The Instagram Outfits That Are Inspiring Our August Wardrobes

It’s hard to believe August is almost here. It seems like just yesterday we were enjoying those first few picnics in the park as the weather started to warm up. Though with the final summer month’s imminent arrival, it’s time to kick back and enjoy the last vestiges of the season (sorry, but this is England, after all) and embrace everything that your warm-weather wardrobe has to offer. Clad yourself in gingham, forgo jackets for as long as possible, wear your favourite floral dresses on rotation and accessorise yourself in all the basket bags and slingback shoes you can get your hands on.

You might be bored of them now, but we promise come October, you’ll be dreaming of these balmy heatwave days. If you’re in need of some inspiration for the coming weeks, Instagram is currently stuffed full of enviable outfits. From Maggie McCormack’s minimalist maxi dress to Karina Marriott‘s green check midi, scroll down to discover what to wear in August from the ladies leading the charge. 

Style Notes: A white maxi dress is the ultimate summer staple. If you’re in the UK, make sure to always keep a cardi close by for when those inevitable chilly evenings set in.

Style Notes: A tonal all white look is one of those outfits formulas that is just made for summer. Here, Amaka adds interest to her minimalist look through the use of statement accessories, including a Dior bag and bright blue head scarf. 

Style Notes: A midi skirt is a key staple in many wardrobes, this season pair your favourite with a printed puff sleeve blouse to create an elevated summer silhouette. 

Style Notes: A very chic take on safari styling, make the most of the final warmer days by wearing your favourite miniskirt with a knotted shirt in a contrasting colour. 

Style Notes: Gingham checks are going nowhere. Dress them up with a pair of white strappy sandals and finish with simple minimal jewellery. 

Style Notes: Faithfull the Brand has singlehandedly put retro florals back on the fashion map with its collection of summer dresses. Pair them with simple footwear so as not to detract from the print at hand. 

Style Notes: Cycling shorts may have been all the rage over the last year, but now the trend is becoming more modern thanks to the addition of colours and prints. Choose a playful printed legging and then directly contrast with an oversized tailored blazer. 

Style Notes: We constantly profess our love of jeans and nice tops, though none come chicer than this combination. Elevate a pair of vintage-wash jeans with a satin blouse then finish with the most classic of accessories.
