Every year just before Easter I get all excited about
bringing my favorite light weight fabrics in their fresh light colors out of
storage. I smile as I hang each piece back in my closet remembering the
occasion and memories I made in it the year before. My seersucker suit is one of those special
and distinct pieces that I treasure.
Seersucker is the Southerner’s signature summer swag. The
seersucker suit is a staple for church and weddings in the warmer months, not
only for keeping cool in cotton vs wool but for its pastel stripes.
I think that most think of the seersucker suit is for the
menfolk and a sundress for the gals. I
mean let’s be honest I do have a seersucker sundress but I also love a good
set.
The key to embracing the suit as a lady is to opt for a
dress and/or skirt as opposed to pants.
Yes, you must have pant suits but embrace the feminine side and add
variety. Especially in the summer, we
are made of sweet sugar that melts!
I like to get the most out of my investments and the key to
doing so is to separate the pieces for endless outfit options.
For this look I took the skirt from my seersucker suit and
paired it with THE hottest trend right now, an off the shoulder top.
An instant weekend look that’s casual yet very
polished. I swapped out the heels I would
normally wear with my suit for wedges.
I love this blouse for its short sleeves and the option to
not show your shoulders by pulling the neckline up for those occasions where
you might want more coverage or ease of movement.
Gals, get creative and mix up your classic and trendy
pieces!
Dress Beautifully in an Off the Shoulder Top &
Seersucker
