Summer has made its official entrance, and that means it’s time to switch to your summer wardrobe.

An all or mostly-black outfit will help you look put together in seconds.

To combat this, breezy summer dresses, linen pants, and shorts should be your go-to.

Accessories are a great way to make an outfit more interesting, too.

Add a pair of statement earrings or a large necklace to add dimension to your look.

Simple black heels are always chic, but metallic heels will bring extra glamour to an outfit.

Cutout details

Hop on thecutout trendthis summer with a black cutout dress.

Not only will a center cutout help keep you cool (more breathing room, anyone?

), but it will also break up an all black outfit, particularly if your dress is longer.

The cutout in question doesn’t have to be huge.

Even just a sliver of midriff will have the same effect and give your outfit extra dimension.

Finish your look with sandals and a pair of oversized sunglasses for a casual vibe.

A midi dress that’s either backless or features a lower back will look super summery.

From there, grab your smallest bag and a pair of sunglasses, and you’re set.

Moreover, the simplicity of this outfit makes it a solid choice for vacation.

As crochet is so summery, sandals would be the best footwear choice to pair with your crochet dress.

Either way, the versatility of a black crochet dress makes it a summer wardrobe must-have.

For contrast, pair your look with white sneakers or even ones with a colorful design.

Oversized t-shirt with denim shorts, tailored shorts with a cropped tee the options are endless.

The latter works best if your shorts are slightly tailored or pleated instead of more casual denim shorts.

Intentional layering will not only keep you warm but add an effortless vibe to your look, too.

The trick is to figure out proportions.

Instead, go for a jacket with a slightly cropped silhouette.

Either opt for a mini length or save the style for shorter events.

If you want to stick to all black, there are plenty of black cowboy boots to pick from.

This look is also ideal for festivals and concerts.

Changes in fabric will bring new depth to your look and ensure it doesn’t look flat.
