Let Summer Linger: How to Style Breezy Cotton from Summer into Autumn
, 1 min reading time
While some are counting down the days till school starts and All I Want for Christmas is You is on the radio, over here at inara, we’re holding on tight to long, sunny afternoons. The end of summer is coming, but for now, our breathable cotton pyjamas and bright printed dresses are still our wardrobe staples. Check out our favourites from this season and how we’re styling them all the way from summer to autumn.
rosette bloom dress
The Rosette Bloom dress is our favourite cool cotton fabric in a universally flattering A-line shape with a classic shirtdress style. The rosette bloom print itself is a modern geometric floral, with high-contrast pink and green on a crisp cool white background. The breezy skirt and loose fit keep you cool throughout summer, styled with a rattan handbag and mesh ballet slippers. When the colder temperatures kick in, throw a classic jumper around your shoulders to match the preppy vibes of the shirtdress, along with chunky loafers and a doctor’s bag.
Cherry Blossom Floral Pyjamas
Our newest, cheeriest pink pattern, Cherry Blossom perfectly matches our classic kaftan style top and trousers pyjama set. Summer is the ideal time to let your PJs out of the house, when the world already feels more casual. Keep cool over brunch with the loose floral kaftan top matched with loose khaki trousers and some bright mules in complementary colours to elevate the look from lazy pyjamas to luxury loungewear. Come fall, it’s time to bring the bright printed cotton pyjamas back indoors with the matching comfy pyjama bottoms, fluffy slippers, and our Fuchsia Freesia women’s cotton robe for the ultimate in bright pink cosiness.
Indigo Lotus Quilted Phone Bag
Tiny bags are back, and our quilted cotton cross body bag is the perfect size to hold your phone, lipgloss, and keys. Embrace the final events of summer by relying on this little bag at an outdoor festival, styled with our matching cotton headscarf, the groovy Blue Lagoon kimono, a simple, comfortable dress, and wellies, of course. When the party is over in autumn, the miniature purse keeps your most important items within arm’s reach while you have your hands free for shopping. Don’t forget the matching Indigo Lotus tote, or a contrast one like the Rosette Bloom tote (or both!) to hold your haul.
