Summer has officially arrived with humid commutes, sidewalk cocktails, and the anxiously anticipated summer Fridays. Whether you have plans to attend that friend from college’s wedding, are jumping on that long-haul flight for a much needed escape, or going to your local bar to support your team for the World Cup, now is the time perk up your weekend wardrobe.
Vogue’s Summer Weekend Essentials List:
From a road-trip friendly ensemble to a chic backyard BBQ ready look, and a city outfit perfect for quiet cultural exploration, we’ve curated ten looks for every kind of weekend escape, featuring plenty of the season’s It items—raffia totes, flip flops, and shield sunglasses.
Summer is the perfect time to be playful and bold with your wardrobe. Lean into bright hues, natural textures, and statement accessories to elevate your essential pieces. Wherever you’re headed, this is how to do it in style.
Staycation
Long weekends are a great time to rediscover your own city. Explore the typically crowded exhibits and shows, and finally snag that impossible dinner reservation. A black mini dress feels effortlessly chic when paired with matching monochromatic accessories, like sporty sunglasses, black ballet flats, and Airpods for the walk from Chelsea to LES.
