Matching sets are trending this year and I’m on board! A matching top and shorts/pants are an effortless way to create a slimming silhouette as the eye travels vertically with ease with no breaks. But I’m also a big fan of rompers that delivers the same optical illusion. Either outfit will make you feel put together while delivering maximum style all summer!
Today's featured items are a matching set and a romper

Look for alternative stylings of the scarf top at the end of the post
Wearing a matching set require minimal effort and I love adding a bold pattern into the mix. Since a matching set consists of separates you can mix and match both pieces with other wardrobe staples in your closet.
It’s perfect to take on vacation as this one set can easily make up to four outfits and can be worn as a coverup to boot. The top will look fantastic with linen pants or casually thrown over your swimsuit or linen shorts.

A white tee paired with the drawstring shorts will keep you looking chic when the temps heat up! This outfit can go to morning coffee, a walk on the beach, or a casual lunch.
Even though rompers are meant to wear for casual outings, they can be dressed up or down with the right accessories. A straw tote and sandals or sneakers dress this romper down. Add kitten heel sandals and a clutch handbag for a casual yet chic evening look.

The bright 2 pc outfit from farm Rio and even the romper are so cute , but the long sleeves for summer Not so sure about it I guess you could put a tank under it and use it and a Jacket or Overblouse. I did purchase the Oliver miss color linen Bermuda short, tank, and blazer from banana republic and love it! Of course I love blazers and they are a nice coverup, You can take off the blazer and have just the tank if it’s warm. Hope you having a good time
That matching set from Banana Republic is gorgeous! Enjoy wearing it! I love to wear mine and I’m bringing this set with me to Mexico.
Don’t like it to basy
Exactly! Farm Rio has bold and bright patterns perfect for summer.
I imagine the Farm Rio fabrics are of good quality but I prefer a more classic look.
I love classic style too! But I love to step outside the style box, especially when I’m on vacation.
Thanks for stopping by!
