These garments optically lengthen the summer

August always makes me a little melancholic. The days are already getting noticeably shorter, but are still warm and sunny. I enjoy the last mild summer evenings and long for vacation and the sea. Fortunately, there are now fantastically beautiful pieces of clothing that at least visually lengthen the summer and also exude a holiday feeling. What I mean are summery floral prints and souvenir-style garments.

    Hello! I’m new here and I absolutely love your style! I love to see some transition looks! So many people jump straight to Fall. Where I live its still hot out. Fashionable ways to gradually switch over from Summer without sacrificing comfort are lovely!
