Summer Style: Ease into summertime with these elevated classics

From casual to athleisure pieces, here are our top summer essentials

Cotton, linen, and sweat-wicking materials are our best friends when it comes to dressing for this scorching summer. Whether you prefer keeping it basic, dressing up with minimalist t-shirts, or cooling off with bright colors and patterns in athletic silhouettes, it’s essential to feel cool while looking stylish simultaneously.

This summer, many brands are introducing collections that are easy on the eyes as well as the skin. From Uniqlo’s new t-shirt collection featuring Supima cotton with a butter-smooth feel on the skin, to linen options from Springfield to let the breeze in, and Lacoste’s stylish athletic offerings, here are our top picks from these stylish brands for an easy, breezy summer of 2024.

Uniqlo U

When it comes to minimalist basics, Uniqlo is one not to miss. This season, the brand combines their cotton offerings with Airism materials for fine-textured options. They also offer oversized silhouettes for a more relaxed vibe in a variety of cool-toned color options that are easy on the eyes. Whether for home wear or workwear, these t-shirts will provide a more comfortable feel.

Springfield Icon’s Collection

For smart casual wear, Springfield’s summer 2024 collection focuses on clean-cut looks alongside washed-effect designs.
