Simmering Summer Glam Tips to Beat the Heat

With summer parked outside our doors and ready to draw us into the sun, temperatures will surely soar. Every girl's dream is to look like they're having a hot summer, and no doubt, one of our nightmares for summer is when the temps turn us into a hot summer mess. How can we remain looking chic and glam when it's ninety degrees out? What do we do to balance looking amazing without melting by noon? This summer, let Impressions help you avoid the horrid sweat-soak to assist you in navigating the next few months of heat and unforgiving sun.

Say yes to Summer Dresses
Are dresses the answer to every summer question as to what to wear? Probably! Dresses come in so many beautiful cuts, styles, textures, and colors; they are truly one of the most versatile pieces in your summer wardrobe. Got a fancy date night? Then it's time to wear your Trend Maker Midi

Not feeling the Trend Maker Midi? Looking for the ultimate in soft, flirty, and feminine? Say no more, you'll fall in love with the Lovely Evening Cut Out Maxi In Green, flawlessly designed for days or nights out!

If you love a more boho relaxed style with lots of room and a dress that makes you feel light as a breeze while wearing it for every occasion, we've got your back for that, too!

Wear the Naturals
Two words: Cotton and linen, ladies. Natural fabrics will let your skin breathe while wicking away moisture, making you feel much cooler. How do moisture-wicking natural fabrics work again? Cotton and linen pull moisture away from our skin, then move it to the outer layer of our clothing, where it spreads and dries through evaporation, which cools us down. That's why breathable clothing is always a great choice in the height of summer. What are some of our favorite cotton and linen summer pieces? We're so glad you asked! Stay loose and chic with our Free Bird Oversized Distressed Tee!

Casual summer chic is possible with our Beach Villa Linen Tee In Airy Blue! Then pair the Beach Villa Linen Tee with our The Sandee Linen-Blend Pants for an effortlessly put-together, yet relaxed look for any summertime occasion.
 

Find an Easy Hair Style and Go with it All Summer
Find one easy hairstyle for the summer and go with it, or find a few and keep it going all summer long. You can rock a sleek topknot, an ethereal and wispy bun, a low bun with texture (clever, no one will notice when your hair starts to fly away), or the ever-classic ponytail. These updos will keep your neck and shoulders cooler.

Grab a Hat
You'd think adding a hat to your summer wardrobe might make you feel warmer, right? Surprisingly, keeping a cute hat on hand this summer might make the difference between burning up and keeping cool. How does that work? It's like insulation! Insulation works both ways; a hat that keeps the sun off your head and face reduces the temperature of your head in general. There are infrared rays in the sunlight, which causes your skin to heat up. Those rays are also responsible for premature aging, sunburns, and skin conditions—yikes!

So, what hat to grab this summer? Check these out, besties!

Barely there Sandals with All There Bling
We don't know about you, babes, but the last thing we want to be wearing in temps over 80 is a pair of socks and clunky, hot shoes.

Here are some of our top glam sandals that will make you feel like you're walking down the runway without all the sweat!!

Other Tips for Simmering Summer Glam
● Keep those peepers protected! A pair of sunglasses keep the bright glare out of your eyes and keep you from squinting. Check out our Sunshine Pact Sunnies, Coastal Jam Sunnies, and our Beach Tower sunnies for that Hollywood starlet look.
● Go lightweight, nongreasy moisturizer, primers, and tinted moisturizers with SPF this summer. Make sure your mascara is waterproof, or if you're courageous, try dying your brows and eyelashes this summer for a stay-put color that will never run or flake!
● After a long day in the summer sun, why not catch our Ice Facial Roller for a quick cool off and chill? During those sweltering days, keep in the fridge to drift away on a cold refreshing facial massage.
