Mistake #1 Wearing a black bra under a white shirt. Don’t be a fool!  It’s distracting and sends conflicting messages.  Instead, wear a white or flesh colored bra or camisole to create a clean, seamless look.
Mistake #2 Wearing white too tight.  Instead, keep the size of your clothing slightly larger than your body size.  Ease in the fit of the garment is key.  Some feel that they cannot wear white at all because it makes anything it’s put on look bigger.  Not so!  If there is enough ease, this will not be a problem.  Regardless of your size, you can wear white, look fresh and alive!  Don’t let anyone tell you differently.
Mistake #3 Can’t wear all white?  Unless you’re going to a wedding, all white is wonderful to wear in the summer.  It reflects the heat and keeps you cool as temperatures soar.   Try varying the textures and tints of white for this cool monochromatic look.

If you’ve been wondering what to wear when it’s hot, pancho and kaftan styles are a great choice for summer clothing.  They have a lovely flow which will eliminate fitting problems for a multitude of bodies and personal style types, and also provide air flow to keep the wearer cool. 

Here are some samples of flowy poncho and kaftan styles for summer wear:

Roberto Cavalli Kaftan Blouse

Paisley Embellished Kaftan

Missoni Chevron Kaftan

Etro Sequin Embellished Poncho

Embroidered Kaftan by Oscar de la Renta

The Draper’s and Damon’s catalog has some great choices for cool summer wear as well.

What do you wear during the summer to stay cool?
