Summer is here, for us older women this means it is time to stock up on a few basics for summer casual wardrobe that are sure to sell out.
I find that Banana Republic is a great choice that has many quality pieces I will be able to wear for many seasons to come. This summer whether I am on a long flight or a cruise in the Caribbean I want to know that the options I have will make the transition with me on whatever summer trips I have planned.
I like to keep my color scheme neutral and versatile so that I can blend in with work or weekend attire. I find the best way to do that is if the pieces in my casual summer wardrobe have a similar look. The casual look of a simple white t-shirt that can be worn in layers to a pair of black linen pants will make the transition to fall when the time comes. It is a good idea to maintain a fresh look, with different outfits that you feel comfortable in. I live in the South where the weather is humid with many a hot day so I love linen fabrics that are natural and flow easily with a pair of comfortable Birkenstock sandals. (To be honest this is pretty much my summer uniform.) I find with the right accessories these pieces can work for many great options.
