I'm an Outfit Repeater—Here Are the Summer Items I Constantly Choose.

I'm an Outfit Repeater—Here Are the Summer Items I Constantly Choose.

      I've never shied away from wearing the same outfit repeatedly. When the heat becomes overwhelming, I find myself sticking to the same reliable combinations. These six essential wardrobe pieces help me navigate summer days in New York City: tank tops, cotton dresses and skirts, sunglasses, cardigans, low-heel sandals, and non-leather flats. When I'm on the hunt for summer dresses and skirts, I always look for labels that indicate 100% cotton fabric, like Cou Cou's pointelle line. This material is lightweight, making it perfect for the city's sweltering heat waves. Tank tops are another staple I continuously wear, and I'm currently interested in new options from CDLP and Flore Flore. Whether I choose a dress or a tank top with a skirt, I always pack sandals or flats, a pair of sunglasses, and a lightweight cardigan in my bag, and I’m all set.

      Most days, I’m mixing and matching different pieces from these go-to items, which you can shop below.

      Sunglasses

      I always carry sunglasses with me whenever I leave the house during the day, no matter the season. Recently, oversized frames have become popular, and I've been reaching for my bug-eyed pair from Chimi the most. In addition to those, I favor classic styles from brands like Celine, Chanel, Khaite x Oliver Peoples, and Prada.

      Cotton Dresses & Skirts

      During the summer, I practically live in dresses. I often find myself taking long walks or lounging outside, so lightweight, flexible skirts are equally important. I particularly enjoy 100% cotton options since they are the most comfortable in hot weather.

      Tank Tops

      I must confess, I have too many tank tops, but for me, they are like underwear. Can you ever really have too many? When the temperatures soar in New York, they are one of the few options that come to mind.

      Low-Heel Sandals

      I recently discussed how I don’t wear high heels and instead opt for shoes that are two inches or shorter, including kitten-heel sandals. I purchased a now-sold-out pair of Stuart Weitzman Minimalist 50 Sandals as a substitute for Manolo Blahnik's Callamu 50 Mules. For a similar option, I recommend Aeyde's Vero Mules. I've also been wearing a pair of Worishofer's 251 Slides.

      Non-Leather Flats

      When I'm on my feet for long periods, heels are not practical, and leather ballet flats in hot weather can lead to blisters, so I prefer breathable options like mesh Mary Janes from Camper and neoprene ballet flats from Gimaguas.

      Cardigans

      You might think, "Layers for summer?" However, I tend to feel cold, and the air conditioning in restaurants and on trains can be quite intense. I keep a simple black cardigan in my bag, as it pairs well with everything.
