5 Summer Colors To Add To Your Closet

Happy Sunday, ladies!ย  You may remember that this Spring, I ran a reader favorite:ย  These 5 Colors Are In For Spring. Today, I’m going to update that post with Summer Colors 2022.ย  The idea is simple:ย  for each color I chose in Spring, I’ve pulled a Summer outfit from the archives.ย  For each outfit, I’ve recreated it from some of my favorite retailers including Talbots, J.Crew, Ann Taylor and more.ย  The colors I’ve chosen are:

  • pink;
  • orangey-red;
  • blue;
  • yellow; and
  • purple.

2022 is the year of bright & bold colors.ย  Retailers like FARM Rio and Tuckernuck have embraced the color explosion, and I’m loving what they’re selling.ย  But if you’re not comfortable with that much color, not to worry.ย  You can always check out my post on 5 Ways to Subtly Add Color to Your Wardrobe.

As I said back in Springr: a little color goes a lot further than we might think in a world that often seems dark.

The Summary

ย  Today I’m featuring my 5 favorite colors for Summer 2022

ย  For each color, I’ve pulled an outfit from the archives and recreated a similar

  1. Like all your outfits, but the yellow sweater (not my color) and the midi skirts. Too long for my petite frame. Nice ideas though.

    Love the orangey-red popover top from Talbots — I missed this original post. I’m going to get it!
