Fundamentally, this look is all about wearing the right fabrics. Cotton, linen and lightweight tops but even leather can be a viable option.

Some styling suggestions? Throw on a blazer and add sneakers or barely-there sandals; opt for elegance with a classic strappy mini dress; or go for an of-the-moment combination of long shorts and a T-shirt. The finishing touch should be a flash of glowing skin. try a shoulder baring black dress or leg lengthening mini skirt

Black may be your winter fail-safe, but fashion’s favorite shade can also stand the heat. black can be a chic and easy option for sultry days and nights.
