My Summer Wardrobe in NYC Features These 5 Easy Pieces I Wear Frequently.

      Living in NYC, I have a lineup of favorite summer outfits. Anyone who has experienced the city's summer knows how unpleasant the humidity can be, so my wardrobe during this season consists of pieces that are light and allow freedom of movement. This translates to a lot of tank tops and dresses and skirts made from 100% cotton. Last summer, some of my most frequently worn items were from Cou Cou. The London-based brand offers breathable pointelle and cotton voile pieces that are perfect for extremely hot days. This season, I'm interested in new items from brands like Charlie Beads, Brooke Callahan, Flore Flore, Gap, J.Crew, Matteau, Rue Sophie, and St. Agni, among others.

      Footwear that allows for long walks is also a key consideration, including low-heeled sandals and airy flats. In the summer, the material is particularly important, as leather can easily cause blisters in the heat. One of the best finds I’ve come across is Camper's mesh Mary Janes, and I have the neoprene ballet flats from Gimaguas in my cart. Below are essential summer wardrobe items for my NYC lifestyle.
