“Gosh, I have so enjoyed this and feel like you have helped me sooo much. I feel like you have helped me get my confidence back at a time I really needed it. I also feel like a gained a really cool, fashionable frien (41).png

Summer is here! Can you believe it?! Would you be shocked to learn that 90% of my clients tell me that summer is the hardest season for them to dress?

I get it -- we have fewer options to layer with, we want to be cool yet modest AND we’re dealing with that tricky dance of melting while we’re outdoors then walking into a store and freezing in ice-cold air conditioning. It’s quite the tricky dance!

But have faith! There is one piece that is super versatile and a fashion cure for those summer wardrobe problems. (Drum roll, please) Meet... the cotton-linen blazer!

I have seven reasons why the linen blazer needs to be the next summer investment piece added to your wardrobe:

1. It’s perfect to pop over a summer dress to create a modest look for Mass.

2. If you’re wearing shorts -- it’s a great look for a more polished finish. Shorts and a simple t-shirt get an easy pop up of panache when you throw on this blazer.

3. It’s light enough to not keep you too hot, yet it adds that light layer to keep you comfortable in the AC.

4. If you have summer travels -- it’s really light to pack!

5. Since it’s timeless, you can easily pair it with almost any outfit and is fitting for almost any occasion on any summer day.

6. It’s perfect to toss over tank tops when you need to be a bit more covered (whether you’re going to a meeting, popping into a church, etc… ).

7. Since it’s a timeless piece, invest in a higher quality blazer because it will never go out of style.
