Their black hue adds a touch of sophistication, allowing you to walk on the shore with ease (given it’s not a rocky beach, of course), while the espadrille detailing mirrors the relaxed ambiance of the beach. Pov, if there are rocks on the beach, you can always play and pretend to be a damsel in distress and have your guy carry you. So romantic!

Now, let’s talk about the Eugenia Kim oversized sun hat. It’s a statement hat, evoking both glamour and sun protection.

The front-tie crochet top (the one I mentioned earlier but also the one in the product gallery below) is the star of the show. Pov the crochet pattern adds a touch of sexy flair without you doing anything at all.

You can pair the top with any pink patterned shorts are the perfect complement to the top. Preferably in silk (mine are silk), but any lightweight fabric that flows in the breeze will be both fun and flirty. But make sure your shorts hit at the perfect length to show off your legs, but they’re not too short that you’ll feel self-conscious.

The Tommy Hilfiger Elba slingback wedge sandals will add a touch of “the real old money” to the outfit. The wedges are comfortable to walk in, and the platform gives you a little extra height.

To complete the outfit, you can add a few accessories. I merely grabbed a raffia bag and sunglasses.

17 WHITE SILK SHIRT WITH WHITE SHORTS AND WEDGES

There is a reason why monochrome looks so good framed against the stunning blue sea.

Even so, for beach bar date options, go with styles that have an interesting twist; they will really elevate your beach bar date look.

The twist we are going for this time? Black espadrilles, of course. My black Castañer espadrilles are so comfortable.

18 NAVY SILK SHIRT WITH LINEN SHORTS AND BLACK ESPADRILLES

Black Castañer’s Carina espadrilles step gracefully across the sandy shore, embodying the perfect fusion of comfort and style for a delightful beach date. As the sun’s warm embrace mingles with the salty sea breeze, your outfit exudes an aura of coastal chic that effortlessly captivates.

The playful design is both stylish and feminine, and it will add a touch of flirty elegance to your look. The flounced shoulder adds a fun and flirty touch, while the simple design of the top will complement the relaxed vibe of your outfit brought by the shorts and flats.

No beach picnic outfit is complete without a wide-brim straw hat. The hat will protect you from the sun and keep you cool, and it will also add a touch of sophistication to your look. I suggest a hat with a frayed edge, a charming detail that is perfect for a picnic date on the beach.

SIMPLE SUMMER DATE OUTFITS FOR A PICNIC DATE

Summer is the perfect time for a picnic date. Pov all the seasons are, yet there’s nothing quite like spending time on a picnic blanket in the summer. As the sun paints the skies with its golden brushstrokes and the breeze whispers secrets through the leaves, you are having the romcom moment IRL. But what to wear for a summer picnic date if he takes you to the field and not to the shore?

Either of these stylish summer picnic outfits, of course.

21 FLUTTER SLEEVE LONG FLORAL DRESS WITH WEDGE SANDALS

We favour soft silhouettes in a floral print that really enchant a summer picnic date in the park or on a meadow. Long floral dresses look stunning in daylight and stand out without feeling out of place.

Steal a glance at the enchanting midi floral dress from &OtherStories that will grace your figure (btw I’m wearing size 0 and it’s too big for me, no cap your size will fit you perfectly). The dress’s flutter sleeves will mirror the delicate wildflowers that will sway around you, adding an ethereal touch to your look. The vibrant print of the dress will seamlessly blend with the picturesque landscape.

I paired my dress with the Tommy Hilfiger iconic Elba slingback wedge sandals. Their light beige hue effortlessly matches the burnt grass and the woven texture of the wicker picnic basket.

Speaking of the picnic basket, I hope you two bring a lot of food with you. Crispy grissini, a crusty baguette, and sweet white grapes promise to tantalize your taste buds and elevate the picnic experience.

And as you reach for the chilled bottle of white wine, the sun paints a dazzling display of light on the glass. This touch of elegance enhances the romantic moment, turning your rustic picnic into a sophisticated affair. So dreamy, right?

Reimagined in light blue or digital lavander, lace dresses add a feminine touch to a cool girl outfit. It’s time to find your favourite.

Ps. The photo in the collage above was not AI generated. I wore that dress and the sandals up there for real. I climbed in hiking boots and shorts and changed my outfit once I sat on the blanket. I didn’t think it was dangerous at the time, but looking back, I have mixed feelings.

Luckily you don’t have to climb anywhere for the most romantic date yet. You just need to get dressed, and your guy/girlie will take care for all the romance.

23 LITTLE WHITE LACE DRESS WITH SHEER LACE SLEEVES AND WHITE SANDAL MULES

Relaxed and at ease, airy layers will make summer dating a total breeze. Decorated fabrics such as Guipure lace provide the perfect amount of detail for something elevated and utterly romantic.

24 PINK DRESS WITH SANDALS

For a romantic date with your boyfriend, give an elegant little dress a modern spin by going for a flirty hem. The ruffled hem offers a nice touch of movement to counterbalance the form-fitting top. Pair with a pair of pretty pink sandals for indisputable charm.

By now, we already know where to shop for the best column denim skirts. Well, if you don’t know yet – go and check Mango and H&M. Pov, I bought the skirt I’m wearing in the video below at H&M, but it keeps selling out, so I added a similar Mango denim skirt to the product gallery below. It’s the same quality, and my sizing experience doesn’t tell you much anyway.

What you might not know, is how to make the long denim skirt feel modern. Pov, The fact that everyone is wearing long column skirts this season makes it outdated. All in all, tiktok and IG are oversaturated with column denim skirts already. So, how to style a long denim skirt for a date in summer/early fall? With a black tank top and metallic sandals.

You already know what metallic sandals I have in my mind/feet. But you might want a clue for the black tank top. Well, I’ll give you two. First, a quiet luxury tank top from the Row, and second a black ribbed tank top from &OtherStories.

26 BLACK TANK TOP AND BLUE JEANS WITH SLINGBACKS AND A HEADBAND WITH FLORAL ROSETTE

I guess it’s a walking ice cream date as the gentle breeze, paints a serene backdrop and we are walking around with ice cream in our hands.

In this picturesque setting, my attire reflects a blend of European chic and the defining fashion trends of AW23/24. Starting with the black ribbed tank top, that beautifully contrasts with my porcelain skin (pov splurging on SPF is the best investment yet).

To complement the tank top’s allure, a black headband with a rosette crowns my look, a tasteful addition that exudes a hint of sophistication. The pièce de résistance, however, rests upon my feet – the black Aquazzura slingbacks. These slingbacks are the perfect match for the modern skinny jeans, their seamless integration forming a fluid synergy that resonates with the current fashion zeitgeist.

Speaking of the Sézane Le Brut sexy denim jeans, their fit adds an unexpected charm to the outfit. Pov, in my case, the fit is oversized as Sézane’s smallest size – size 23 is too big for me; but your normal size will look skinny on you, which is just what you want. All in all, skinny jeans are coming back on trend for fall 2023.

27 OVERSIZED WHITE T-SHIRT WITH A LONG PENCIL SKIRT AND SLINGBACK PUMPS

If you are looking for a feeling that is more about fun, it’s time to embrace the playful feel of pink styles. Going pink makes everything seem more lively, especially if you add in an extra dose of cute accessories.

Paired with the blouse is a red midi pleated skirt. The bold red color of the skirt is vibrant and captivating, capturing the essence of late summertime energy. And the midi length, while maintaining an air of elegance, is very fashionable for AW23/34.

To complete your ensemble, opt for Aquazzura’s black slingback pumps. Pov not the same as I did, as mine are sold out. But an equally charming pair that is giving the perfect fusion of classic and modern. Also, the black color provides a subtle contrast to the warm tones of the blouse and skirt, creating a balanced visual harmony.

Point of view, don’t copy this look if you are not the old money. This outfit is true to me, but you might find it a bit too much, what should I say, a bit too plain. All in all, I copied it from my grandmother. But it’s not a dressup for me. I grew up dressing like this (with the top over the skirt – that’s the ultimate old money emblem), and I would probably still dress like this on a daily if I weren’t in the fashion business. I wear it only when the occasion calls for it, now (pov all my personal IRL outfits are put together to match the occasion and dress code). All in all, It’s refined but not overdone.

To crown your look, put on a headband. It’s a graceful touch that adds a hint of playfulness to your ensemble, while also highlighting the understated charm you’ve chosen for your outfit. With this choice, you will seamlessly blend into the country club’s refined atmosphere.

Also, the silk adds a bit of shine and glamour to the fit, and it keeps me cool and comfortable all day long.

The juxtaposition of the silk slip’s luxurious texture against the denim’s rugged charm creates a captivating contrast that’s effortlessly chic. The silk top’s lace details are a nod to femininity, while the A.P.C. jeans (btw I’m wearing size FR24 – they fit me ok, but they might be too tight for you, so make sure you check the size guide before you hit buy button) lend a touch of casual coolness to the outfit. It’s a combination that reflects your ability to seamlessly blend sophistication with comfort – a true embodiment of summer’s laid-back elegance.

To complete your look, slip into a pair of Diesel white sneakers (pov mine have a golden start, too, but they are sold out – so shop for similar). These sneakers infuse a dash of urban edge, creating a dynamic balance between refinement and a hint of street style. They’re a perfect choice for strolling through city streets, enjoying a leisurely outdoor meal, or exploring art galleries.

SUMMER DATE OUTFIT FOR GALLERY DATE

Mentioning the art galleries, a date at the gallery is one of the most popular date ideas this summer.

While you might not think of sneakers, mules and espadrille wedges as something to wear for an art gallery, but black Castañer wedge espadrilles are, no cap, the best summer shoes to wear when exploring galleries and museums in the summer.

Point of view, the temperature inside is always the same, but the dress code is not as strict as you might think it would be in a cultural centre. Obviously, you can’t just enter in a crop top and distressed denim jeans, but you can black wedge espadrilles. And here is how!

53 SILK SHIRT MATCHED WITH SHORTS AND ESPADRILLE WEDGES

Indulge in the perfect fusion of comfort and style as you prepare for a captivating date at the art gallery. Enveloped in a navy blue silk shirt and navy blue linen shorts, your fit reflects the seamless harmony of sophistication and summer at the gallery. The navy blue silk shirt offers a touch of luxurious elegance, while the linen shorts exude a sense of casual refinement – pov not too casual, yet a well-curated summer outfit.

Black Castañer wedge espadrilles will add a unique flair to your outfit as you walk around the gallery and look at the artworks on display. They ensure every step is cushioned in comfort, allowing you to wander through the exhibitions with ease, free to immerse yourself in the art and the company of your date.

Speaking of your date, your outfit choice reflects your thoughtful approach to the occasion. The navy blue silk shirt and linen shorts embody your ability to effortlessly adapt to the art gallery’s refined ambiance while maintaining a sense of comfort. This attention showcases your willingness to create an experience that’s both enjoyable and memorable for both you and your guy.

54 SHORTSLEEVE DRESS WITH FLAT MULES

Being a regular at art galleries, you can trust me; I know how to make elegance meets comfort in an ensemble tailor-made for a memorable art gallery date.

A short sleeve dress paired with Malone Souliers flat mules is my favourite combination that effortlessly exudes both style and ease. The soft, knitted texture of the dress embraces with a gentle warmth, while ruffles offer a dynamic flair that’s perfect for an artistic setting.

Malone Souliers flat mules, on the other hand, make sure my step is light and soundless.

DAYTIME FORMAL SUMMER DATE OUTFITS FOR AFTERNOON TEA

After a leisurely visit to the art gallery, make your way to a charming tea room, a hidden gem nestled amidst the art works or somewhere else in the city. The gentle clink of teacups and the soothing melody of classical music will welcome you, setting the tone for an afternoon of refined indulgence.

55 RED MORNING DRESS WITH HIGH HEEL SANDALS

As you take your seats, you will be presented with an array of delicate tea blends, each one a fragrant waiting to be explored. The table should be adorned with fine china (trust me, you will pay for bone china even if they serve your tea in a ceramic mug and treats on ceramic plates), exquisite teapots, and an assortment of dainty pastries and finger sandwiches – a feast for both the eyes and the palate.

But it’s for the ceramics that I suggest you pay them back with sandals and not the closed toe shoes, which are a part of the proper afternoon tea dress code.

Surely, you will not be Antonia (like someone who looks like she was up to cosplay even though she really isn’t) in Stuart Weitzman metallic sandals paired with a fabulous Self Portrait red dress. But it is essential that you know the afternoon tea dress code if you are about to break it with this otherwise fairly elegant summer date look.

WALKING DATE OUTFITS SUMMER

In the Bridgeton era, I would suggest you wore that stunning dress to promenade as well. But it’s summer 2023 and dressing up for a walking date comes with its own set of rules. You don’t want anything restricting or hard to walk in, but it is still important you don’t show up in sweatshorts and a hoodie.

56 TANK TOP WITH LINEN SHORTS AND AIR JORDANS

Choose a soothing shade of neutrals or delicate pastels to keep you feeling calm and collected as you walk through the park.

57 LACE DRESS WITH PRETTY SHOES AND PARASOL

58 CROP TOP AND SHORTS WITH FLAT MULES AND WIDE-BRIM HAT

RAINING DAY DATE OUTFITS FOR SUMMER 2023

Pov, I can’t help picturing the two of us hand in hand and with a bottle of champagne (stolen from our wedding reception) running down the rain-soaked stairs, seeking shelter under the Point du Alexandre III.

But my platform wedge sandals remained unscathed. While I hope you don’t get caught by a storm in Miami, if by chance you find yourself in a similar predicament…
