LLScene's Top 5 Summer Trends
Summer is officially upon us and we can feel it more than we can see it. The hot, wet air taking over the atmosphere, the way our thighs stick and burn to the leather seats in our cars, and of course, the way our clothes stick to our skin as we go on with our everyday lives. We know you feel our pain. All that being said, it’s hard to think about style when talking about the summer heat, but it must be done. Luckily, the outfits we’re featuring today will keep you cool, comfortable, and stylish all summer long. The best part of it all, is that most (if not all) of these outfits and looks can be found at local boutiques and stores.

It’s All About the Straw Bag
Everyone wants to get their hands on these straw bags this season, but it seems like some of our local and even online retailers can’t keep them in stock. They are THAT popular, which goes to show you why Straw Bags are being featured in our Summer Style Guide. We are big fans of these bags for many reasons; they’re versatile, come in different sizes, and go with ANYTHING. Everyone loves a good beach bag and now you can wear one all the time! It’s seasonally acceptable.

Wrap in the Tropics
If you’ve been shopping lately, you know that wrap dresses and wrap-around rompers are everywhere, and we are totally on board with this. One of the benefits of a wrap dress or wrap romper is that anything with a wrap attached to it means it will be flattering. You can adjust the wrap to your comfort if you vary in size, make the dress long or shorter and dress it up and down. Summer isn’t officially summer without a little tropical delight to take over your wardrobe. Think greens, palm fronds, florals, and COLOR. Wrap in the tropics and you’ve got a two-in-one summer trend. Here are some of our favorites.
