It's So Hot Out There, What Should I Wear!?

  In the immortal words of Nelly “it’s getting hot in herre’ so take off all yo clothes”! Well yea it is that hot, but we can’t all run around naked unless you live in a nudist colony which wouldn’t be a bad idea right about now. It’s been 100+ degrees lately in almost any direction you pick and trying to look cute whether for day or night in this weather is more than a notion.
 
  While straight sized ladies may be able to pull off a midriff top and some classic Daisy Duke’s many of my curvy sisters have embraced jeans and a logo tank or maybe a skirt here or there to try to defend our bodies from the dreaded heatmiser. Bake in the sweltering heat no more my ladies because YOU HAVE OPTIONS! Less is not always too much for the fat and fashionable. So what are the options you ask, because God knows wearing jeans isn’t gonna cut it every day. Get ready because here are some solutions to a summer that has gotten way too hot that will leave you looking cool and feeling smoking hot.

Get the Look : A Day in the City…

Where to Buy: Black Dot Print Tube Romper: Torrid.com, Black Agate and Pearl Gem Stone Flower Necklace with Earrings SET Hand Made PN28 HandHeadHeart: Etsy.com, Kelsi Dagger Shoes: Zappos.com, Sabina Deacon Ava Bag: baghaus.com, Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock Lotion SPF 85: walgreens.com

These stylish rompers are all the rage this summer and with the weather being as out of control as it is this piece would definitely be a valuable addition to your closet. OMG! It has pockets ladies we love the look! Give me pockets on any dress or romper anytime and it’s a win. Try sleeveless bandeau tops you’ll find that you enjoy the freedom. If you aren’t too comfortable with your arms out then try a light jacket or sweater. Finding shorts like this jumper would help keep you cool also because they are light and airy.

These patent leather skimmers will definitely cause heads to turn and hater’s eyes to roll. This statement shoe is great for a day in the city. Flats remain in style but if you’d prefer a look that will elongate your body then go for a pair of wedges. The fabulous necklace I chose is great for a day out in the sun since there isn’t any metal to burn your neck in the summer heat. Ribbon style or wrapped cord necklaces are great for hot weather. The purse is a great choice for window shopping or actual shopping if you’ve got money to burn. Besides carrying around a heavy tote in 100 degree weather isn’t fun.

To add a bit of pop to this look try adding some shades with a little color like a jewel toned blue. Be sure to add your sun block for your skin I’d suggest (Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock Lotion SPF 85: walgreens.com) and you’ll be ready to rock and roll. Pull your hair up if it’s long into a nice chignon and if its short then rock it with a nice hair clip. Incorporating some of these looks into your wardrobe will make your end of summer a little cooler. Love ya Peace + Blessings, Latrice
