What To Wear To A Summer Party?
Tina, here.
This heat. It can be tough to keep your cool in this summer heat. No one glistens anymore. We all just sweat. Which presents so many wardrobe issues: sweat stains silk. So they're out. White jeans are even too hot to wear in some heat. So they're out. And then these questions of doubt, Are my skirts too short? Is my dress too dressy? What is everyone else wearing in this heat??
All of us are struggling in one way or another to know what to wear to a summer party when it's hot outside.
1. Start with a non-body-con dress. In fact, toss all your bodycon dresses!

Add a hat. It always amazes me what a difference in my level of comfort a hat makes just by keeping the sun off my face. It's good for anti-aging, as well. Here's a similar Off-The-Shoulder Dress. If you'd like to join our shopping service to shop more of our stylists' picks, find out more here.

I should mention I always have a little ponytail holder on me in case I need a quick updo to get my hair off my neck. To see how you can do a quick, easy and stylish ponytail, click here.
2. Wear your crochet while you can - it's got built-in ventilation and it looks way too summery come late September.

I wore this dress this past spring, and it's still good in summertime. Here's a similar Crochet Lace Dress.
3. If you're in a place where it actually gets cooler in the evenings (lucky you!), grab a scarf so you have an extra layer if you need it.

On a cooler evening, or even when the sun goes down but it's still warm, you may feel good having something around your neck. I love a lightweight scarf sometimes instead of a heavy necklace.
If it's just too hot for wearing actual clothes and you'd rather wear a tank top and short-shorts, I must say, it's too hot! Can I get a witness?!
