From pools days to possible road trips or vacations and everything in between, there is an outfit for every occasion. Below we’ll highlight some outfits we think are perfect for any occasion during the summertime and beyond. Along with the needed bra and panty combinations to go along with the styled outfits, we know that can be a challenge all its own. Some of our go-to brands in the summer include Bella Dahl, Dear John, and many others. Let’s take a dive into what this summer has in-store:

Sundress Socializing
Even though we haven’t been able to do much socializing these days – we’re hopeful that the summer will bring people together to be able to have all the fun with all your friends, in safe ways of course. To get ready for this we picked some beautiful Bella Dahl dresses that are perfect for these days full of fun, friends, and family.
First is the Malibu Blue Cross Front Dress from Bella Dahl. With a mix of flirty and fun, and splash of comfort this dress is a great choice for summer. The material is breathable and lightweight to ensure you keep cool throughout the day. The beautiful blue and lilac color are just enough of a pop while still keeping it subtle – confidence is a sure thing while wearing this beautiful sundress. A tie at the waist highlights you curves, while having sheer sleeves gives off a more modest yet flirty look.
Bella Dahl keeps the style rolling with this easy, breezy dress. The Smocked Waist Indigo Maxi Dress is perfect for a picnic or day at the beach. Ankle-length, with tie waist that accentuates your features, while the leg slit gives you room to roam. The perfect dress for any adventure!
For an evening out, this Tie-neck Dress is perfect. Cinched waist and long sleeves give a feminine and flirty look. Lightweight rayon fabric and beautiful Rainstorm print, able to be dressed up for a fancy dinner or dressed down to walk along the beach.
What to put under it all?
Between the tanks, sundresses, strapless tops, and t-shirts, the options you have to choose from during summer are almost endless. The styles mentioned are obviously very different, so that begs the question – what the heck are you supposed to wear underneath them?
For wearing tank tops and t-shirts, we have the same suggestion: A Spacer Bra. Spacer bras look just like regular T-Shirt bras, but once you put it on you will feel an incredible difference. They are made out of lightweight airy fabric, making them the perfect bras for hotter days! With a bonus of having adjustable straps and fuller cups, this offers a custom fit for an ample bust, while the underwire provides a big boost with extra support.
A great alternative to a regular bra is pairing your sundress or strapless top with a beautiful bralette – this offers a great amount of comfort, while also adding an additional amount of style to your look. With the addition of some lace from the bralette, your look has some added flirty-ness that may not have been there before. You can choose to wear a basic color or add in a pop with whichever bralette you choose. Here are some examples of bralettes that we have:
Summer is all about fun! So we hope, in the midst of everything else, you find some fun things to do and are wearing some of these items to do them!
