Summer Outfits Inspired by Pinterest
When I want to curb my desire to go thrifting or shopping for clothes in general, I turn to Pinterest for some outfit inspiration! Here are several other posts where I shared outfits inspired by Pinterest.
This week, I am sharing outfits I wore mid June and as you will see, some follow the Pinterest photo inspiration closely while others just follow the general idea of the outfit. Pinterest is just there to get your creative juices flowing!
Denim, Stripes and Scarf
For this outfit, I loosely based my outfit on the inspiration picture. Since I was wearing my outfit on a hot summer day, shorts and sandals replaced the jeans and sneakers, and my scarf is tied at the belt loop.
Maxi and Graphic Tee
For this outfit, my outfit follows the inspiration more closely with a white maxi and grey graphic tee and since it was a cooler day, I did wear white sneakers. I even had a yellow purse in my closet.
Stripe Pants and Blue
I thrifted these pants recently and they are so comfortable! I’ve worn them with white too and I think grey will be a good match also. I am enjoying rotating my summer totes and bags once or twice a week. They really can compliment an outfit: I am realizing that taking the time to switch them out can make a difference in my overall look.
Khakis and White Tank
So one son said I looked like a pirate while another said I looked like a gang member, but I did enjoy wearing this simple outfit! I did lose the scarf quickly since it was hot, but it was fun playing with it.
Olive and Black Tank
This outfit is such an easy one to replicate! Who doesn’t have a black tank or tee, black sandals and olive pants! It worked out that my pants are a summery pair and are lightweight, so this was a weather appropriate outfit for a mild June day. I enjoyed adding all silver jewelry including my grandmother’s pendant clock and this silver cuff I found last year at an antique shop.
This was a fun week of outfits! It was just what I need to get inspired to shop my closet after our week in Colorado.
A bientôt!

Such a fun post! My favorites are the striped pants with the blue shirt and the khaki pants with the black top.

Inspiration can be found everywhere-online, and people watching, too! These are great ways to realize outfit combinations that you may not have thought about, with items already in your closet, with just a few tweaks. I love the head bandana look, maybe your sons just need to get used to seeing you with a new hairdo! Thanks for sharing and hope you had a great fourth of July holiday. It was so dangerously hot and humid, that all public daytime activities were canceled in our area. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a great week!

That is such a smart idea to use Pinterest as inspiration and I think your versions match the original very well.

I must say that I like a good silk scarf and wearing stripes. It must be because I am French 🙂

Probably is!

You recreated these looks so well. I like the striped pants and the maxi skirt with the graphic tee. Very chic!

Thank you, Maria! Those pants are really one of my favorites this summer.
Anna
Love your inspiration choices and the way you style them your way. Very nice

Thanks, Anna!

Love how your looks are very similar to those you found on Pinterest but you added a little bit of YOU to make them your own. The graphic tee and white skirt are right up my alley. In fact, I think I might just try that myself!!

They sure were fun to put together.

I enjoyed seeing your take on these inspiration looks – the stripes and blue is my favorite, but they were all very successful.

Thanks, Sally, that one was so comfy!

These are all great outfits, Mireille! My fave is the white maxi and graphic tee. I have a pair of pants very similar to your blue striped ones. They are great for my current pajama dressing vibe! I used to love Pinterest for outfit inspiration, but lately when I go there it seems like the majority of images are AI generated. And I pretty much hate that! But it looks like you found some wonderful Pinterest inspiration!

True about the AI generated pictures… It’s a pain. I could tell the background in some of these was not real!
