This is the most approachable way to embrace the sheer clothing trend.
I enjoy seeing others embrace the sheer pants trend, but I've been hesitant to try it myself. While sheer bottoms can be stylish and sophisticated, they can also feel intimidating to wear in public. Recently, Jennifer Lawrence was seen in New York City employing a sheer-pants styling technique that I wish I'd thought of sooner. With summer winding down, I’m now ready to confidently wear the sheer bottoms trend, thanks to J.Law. Lawrence paired a dress over her sheer pants with a relaxed, loose T-shirt on top. Although layering might seem counterproductive in warm weather, the lightness of each layer compensates for it. The trend of sheer bottoms, along with the skirt-or-dress-over-pants style, had significant popularity last year and is making a comeback in fresh ways for the hot season. As a devoted fan of The Row, it’s no surprise that her only burst of color came from a green Bourse Bag that she carried as a clutch. For footwear, she wore strappy Prada sandals. I plan to layer thoughtfully for the rest of the summer with sleek sheer items like Lawrence's, and if you want your summer outfits to exude elegance without sacrificing comfort, keep reading to discover the perfect layering pieces and T-shirts to pair with them.
