12 Spring/Summer Outfits That Are Effortless, Cool, & Actually Comfortable

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!
