Jenn P. Jul 9, 2010, 2:03pm UTC

☃ Shannon K. Wendt Jul 9, 2010, 2:06pm UTC

Tracy J. Jul 9, 2010, 2:10pm UTC

Melanie B. Jul 9, 2010, 2:15pm UTC
A pair of shorts and tank top at home. *barefoot of course* lol
But while out of the house, a sundress and sandals.
Ms Lee P. Jul 9, 2010, 2:17pm UTC
My favorite summer outfit to wear is my favorite all year long outfit. Jeans, flip-flps and T-shirt! Sometime I switch to shorts in the summertime, but I'm an old lady and old ladies should never ever be seen in public with shorts on so the shorts are only for around the house time. Have you ever been to Wal Mart in the summertime? LOL! I've seen people in there that I just know did not look in th mirror before thy left home! LOL!
colleen m. Jul 9, 2010, 2:17pm UTC
My favorite summer outfit is probably my spandex crop pants and a white t-shirt. That's good for summer camping and hiking!
Marsha C. Jul 9, 2010, 2:27pm UTC
I'm content in my blue jean shorts and a t-shirt
Linda G. Jul 9, 2010, 2:31pm UTC
A light weight knee length skirt in a soft floral and a cap sleeve t-shit
Lori A Jul 9, 2010, 2:35pm UTC
I love my yoga pants and a nice summer top thats longer with sleeves I hate to show my arms and I do not ware shorts- I use to in Michigan but I'm always in the house and Scott keep the air down to sub zero so I'm always cold . even when we go to the store you have to ware something longer sleeved or pants because the grocery stores also keep the temperatures at about freezing . I have honestly never been as chilly as when I moved to Florida , you just cat get away from air conditioning . up north no one has really strong air so you can get away with shorts and summer tops . here in Florida the only place thats warm is outside and than you have to deal with sun exposure and bugs so I stay inside and freeze
d d. Jul 9, 2010, 2:41pm UTC
i love wearing a Lily Pulitzer Skort and a sleeveless tank top in pastel colors with matching flip flops. :)
Caitlyn Pevey Jul 9, 2010, 2:45pm UTC

Brad Bechler Jul 9, 2010, 3:23pm UTC
With all the talk about "Going Green", "Organic", and "Sustainable" on everyone's grocery list of things to talk about, I've decided to follow suit, and experiment this summer. Summer has a way of bringing out a ton of allergies, heat-related illnesses, so, on, and so forth. So, I've decided to support the earth, my comfort, and allergies by wearing eco-friendly clothes, namely Bamboo. Believe it or not, bamboo is one of the most flexible natural fibres and it has some amazing properties that make it ideal for clothing such as bamboo activewear.

I wear light wear, pull over shirts, denim-type cargo shorts, and flip flops, ALL MADE FROM BAMBOO. Because it's naturaly hypo-allergenic, I don't worry about my clothing irritating my skin. And, because it's light, I am so comfortable in soaring heat. Heck, it helps to support the earth as well.


Kim K. Jul 12, 2010, 10:46am UTC
Sounds good to me, Bruce!!
Trish A. Jul 9, 2010, 4:08pm UTC
My favorite outfit to for the summer is jean shorts, a white cotton top I got from the Gap Warehouse for $4 and a pair of flip flops!

I love wearing white in the summer it feels almost like sitting outside drinking a cup of hand squeezed lemonade!

I like to wear my capris and a red shirt. I just love red!
Michele H. Jul 9, 2010, 8:51pm UTC
I'm pretty easy in the summer. Jeans and capris. Slip-on sandals and converse sneakers. T-shirt or a pullover w/ a light hoodie jacket. Now that I think about it, this is pretty much what I wear year round living in SoCal. (-:
R B Jul 9, 2010, 8:57pm UTC
A swim suit. More hours at the beach per week than nasty AC work!

A black and white sundress with a pair of Cole Hahn shoes. They have Nike Air in them so they're super comfy!
Rose Hill Jul 9, 2010, 10:32pm UTC
It's hot in the summer time in Florida so my usual garb at home is shorts, a tank top and flip flops, capris or bermudas and the occasional summer dress when I step out the door.

Love forever 21, not only do they have fun clothes, but pretty accessories too.
Janet "Jax" B. Jul 9, 2010, 10:42pm UTC

I like to keep my favorites close.
Melanie S. Jul 9, 2010, 11:22pm UTC

→ Victoria ← Jul 10, 2010, 9:25am UTC
Just shorts and a t-shirt, although I'm totally getting into summery dresses right now with this growing belly of mine. LOL And of course flip flops is a must.

Elaine A. Jul 10, 2010, 5:24pm UTC
My favorite summer outfit to wear is
Khaki capri's with a white tee, my go to out fit, the capri's are very light, (they are by Columbia & really don't wrinkle). I don't wear flip flops, I do have sketchers (open in the back), so that is what I wear. Comfort and casual is this look.
Vikki M. Jul 10, 2010, 7:11pm UTC
I like comfort so mostly just capri pants and a tank top and flip flops. Although I recently bought a sun dress that is the most comfortable thing I've ever worn and I'm not usually a fan of dresses!
Stephanie Ann Jul 10, 2010, 8:00pm UTC
My favorite summer outfit includes a pair of flip flops, sunglasses, a graphic t-shirt and a pair of jean shorts. Summer is my time to relax, so I have to be comfortable and prepared for the summer heat! ♥

My favorite summer outfit to wear is a tank and shorts! It gets really hot in Bakersfield (it's supposed to get up to 107 this week ugh) so it's important to stay cool. I slip on a pair of sandals if I'm going out and I'm good to go.

My favorite summer outfit is my khaki/tan calvin klein shorts and a dressy tank top with black thong sandals. At work, we're required to wear dresses or skirts, so my favorite summer outfit for work is a black and white skirt that is very lightweight and cool, with a black shirt and the same black sandals.
Kelly D. Jul 11, 2010, 3:51pm UTC
My favorite summer outfit is a tank top and a long gauzy Indian-style skirt if I want to be a little dressy, otherwise just t-shirts and shorts.
Tami G. Jul 11, 2010, 6:43pm UTC
My favorite summer outfit is cotton shorts & a tank top with thin straps & flip flops or a bathing suit with flip flops & of course sunblock always.
