With summer in full swing, I am sure you are excited to be out and about, but you may also be really anxious about what to wear and how to stay cool, confident and stylish. StyleByLoren is here to help you with our top tips for a confidently fab summer.
Get styled this summer with Loren Lee Langenhoven from StyleByLoren.
STAY FRAGRANT AND FRESH Now is the time to become a minimalist queen and allow your personality to be your biggest accessory! Opt for loose fitted garments (structured not flimsy) that are made from natural, breathable fabrics that are ideal for summer. Avoid embellishments – these may weigh down your garment which will end up sticking to your body. The same applies to jewellery. Explore lighter colours that shun the sun instead of absorbing it. Extra Tip: If you are worried about sweat in your neck, wear a small cotton scarf. It will absorb the moisture and still have you looking super stylish!
DON’T FORGET THOSE GORGEOUS TRESSES!
The trick to looking effortlessly chic, is to make a little effort that goes a long way. When it comes to your hair, start at the bottom and get a good trim to say bye-bye to dry lifeless ends. Apply hair product from the tips to the root, and deep condition from time to time. Summer is great for fun with up styles, like a messy bun or sleek ponytail. This is great for corporate and casual looks and will keep you looking fresh! Extra Tip: Get an effortless beach hair look with our homemade sea salt spray. Mix 1 teaspoon of sea salt and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil with water in a small spray bottle. Spray and scrunch your hair to get that desirable wavy beach look. The coconut oil will counteract the dryness of the salt.
TAKE OFOF TAKECARE CARE YOUR SKIN! YOUR SKIN
For an everlasting glow (that is not oil build up), drink water, exfoliate regularly and SPF, SPF, SPF! Do not leave the house without using a moisturiser that has SPF in it. When it comes to make up, use a quality primer, which creates a shield and prevents your skin’s natural oils from mingling with your foundation. Opt for cream eye shadows, waterproof mascara to keep your lashes moisturised, and instead of a regular lipstick (which becomes messy in summer heat), use a lip stain or lip crayon. Extra Tip: Feeling clammy in the summer heat? Take a sheet of blotting paper and lightly touch your skin to absorb excess oils.
