SUMMER LOOKBOOK – CHIC SUMMER STYLE OUTFITS

How happy can a woman get for not having to wear jackets and sturdy shoes? Very happy, let me tell you. I’ve kissed all my warm clothes goodbye and switched them up to shorts, skirts, tops and everything that feels light and breezy.

It’s about time I really start sharing my outfits here more often, so here we go. I wanted to do a lookbook, since those are something that I love to watch from youtube. Usually they give me new ideas when it comes to the clothes I already own (and okay, I’ll admit it: they also make me want to buy new clothes). Hopefully you’ll get some inspiration from this post as well!

SUMMER OUTFIT 1 – Light nude colors

Can’t go wrong with nudes, right? Nude colors are so easy for someone who’s used to wearing black (quilty). It’s a colorful version of it, if that makes sense.

The first outfit is perfect for a date. I actually wore this for our 6-year anniversary date. This outfit is very classic and beautiful, but best of all, very comfortable. I pay attention to the fabrics of my clothes. Here the top is 90% silk and shorts are 100% cotton. I love good quality clothes.

Since I wore light nude colors, I chose a bright orange red lipstick as a pop of color.

Shorts – *& Other Stories (similar *here, *here)
Bag – Michael Kors (similar *here)
Shoes – *Vagabond Carol Sandals (similar *here,*here)

Lipstick – *Kjaer Weis Amour Rouge Lipstick

SUMMER OUTFIT 2 – Crochet crop top

The second outfit is very girly and cute, thanks to the rosy tones and the bow detail in my hair. The star of the show, however, is a cream colored crochet crop top. It’s actually handmade by a Finnish blogger named Iines. As soon as I saw her crochet crop top collection I knew Î had to get one. I’ve been dreaming of a cute top like this for a long time!

Here I also wore the same shorts and bag than in the first outfit. I wanted to show in this lookbook, that not everything has to be new and different. It’s okay to wear the same thing more than twice!

Shorts – *& Other Stories (similar *here, *here)

Nude Pink Heels – Andiamo (similar *here (US) *here (UK))
Bag – Michael Kors (similar *here)

Lipstick – *Jane Iredale Triple Luxe Lipstick in Rose (my favorite lipstick!)

SUMMER OUTFIT 3 – Casual

This outfit is probably closest to what I’m actually wearing day to day. Definitely not heels. This year I decided that sandals are cool and I’ve been loving these black ones. Sincerely, almost 25 year-old Charlotta, with happy feet. Besides, they go perfectly with my newest black bag.

The black silk shirt is from H&M and I was pleasantly surprised with its quality.

What outfit is your favorite?
And – would you like to see more lookbooks from me?

I feel both very relaxed and very tired after the weekend. I spent it at a cottage on the countryside with a small group. It was also one of my sister’s surprise birthday party. Who knew keeping a secret from your sister was that stressful? It was all worth it though. The look on her face, when I took a snapchat video and told her where we were going, was so pure and joyous.

A weekend in the middle of the nature was also something, I very much looked forward to.

I feel very relaxed, because for two days, I didn’t browse my phone or watch TV. For two days I basically had no electricity, no running water or the sound of speeding cars in my ears. I feel peaceful, because I got to lay on the grass, swing in the hammock and float around a pond on a floating device. I also got to see a rare butterfly, carry my own water from the well and dance through the night.

But I’m also very tired. I’m tired, because mosquitos liked to not only eat me alive, but also keep me awake with their annoying buzz. I’m tired, because I hunted for two days. I hunted for horseflies. But only when they came at me – which was only constantly. I’m not sure if the word ‘horsefly slayer’ suits me, but that’s what I like to call myself. And I guess I’ll admit it – I’m also tired from dancing through the night.

Ah – the pros and cons of spending some time on a summer cottage. The count for mosquito bites is uncountable, but you just can’t beat a weekend in the middle of the nature. The feeling of waking up, opening the door, and being basically in the middle of the forest is just beautiful.

And coming home, taking a shower, scrubbing all the dirt from your feet and watching your favorite tv-show is also quite awesome.
