How to Look Hip in the Heat

With this summer heat sweeping most of the country it is difficult to think about putting on clothes when the only thing you want to do it take them off. Here is how to bring interest to a tank top and shorts easily and inexpensively.

Infuse color and interest through accessories. You have the power to jazz up your ordinary Ts.

LOOK 1
  • Bracelet: a repurposed necklace
  • Earrings: $3 from an art show
  • Gap Favorite Tank Top now $10.00 (note: they run larger so try a size smaller)
  • Just add: a comfortable skirt or shorts

LOOK 2
  • Necklaces: 1. Multi color bib $15 from street fair; 2. Ethnic rope $22 from Poland (note: anytime you travel look for interesting accessories you won't find back home instead of a t-shirt or refrigerator magnet, plus it is alway fun to say "oh I got this in _____.) 3. Magenta star burst for $7 at a consignment shop.
  • Gap Pocket T
  • Navy blue shorts from Forever 21 - $10.90
Beat the heat in style!
