Sally’s Edit: Summer Basics

I love dressing for summer but sometimes nothing can beat the basics in our wardrobe that we reach for time and time again. Effortless dressing is what we do best here at Eleven but, effortless does not have to mean boring at all. Think comfy casuals that are perfect to head straight out the door in whether it's for a day trip this summer or heading for coffee with the girls. In this week’s blog post, I take you through my top picks for the easiest outfits you’ll want to wear all summer long.

First up is our Frill Hem Vest Top. Every wardrobe needs a vest top. This one is even better than those we wear to layer. With its frill hem and button detailing with a scoop neckline, this vest top couldn’t be easier to style. Simply wear with your favourite denim shorts or jeans during the day and then add a blazer in the evenings for a smart casual look that is effortless to pull off.

Next, I love our Cheesecloth Wide Leg Trousers. Not only are they the comfiest trousers you will own but they are also easier than you think to style. Giving the impression of a maxi skirt, these trousers are available in 4 colours with my personal favourite being Olive. Wear with a simple white tee during the day paired with your comfiest white trainers and then simply swap for a cami top and wedges for the evening – not many trousers are this versatile and I couldn’t love them more!

Finally, let me tell you why I love our Ruffle Trim Playsuit. As an all-in-one outfit, all you have to think of is shoes and a jacket if the weather turns cooler. Think trainers or sandals for days out paired with a jacket for those cooler summer evenings. Whether you want to play it safe with the black colour option or you’re feeling adventurous and bold with the vivid orange colour, this playsuit is effortless dressing at its finest. Perfect for beach days, garden days and day trips out with the family, we’re sure you’ll be finding every excuse to wear this playsuit.
