Summer Style: Our Favorite Easy, Breezy Celebrity Looks of the Season

We never get tired of easy, breezy summer looks. From Solange's cool-girl ensembles to Gabrielle Union's laid back chic, here are the stars who are slaying summer style.

By Dominique Hobdy · July 27, 2015October 27, 2020
01
Solange

There’s no need for Solange to dust her shoulders off in this chic and flowy top. We love the pair up of slim cigarette pants and lace up heels.

June Ambrose

Leave it to June Ambrose to dish out stellar style moments. A chic fedora and a printed maxi is the recipe for the ultimate summer ensemble.

Ciara

Calling all gladiators! Ciara hit the mark with this one. The long-sleeved mini dress and gladiator sandals scream “effortless cool.”

Tracee Ellis Ross

Don’t hide Tracee! We see you slaying that floral number! Her fun accessories top off the look.

Beyonce

Queen Bey has spoken. We’re not sure if it’s the perfect background, the killer Stella Jean skirt or the sultry stare, but it works!

Gabrielle Union

Canadian tuxedo anyone? Denim on denim is always a good idea. Looking good Gabrielle!

07
Zoe Kravitz

Florals are a summer go-to. We’re loving the ’70s vibe and the plunging neckline. This is yet another style win for Zoe.

Elle Varner

Rompers are all-the-rage this summer. Elle’s checkered jumpsuit and nude sandals are adorable!

Angela Simmons

Once, twice, three times a fashionista. Angela Simmons rocks the perfect military-inspired mix between a vest and dress. And can we say yes to these studded heels?

Zendaya

Zendaya made headlines when she doned this Michael Kors plaid set. We’re loving the “classic lady” vibe we’re getting from this look.

Sza

Sza is known for her cool-girl style and she delivers again in an oh-so-cute romper.

Jourdan Dunn

Jourdan is a super model for a reason. She’s definitely selling this printed flowy dress. Does the view come with it?

Tia Mowry-Hardrict

Yes to the off-the-shoulder action! Tia is killing one of the hottest trends of the summer.

Lupita gives Parisian girls a run for their money in this simply chic white frock and wide-brimmed hat.
