College Fashion Street Style Roundup: July 2010
I don’t know about you, but I’m loving my summer so far. My June was full of family get-togethers, car sing-alongs with friends, and lots of glorious sunshine. And although admittedly I’m sad to see June go, I am also PUMPED for July! Backyard bbqs, family reunions, and fireworks are calling my name and I can’t wait!
I’m sure you’ve all got some fun summer plans, too, and if you’re stumped about what to wear, have no fear: I’ve picked out some of my favorite summer street style looks from all around the interweb and have broken them down into outfits you can wear yourself. Interested? Read on!
Maxi-ed Out

I loooooove this girl’s whole look. She looks boho-chic from head to toe and her outfit is perfectly summer-appropriate. I love the cutouts on her maxi dress, and those red lips are the pièce de résistance of the look.
For my inspired outfit, I went short instead of long, choosing an equally adorable floral halter dress with a similar print. To accessorize, I picked out this really cool octopus bangle that adds a jazzy touch to the outfit. For shoes, I chose some cutout flats. In case you get cold, I pulled a military jacket in black that I guarantee will keep you warm. Finally, to pull the whole outfit together, I picked a great red lip color that will brighten your whole look- one swipe and you’ll look picture-perfect.
Headcase

I love this girl’s entire outfit: it’s so simple yet so chic. I love the turban headband, the floaty blouse and loafer combo, and especially those socks! (So adorable!)
To recreate this outfit, I picked out a cute floral jumper that is super easy to throw on when you’re having a lazy day. Pair that with the sock & loafer combo, the stackable rings I pulled, and that turban headband and you’re set to go. In this look, you’ll be ready to play no matter what your adventure is!
Creamsicle

The color combo in this outfit is ridonkulous (but in a good way). It totally reminds me of orange sherbet ice cream, or a creamsicle! I love the bright orange and her cute unicorn necklace is just over-the-top!
To recreate the look, I found a cool bandage skirt in a coral color- coral is SO fun for summer and is a definite wardrobe staple since it adds spice to any outfit. For the top, I chose a cool pocket tank that I recommend tucking into the skirt. Then all that’s left to do is throw on the jewelry I picked out and slip on the sandals I found. Wherever you go, you’ll look cute and summery.
Rock n’ Bowler

This look is head-to-toe rocker chic and I love it. Our fashionista above manages to look badass while still keeping it cool, and I love the socks and wedge combo going on down below.
To recreate the look, I picked out a slouch pocket tee to tuck into a black bandage skirt. Belt that skirt with the cool studded skinny belt I found, pull on some cool socks, and wear them with the amazing strappy camel wedges. Finally, to complete the look, throw on the feathered bowler hat I picked out. With your outfit complete, you’re set to go out, whether you’re off to the club or to a concert.
Scallops n’ Cream

This prim and proper outfit is perfectly adorable with just enough edge to make it fashion-forward. I love the scalloped shorts and those heels are to die for.
For my inspired outfit, I went for a similar color scheme of beiges and whites. I started with a cute ruffle blouse and chose a scalloped lace skirt to tuck it into. The adorable tree necklace I chose can get layered on top – it will act as the outfit’s statement piece. Next, for those chilly summer nights, throw on this cool khaki moto jacket. Finally, for your toes, I picked out some cool wedge sandals- perfect whether it’s hot or cool outside.
Thoughts?

I love this post! Your Street Style Roundup posts are some of my favorites, mostly because I love the looks you put together. My favorite look of the bunch is the “scalloped” one — it’s so simple but still so chic and flawless.
Bebe
These are too cute! But some of these items are kind of expensive for a girl on a budget…
Valeria
I’m crazy in love with the last outfit!! It’s so femenine and fashion forward.
I think I’ll buy that necklace, it’s just amazing!
:)

Another person made this same comment in another post, please stop showing items that are sold out or no longer available in all posts. Thanks.
Danielle
This post makes me more excited to get dressed tomorrow!

@Bebe
you can probably find a lot of stuff from online is stores, it just takes a LOT of looking. Some of my best pieces are things that were on sale at Old Navy or something silly like that! Or go vintage!
Great post! I LOVE the creamsicle, scallop and headcase styles (minus the tuband!), but I CANNOT for the LIFE of me, pull of a maxi dress. I’ve tried.

@ Lalalina- Hey Lalalina, I just wanted to let you know, that these articles are written a few days ahead of time before they go up on the site, so sometimes an item that I will have chosen for the outfits may be available at the time I am writing it but will have sold out when the article is posted.
I know it’s a drag that the item will go out of stock, but I just wanted to let you know that I am always conscious and checking to see if the item is available when I’m writing. I don’t have any control over whether or not it becomes sold out, I’m sorry for the trouble either way! Just thought I’d let you know though :)
Glad you guys are enjoying the looks though!
carly

Julie

I love the first two outfits! Although I am unsure about the whole socks with sandals hmm. I feel like I would not be able to pull that off. Fashion Challenge perhaps? I know I could use the guidance :] Great post!
Lalalina
Thanks for the update Kim! I was unaware there was difference in time between when you write things and when the article goes up. I know its not your fault, or the fault of any of the other writers, if something sells out, but maybe you all could try to use items that have a full range of sizes available when you are writing your pieces. I also understand that this website is not designed to sell products, but you all write such great posts and give us such great outfit ideas, I think I am not alone in wanting to purchase some of the pieces you all suggest!
ELLEN
OMG! I just bought the beige tee and white lace skirt!!

Jen
Great post! I love each and every one of these outfits.
Meirav
I don’t think you can call that last outfit “prim and proper”… those are definitely super short shorts.
Yvonne
Love all your picks! I’m definitely going to be rockin’ the maxi this summer!
