Are you stuck with what to wear this summer as busy mom? I’ve got you??
Here are 3 easy summer outfit formulas I use over and over when getting dressed! I make sure to invest in a few of each of my favorite items (tanks, shorts, tees, linen pants, button ups) and then it’s super easy to mix and match and come up with new combos for different days.

Outfit formula 1: comfy shorts, tank/tee, and a top layer. Top it off with comfy sandals and a crossbody bag.
Outfit formula 2: a graphic tee & comfy shorts (these are my favorite pair of comfy denim shorts—I own them in this dark wash, the light wash, and black!). Wrap it up with relaxed sandals and a hands-free crossbody.
As you can probably tell in this post, it was warmer out and then it got cooler again.
I start out in dresses, shorts, tanks, and breezy cotton and linen and I end up trading them out for jeans and pants near the end of the post. All part of living in northern NY and the ever changing weather and temperatures. What matters is I loved every single look and felt comfy and cute!

1. Olive Maxi + Neutral Layers
A flowy olive colored maxi dress paired with a neutral chunky knit cardigan—cozy, earthy, and perfect for transitioning between seasons.
Structured but soft, this look combines texture with comfort. The white sweater tank pops against the relaxed olive pants and a fun crossbody bag brings it all together.
This black cotton button up and jeans combo is perfect for a day of running errands. Finished it up with my go-to bag and comfy (waterproof!) sneakers.
A soft color palette with floaty shapes. This tan button up and these blush colored cotton pants feel so comfy on. I added a little bit of cool color with my green bag.
