The Perfect Summer Look

Posted on May 24, 2011 by design

Summer is a time to simplify, get ready in a magic minute, and be out the door. With that in mind, Barbara Lesser has a collection of go-to pieces to make your day.

Sleeveless Rayon Top

The Sleeveless Rayon Top, lined in cotton lawn, is beautiful on its own, and lets you enjoy the day in comfort and easy style. Light, flowing, it can be a key layering piece that stands alone by day with a denim or a cropped pant, and works perfectly with a warmer cardigan or jacket by night. In our Wildfire artisan dye the top adds an energetic burst of color to your look as you head to the beach or that afternoon garden party.

Twist Neck Tunic

For a dressier style with a bit more drama, the word of the season is ‘tunic.’  This modified tunic is easy to wear with jeans or cargos, and the twist neck collar and patchwork shirring add just the right amount of unique detail to this flattering top.

The Cold Shoulder Tunic in our butter-soft jersey, is a must-have combination of sexy and cool. Trimmed at the shoulders with different sized silver grommets and accented with raw edges, this is a hip grabbing tunic with an attitude.

The Mixed Media Lace Tunic gives a wonderful sense of layering with ruffle and lace around the neckline, framed by the high-low hem. Three-quarter sleeves and a nipped waist finish off the detailing.

What says “perfect summer” better than the Perfect Summer Dress? A lace yoke around the neckline compliments our soft cotton rib. Understated and effortless, dress it up with that new pair of summer sandals.

Hitting the gym and ready to show off your curves? This dazzling sleeveless dress has shirring at one side of the waist to flatter and emphasize your lovely waistline. The asymmetric hemline draws the eye to your beautiful legs!

When the sun finally sets and the temperature dips, throw on this vintage inspired stretch cotton jacket. The bishop collar and the asymmetric zip line make this a standout piece!

True fashion lasts, and the Barbara Lesser line is no exception. Our clothing is easy to care for, machine washable, and made with pride here in the United States, in the fashion hub of Los Angeles.
