L'Officiel Austria shares important tips on how to improve your style on hot days.

In the summer season, especially in the hustle and bustle of the city, shiny and thin clothes come to our aid. On the other hand, it can be just as important that these fabrics are light but also of high quality and breathable to the skin. For this reason, materials such as linen, cotton, silk, chambray, chambray, "cool wool", and jersey are among the fabrics you can choose in the summer season. In contrast, you should avoid polyester, rayon and denim materials.&nbsp;

Choose a suitable fabric against the heat wave

Regarding completing an urban-chic look, footwear is an essential complementary item of your styling. Considering the temperature rise, sandals might be one of many options to wear day to night and work to play. Ballet flats can be a stylish yet secure option for hot summer days spent in the city, whether for a daytime outing or even for a wedding.
Espadrilles can also be a perfect option, with their linen fabrics reflecting the season's spirit and their comfortable yet stylish look. You can choose espadrilles with flat soles with the classic model or adapt high straw-soled models to your style.

Sandals are not your only choice

First, choosing lightweight and breezy materials in your clothing can offer the easiest way to wear black on a summer day. As we mentioned, linen, silk chambray linen, cotton, silk, chambray, excellent wool and jersey can keep you cool when the heatwave hits. Besides, these fabrics can add timeless elegance to your look while offering maximum comfort. Also, you can not cover your entire body but show some skin for a breezier feeling and look. Second, combining black with lighter shades, neutrals, or pops of colours can perfectly soften the heavy appearance of black. Although we love monochrome and matchy-matchy looks, especially in black, choosing printed garments with a black base can also help you achieve more energetic combinations on long sunny days.&nbsp;

There is always a way to carry the nobility of black

Having the essentials in your summer wardrobe can help you maintain your lively yet classic chicness even on the hottest summer day in the city. Considering the ultimate goal of getting dressed from a style standpoint while staying cool, the critical thing is investing in your wardrobe versatilely.&nbsp;
Effortless combinations like seamless sundresses and summer sandals, maxi skirts and ballet flats, a summer blouse or a knit top piece and shorts, a party dress and thong sandals can easily take your summer style to the next level. Of course, to add a final summer touch to your style, you can also opt for accessories such as an eye-catching pair of sunglasses, a straw bag or sun hats that can elevate your mood to summer energy on a day out on the town.

Emphasize your style with simple combinations

To build a timeless style, you can look for pieces that offer a wearable style. Since just a handful of pieces usually come with endless outfit alternatives, collecting the summer essentials for your summer wardrobe can also mean preparing a capsule wardrobe.&nbsp;
A summer capsule wardrobe can also be very suitable for adapting your outfits from day to night, as it includes pieces that can be combined in a particular colour palette while at the same time allowing you to make different combinations with a few clothes. In particular, a silk blouse, satin shorts or a long summer dress can quickly change depending on the other complementary pieces you will include in your outfit. And remember the statement jewellery!&nbsp;
