Tired Of Getting Dressed To Go Nowhere? These Fresh Summer Outfits Will Change That

While we were in deep quarantine, getting dressed properly was often recommended as a way of introducing structure to days that no longer followed the well-known rhythm of work, life, repeat. Now, even as the country slowly reopens, we’re still relying on the transporting power of fashion to take us where we might not be able to go.

It might not be exactly the same as a mask-less beach hang or exploring a far-flung destination, but wearing H&M’s new-season collection — which includes breezy silhouettes and floaty dresses made from 100% organic cotton — can make a shoreline bike ride or walk with a to-go frozen drink in hand feel more exciting than usual. Ahead, see four fresh fits we’ve put together as the ideal wardrobe for a (socially distant) summer to remember.

Straight out of Copenhagen, this look starts with a bubblegum pink princess dress made from 100% organic cotton that’s grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Add a printed headband and braided sandal — it’s okay, you’re not going far — and take yourself for a hot dog, the unofficial street-food favorite of the Danish capital.

The (highly specific) vibe: beachside supermodel style in the early aughts, but redo the blouse-and-shorts combo in less structured fabric and finish with a very of-the-moment woven pool slide.

Museums might be, at best, operating at a fraction of their normal capacity, but you can still get your fill of mid-18th-century toile with this co-ord set, consisting of a printed keyhole top and pleated skirt. Or, if you’d prefer to wear a vertiginous wedge heel at home, why not take a virtual tour? They’re doing wonderful things with technology these days.

Save this one in your memory bank under “Ensemble Ideas To Reference When We’re Allowed To Go On Proper Vacations Again.” Even if you’re staying local for now, a floral minidress made from 100% organic cotton provides breathability, while a clean white sneaker allows for long walks on which you can discover your city’s best park-bench dedications.
