Do you have mother of the groom dress suggestions for a SC low country wedding? I’ve purchased and returned several dresses. I’ve kept a high low Kay Unger to consider. It’s sleeveless and fits well but the fabric is heavy. I’d like something breezier. Running out of time since the wedding is in August! ☺️

Regarding the fabrics... I would even try to leave out any hint of spandex. And I say no to Tencel. I know it is better for the environment than Viscose/Rayon, but that is easily solved by limiting yourself to vintage viscose. Tencell/Lyocell is a nightmare with stains and retaining the dyes. I made the mistake to get an item made from it once or twice, but those pieces were ruined after a few wears and washes. Never again.

I grew up in India and summer heat was best managed by wearing cotton voile dresses with salwars(bottoms) or pyjamas. We also covered our heads with thin dupattas(thin chiffon) to protect from Sun. Most of the time you could get fabric and get these dressed custom made for yourself at minimal cost. I feel that is the best way. Instead of buying everything from the big department stores and wear a uniform.

Many years ago, I was in Barcelona during August and could not believe how hot it was (I live in the sweltering heat of Texas and Barcelona still felt hotter due to humidity). I brought tons of shorts, but figured out that dresses are SO much cooler because they allow air to blow around the body. As a result, I now own about 50 dresses that I basically wear all summer :) Dresses are the best kept secret to staying cool!

Oh tell me about it. A couple of years ago (2019) we had a HEATWAVE (600km south of Barcelona) it normally gets to mid 30 but we were hitting 40 (104 F) with massive humidity. Luckily up in the hills it gets really windy in the afternoons. But clothes were 100% optional. The minute you put anything on it instantly stuck to you. Yuck.

I’m a linen addict. And I also love ramie. I agree with all of your sentiments except in linen. Plus linen has natural antibacterial properties-just in case you do sweat it’s going to keep you fresh. It’s durable, retains its color, and gets softer over time. I just love it. There are some linen-cotton blends out there, but I enjoy pure linen.

I'm with you Lux one🌿 Linnen is more globally/historically traditional too, it lasts much, much longer, gets softer with washings, and, as you say; stays clean-smelling a LOT longer than cotton! Some weaves aren't so wrinkly, & they're so textural & beautiful. I don't iron either🌿

I also converted to linen. I wore a linen skirt out yesterday, and wear linen shorts at home in the summer, and the heat is more bearable. I also bought several linen sheet sets....worth every penny. They are cool in hot times and warm in the winter. Do not dry your linen all the way if you use a dryer. Linen loves to be damp, and if you dry it too much, the fiber will break and it will no longer suck up moisture.

There is nothing wrong with proper shorts. Just takes a PHD to find good ones. I graduaded in shorts finding last year, and now they are fully back in my wardrobe. My quick tips: always 100% cotton, proper hems, proper rise (28cm front, 38cm back bare minimum), 7-20cm inseam, no distress/frays, and leg opening 1-finger loose at 7-10cm inseam, up to a proper flare for 15-20cm inseam.

Jcrew has cotton blouses that are very similar to the Rails blouse Erin showcases that are reasonably priced, good quality and come in a few colors. Love them!

I agree with everything - except those sandals (I wear Birkenstock for about eight months of the year in various styles; those sandals look cheap to me). However, you didn't mention seersucker, and it's a great summer cotton fabric. I live in southern Nevada where it's regularly 110F in the summer. A loose fitting seersucker dress is one of my favorite go-tos, along with the wonderful Grace blouse from On My Gauze, which has a very flattering fit. I am 74. I wear cotton capris, cotton blouses and shirts, and cotton dresses all summer. You also briefly mentioned the freezing a/c in so many places. I carry a lightweight cashmere cardigan wherever I go.

First...your lipstick is 🔥 I love shorts with a long sleeve top! I lived in AZ for many years and you always see the people taking care of lawns and grounds in 115 degrees and they are COVERED UP. Long sleeves, long pants, hats, etc. It really does help to carry around your own shade!

I love how your style has evolved since you moved to Europe. You're prime example of how European women are more elegant and feminine than American women. I've lived in America for 20 years now and I've not let go of my European style. Hence people asking me where I'm going when I dress myself bur I'm really not going anywhere.

I think it's unfortunate that Americans dress down the way they do. The first time I went overseas my eyes were opened to how much nicer people dress in other parts of the world. If I wear even a casual skirt with a tee here, people ask me why I'm all dressed up. It's not that I'm dressed up, everyone else is dressed down. Hopefully one day looking respectful and caring about clothing choice will catch on in the States.

Yes, fabric makes a huge difference. I can’t stand polyester! I hate ironing so what I do is throw a shirt on the dryer, low setting for a couple of minutes and it comes out wrinkle free ☺️

I must try this trick. I hate ironing clothes and my body tolerates only cotton.

I abandoned shorts and jeans in the summer years ago, preferring skirts and dresses in the humid heat of the American South. They’re cooler, feel fresher longer and look better. My go to fabrics are lightweight cotton and, yes, linen. To me, linen is the coolest choice and there’s a tremendous variety of styles available now. Does it wrinkle? Yes. Do I care? Nope. As long as I’m cool, I’m happy.

Great video, Erin. Thank you! I love to wear dresses in the summer heat. A trick I learned recently from my daughter is to wear bike shorts under them. As sport clothing tends to be breathable, the bike shorts add an extra layer of support and comfort around the thighs without adding much heat to the outfit.

I'm not 40 yet, but have gained a lot of weight recently and don't feel comfortable showing off my body, so her recommendations of tank tops and tight jean skirts with hats were a super NO for me, and I've remained lost.

I love dresses, but with my size 14ish figure it is not easy to find dresses to fit nicely. Maybe I can find one for this summer. My go to for hot summer days is a pair of Linen drawstring pants and a simple cotton tee with a pair of sandals. It looks effortless and it's super comfy. I wear just a BB cream with a spf in it, some bronzer and a colored lip balm. Nowadays, my whole approach is less is more, with the exception of sunnies who doesn't love a pair that are oversized and on the luxe side. That is such a great statement piece in my opinion.

Great content! I live in a tropical climate, extremely hot and humid, I need to stay cool, dry and also protect from sun and mosquitoes. The best outfit for me is a long sleeve, mid/long dress, white or beige, linen or loosely woven cotton, paired with a cotton gauze slip. The DOUBLE LAYER is my secret to stay as cool and dry as possible. I always have a stole in my bag to put on my shoulder when I enter an air conditioned space.

Where would you buy a.Cotton gauze slip? I have a white and a beige linen dress and I just can’t find anything to wear under it…

Sweltering 104 today in central CA, my whole closet is midi & maxi breathable fabric dresses… plus accessories. I’m loving the “yeezy” pillow slides trend this summer instead of birkenstock.

Oh my...That is HOT! Love that style myself! Thanks for watching. xo

I recently discovered your videos and am watching more and more of them. As I continued to age and was no longer able to pull off the minis and bodycon stuff I used to wear last decade and earlier, I moved into midi skirts in summer - with tank tops. Now that I'm 60, even tank tops are a little more difficult to pull off even though I'm still in good shape. Finding myself at a loss, I went searching for KZread help and found your spectacular videos - so I'm paying attention to your styles like the green cotton poplin you show and all the t-shirts with details - typically not my style, but re-inventing myself means opening my brain to different options. You are helping with that as based on your videos, I'm paying attention to - and trying on - things I'd have ignored earlier. Thank you, because I have always been stylish and I have no interest in that short sleeve / cotton scoop neck & capri uniform so many women 55+ seem to wear.

Thanks so much for your comment, Judi! So glad you're enjoying my tips. As we get older it can be tough, when we feel that we can't wear some of the things we have for years...but it's also a fun time to re-discover and reinvent our style! So glad you are here! xo

Thanks again Erin!

Thanks Erin! I also love the coolness of Searsucker, one root name being shir o shakar (milk & sugar--like the smooth & chunky weave in Farsi). It's an intelligently invented, beautifully, ancient weave, (though later popularized in suit form by European colonists). Like linnen, it's an ancient weave, designed for heat, and looks great as any shirt, skirt, dress, pants or suit 🌿

That little belt with a bag was so cute on the midi skirt! Where did you get that? I moved from Texas to Colorado too and the weather is soooo much nicer here in the summer. I never go a day without being thankful for the beautiful summers here! 💕Maria

Great video! We live in Florida and it’s sweltering! I’m like you, I hate to iron so linen is a no go for me. Got chubby legs so have to wear longer, almost shorts, type underwear. Not spanx, nothing tight, under dresses, skirts, and loose pants. Still keeps me cool 👍🏼

This is such a good video Erin! I live in the Desert and dread Summers bc I don't love to wear linens and cottons. I have been on the lookout for Tencel fabrics when I am thrifting, but hard to come across. Something I have been doing is buying men's dress shirts in large sizes in thrift stores, but I find the ones that are wrinkle free and washable and I design clothing out of those fabrics so you can machine wash, but not have to deal with wrinkles. I love the dress you have on in this video. The color is stunning on you! I love that you said you don't want to wear a mummu! LOL! Every time I wear something shapeless, my lovely Aunt always tells me how bad it looks. But no matter what our size, we all need to have a shape and find flattering waist lines. Love the shorts and white button down look on you. Such a classic chic style for women over 40!

How funny! Your lovely Aunt sounds like she's got it figured out! On those shapeless dresses you can always try adding a thin belt though. Thanks so much for watching! xo

Most of the brands you mentioned don't make clothes for 50% of the population that's size 16 and over. The brands we have give us a choice of polyester or polyester. I've looked for 5 yrs for an oversized white linen shirt (still in stock - the other problem is large sizes sell out in hrs) without luck. TG for chinese fast fashion or we wouldn't even have a white polyester shirt. I've lost my patience with stores and brands that aren't inclusive towards 50% of women. PS have you done a video on styling hats in the heat? I'm a skin cancer survivor and need to wear hats. It's been a struggle.

Thank you SO much for watching and for your feedback here. A couple of great brands that we've seen for more inclusive sizing would be Nic + Zoe (lots of cotton, linen blends for cooler fabrics) Here's the link: go.magik.ly/ml/1ifde/ Madewell: go.magik.ly/ml/1ifdk/ and Karen Kane: go.magik.ly/ml/1ifdm/ As far as hats, here's one I've been loving: go.magik.ly/ml/1ibu9/ Hope this helps on your search! xo

Perhaps i would feel more comfortable about wearing shorts that went closer to like above the knee. As well, used some self tanner on my casper the friendly ghost legs. But yeah.. shorts or flowy dresses in Texas are a must in the summer. Thanks as always Erin for the great and very helpful tips! Linda xx

Good news for you: bermudas are back in fashion! They should be easier to find :)

Great tips. I use most of them. Would love to wear gauzy summer pants but the elastic waistband/drawstring is not flattering at all for me. At under 5 ft tall, elastic bands and drawstring waist make me look wider than i am and frumpy. And i wear xs or s at most. So difficult to find proper zip waistband that flatters 😢

@M-hc9xm

If you can do some simple sewing, change the waistband to only have elastic in the back, and the minimum needed to clear your hips. I bought a pair that style and have since modified some other pants to be like that.

Thanks so much for watching. If you're trying to minimize the waist, sometimes drawstrings aren't the way to go...it can add bulk right there, even when there's nothing there! Hope you found some of these tips helpful. xo

What I really struggle with is a bra that doesn’t make me feel extra sweaty. When it’s hot I gravitate towards activewear mainly for the swoobs. I like be wearing airy light colored tops but feel like I need more structure but have not been able to find the perfect hot weather bra. Any tips/suggestions appreciated!! 34DD

True & Co. seems to have some nice options for lightweight bras. Here's a link to check them out: go.magik.ly/ml/1idj5/ They are thinner than others, so less structure...but that may be what you're searching for! Thanks for watching. xo

I am close to your size. I bought some cotton blend bras last summer when I was stuck temporarily living in the south. I just got two more for this summer. One from Victoria's Secret and one from Le Mystere. I don't know why more brands don't make cotton blend.
