It can get hot here in Woodridge, IL, and nothing is more uncomfortable than being too hot throughout your day. In this week’s The Townhomes at Highcrest Blog, we’ve gathered a few summer fashion tips to share with you so you have a more comfortable time during the remainder of the hot summer. We hope you enjoy these tips!
Fabric
How often have you considered what type of fabric your clothes are made of? If that thought had never crossed your mind, it’s time to change that. The type of fabric your clothes are made of can make the difference between being too hot and sweaty and being comfortable! Opt for clothes made of cotton and linen rather than wool and polyester, for they’re not only light fabrics but breathable as well. Though these are the preferred fabrics, keep in mind that they come with unique challenges, for example, linen is breathable and light but it is known to get wrinkly fast.
Fit
How your clothes fit you affects how comfortable you will be throughout the day. A fitted outfit may work well during the winter when the weather is colder, but when you factor in perspiration and the heat, a fitted outfit may end up being an uncomfortable choice. Looser fitting clothing will allow more airflow and thus a cooler clothing experience.
Accessories
What do you do when the sun is in your eyes and or beating down on your face? We recommend investing in a few accessories that will make your summer a little more bearable! The first thing you should invest it in is a pair of good sunglasses. Sunglasses keep the sun out of your eyes and will add that little extra flair to your outfit. Second, find yourself a good hat, preferably a straw hat. A straw hat will keep the sun out of your face and allow the breeze to flow easily through.
