It’s time to ditch the raincoats and break out those cute shorts you’ve been eyeing for the last few months. If you’re feeling uninspired by your closet, check out these must-try trends for summer!
Beachy Waves
Embrace your hair’s natural texture and opt for a low-maintenance do that is guaranteed to turn heads. Grab some sea-salt spray or mousse and scrunch away!
Show Some Leg
But, obviously, within reason! Take advantage of Portland’s great summers and get your tan on. SPF first, please!
Break out the Sandals
Seriously, it’s about time! While you’re at it, treat yourself to a post-finals pedicure.
Experiment with Patterns
Shop Forever 21 or H&M for fun finds that won’t break the bank. Check out local thrift stores or resellers like Buffalo Exchange or Crossroads for one-of-a-kind pieces.
Cover up!
As much as we’d like to think we can get away with shorts and a tank, Portland’s unpredictable weather means that a warm morning may turn chilly in the evening. Throw a cute, slouchy sweater in your bag for a look that will adapt to the weather without (totally) covering up your cute outfit.
Rock a Hat
Rocking a bold hat is a great way to dress up a “blah” outfit AND give your noggin some much-needed protection from the sun.
Happy shopping!
