Whether you’re staying out all night or just going to have dinner with your friend somewhere in the metro, wear a white piece or two that will help keep you cool while you enjoy your time with your celebrator buddy. Just be extra mindful of your movements so you can survive the night without stains.

Summer is that time of the year when you’d rather stay at home than go out. But when you really need to shop or do your groceries, you can stay fresh despite the arduous activities if you wear a linen top (for girls) or a cotton polo shirt (for boys).

In case the gang is on for coffee breaks or movie nights, a cotton one-piece dress or shirt will make a good outfit for these hang-outs because they offer comfort while keeping you chic for the occasion.

Even if it’s summer, don’t forget to bring a coat that will help keep you warm while you enjoy your favorite artist’s performance, since it can really get cold in concert halls.

Corporate event

While black is not an advisable color to wear in summer, it should not be banned from your wardrobe. Remember, in formal events, black-themed outfits are still king.

Graduation ceremony

If you ever get invited to a graduation ceremony, go for a cotton tunic dress (for girls) so you can be both fresh and formal while cheering for your loved-one, while guys may opt for a military-cut shirt.

A-line dresses make a good alternative for long-sleeved polo blouses and slacks (for girls) while a cotton coat and inner shirt are still preferable picks (for guys) if you’re supposed to be out on a luncheon meeting during the hottest time of the day.
