Floral tops, A-line feminine skirts and bright scarves are my absolute favourites in the summers. Also, some fun sling bags and bright flats are good for summers.

Same as Kirti with the addition of some flat sandals and colorful wedges. I do change my wardrobe out seasonally. I have big plastic storage bins in my basement and around April I pack up my heavy sweaters and wool skirts and blazers and bring up the lightweight summer clothing. I also pack up most of my boots and booties and bring out the open toes and sandals.

Oh I absolutely switch out. Winter is for darks and greys and summer is for light and white. I love having two wardrobes (well almost 3 with spring/fall) and hiding things away to discover again later in the new season. I only reuse basics and jeans all year.

But for my summer list, I only have red shoes. I skipped buying the perfect pair nearly 2 years ago and am still trying to find something equally fab. Summer is a short list because it barely exists here. too cold to be called summer. Spring, on the other hand, is forever. SO next year I plan on giving spring alot more attention!

Skirts and sandals! Feels so odd to put socks/shoes on after 3 months of sandals

Shorts, flowy blouses (especially silk), and BRIGHTS (though I wear brights year-round)! Most of my seasonal swapping is fabric based; wools, heavy sweaters, tall boots etc. all get put away for spring/summer, and of course there are warm weather items that get put away in fall/winter like summery dresses, lightweight skirts, tanks, etc.. I also change my base neutrals and the core items in those shades: In the fall/winter I wear a lot of charcoal and black (though I am on a mission to remove a lot of that black), and in the spring/summer I wear a lot of gray and white.

My climate has 4 distinct seasons (sometimes in one day!) and I am lucky enough to have 2 closets. In winter I move the summer stuff to the spare closet and vice versa.
Summer essentials are light jackets, knits for layering when required.

My must haves are denim shorts, comfy sandals and a good swimsuit. Many of my items can be used year round so I don't switch out with seasons. I like everything out and visible.
