder blouse, pair it with boxy trousers to add some structure to your silhouette. This way, you’ll make your minimalist style more fashion-forward while keeping it summer appropriate.

  1. Trade your skinny jeans with a pair of culottes or paper-bag waist pants.

Denim jeans and cut-off shorts may be your first options when it comes to weekend dressing, but you can update your style by trading them to a pair of culottes or paper-bag waist pants that looks trendy yet chic. Like Amy, get multiple shades on your trousers that can be versatile to match with your basic tops. White trousers will look elegantly classy with a navy tee while a pair of pink pants will look trendy with a red bandeau top. Earthy tones like camel, rust, red-orange and such look grounded and perfect for summer getaways and picnics.

  1. Resort to modern yet effortless prints.

Straw hats, gladiator sandals, lace-up heels, strappy flats, tote bags, and sunglasses are some of the summer-inspired accessories you can’t forget.
