So let’s say your everyday go-to outfit consists of skinny jeans, loafers, and a striped sweater. Does that even work for summer? Don’t worry, it does! If you love timeless looks, here’s how to translate that style to summer with summer outfit ideas for the person who loves classic style!
Summer Outfit Ideas for the Person Who Loves Classic Style
Linen shorts
High waisted anything is a “throwback” to some, though timeless to me. High waisted shorts are even better for summer when they’re made out of linen. Woven shoes keep your feet breezy while adding some texture to your look!

Denim skirts
Not only are they cute, but denim skirts are the weather-appropriate way to get in your classic denim this summer! You can still add your stylish touches that don’t add tons of extra warmth like a silk scarf.

Linen dresses
Like I said before, linen is the go-to summer fabric, and it looks extra perfect in a cute dress with buttons! When paired with cat-eye sunglasses, it gives a vintage and classic touch.

Cropped cardigans
Cardigans are classy, but for summer? Yes, when they’re cropped! If you find ones that are lightweight enough, you can have fun styling these pieces like a French girl!

Bodysuits
Bodysuits create a seamless tuck and keep the look very polished! White is very summery too, making cropped pants work well for summer.

Button downs
If you like crisp white button-down shirts in the other seasons, go for a relaxed fit linen top for summer. Still classy, but way more breathable for the weather!
