I love dressing casually for spring and summer because I want to avoid dealing with those fussy and hot outfits. Since I want to stay cool, I love wearing some essentials during these two seasons. These are just basic items that most women can find in their closets (like a striped shirt or a white cardigan). Pieces you can wear in more than one season or next year. These items are great bases for creating a lot of looks and when adding accessories, it really makes them a little more special.

1. T-shirt
An underrated staple that goes with almost anything. You can wear it with your jeans or skirts. You can layer it under your blouses. It is also affordable. Sometimes you can find a t-shirt as low as $6.00.
2. Midi Dress
I love a midi dress and one that is light blue like this one is perfect because you really do not have to worry about getting too hot. What is also great about this dress is that you can layer it with a cardigan, wear a shirt under it, or take your favorite button-down shirt and wear it over the dress!
3. Maxi skirt
Even though miniskirts are popular in spring and summer there is something about a maxi skirt that also fits this season. Not only can you wear it to work but also after work, unlike a mini skirt.
4. Midi skirt
A midi skirt is also right for spring/summer because it can be worn in various ways and is perfect for those who don't want to wear a mini or a maxi skirt.
5. Shorts
A good pair of shorts are perfect for those sweltering summer days. There are many types of shorts you can. Find the best ones that you feel and look comfortable in. Also, pick the ones that will keep you cool in this hot weather. Linen, cotton, and chambray are great materials to try.
6. Linen Pants
Linen pants will keep you cool and stylish this summer.
7. Sandals
A pair of comfortable sandals is great for travel and the warm weather. Find shoes that have excellent support.
8. Sneakers
A comfortable pair of sneakers will be useful especially if you plan to do a lot of walking.
9. Striped Shirt
This simple print is wonderful because you can mix and match it for other items.
10. Maxi dress
Easy to style and easy to put on. Find dresses that you can easily dress up or down.
Conclusion:
Always look in your closet before purchasing any staples. That way you will not have to worry about having too much of one item. Doing this also saves you money. Also, check to see what colors and patterns you have in your closet. Once you know what you have, you can figure out what new colors and patterns will coordinate with what you already own.
