We’re having that first drink outside, the first day of wearing sunglasses AM to PM, the first walk outside in open shoes. And we remember the outfits we wore last summer while browsing through our closet for that first +20° day. Summer is the season we dress more or less radical. We either are super comfortable to beat the heat, or we slip on heeled sandals and mini dresses, there is rarely anything in the middle. To fill that exact middle part, outfits with sets are a real life saver. They can be styled up or down easily and therefore be worn at many different occasions. So coordinated sets are the ultimate solution for spring.
So the first question to ask is ‘What outfits with sets can we pull from our existing wardrobes?’. Many of us have already pieces in our wardrobe that are similar in color or material and will make great coordinated outfits. When looking through your wardrobe start simple. Different beige color shades can make easy yet stylish monochrome looks. And they don’t have to be a perfect match. Stying in the same color range can do the trick. So anything from brown over kaki to ivory is a good start. And the same thing counts for different kinds of blue or pink, orange to red tones. When it comes to material it’s easiest to go for recognizable haptics. Like linen, jeans, silk, corduroy or poplin fabrics.
When shopping for sets we want to find coordinates that last spring to summer. Either that means the button are shorts you can spend summer in or the fabric is on the lighter, more breathable side. The benefits of sets should apply to our sale. So they should be easy to wear individual or as a monochrome outfits and the single pieces should support our wardrobe. And since sets are a base that immediately makes you look put together personal styling will be really easy.
Classic outfits with sets
A light linen set will give you plenty of wears over spring and summer. The natural color combines well with all kinds of other pieces like jeans, or t-shirts. For a classic look style it with black accessories like Birkenstocks, the Gucci Horsebit bag, and some Miu Miu sunglasses. Add some of your favorite jewelry and you’re ready.

Weekly inspiration
The most popular female hosted podcast ‘Call her daddy’ has been online for around five years. It’s gone from room mate chats to A-list celebrity interviews. One of my favorites is the interview with Gwyneth Paltrow. It’s open, casual, and gives inside on Gwyneth’s past relationships and more.
