If you live in the South, you may find that many pieces of your summer wardrobe carry you through all year long. This makes it worthwhile to invest in a few fashion staples that you can wear any season, summer through winter, in the mild Southern climate.

It pays to buy these pieces:

Denim always works. Denim is great in the South, and everyone is wearing it. First, it is durable enough for working in the yard year-round, while cute denim skirts, skorts, and dresses can be accessorized to wear out for a night on the town. Look for unique shades and fading in denim clothing that will bring something new to your closet.

Nothing beats a great hat. You will want to keep the sun off your face during the dog days of summer, but even in winter the Southern sun can be brutal. Invest in a stylish, wide-brimmed sunhat to protect your skin but also to give you a great fashion accessory. Wear your hat with jeans, dresses, or any attire for a fun look that also protects your hair from the sun's rays.

Opt for versatile garments. If you are only buying a couple of pieces for your wardrobe, look for garments that offer versatility- such as a stunning sarong. A sarong is a beautiful wrap on chilly summer nights, though it can also be used as a thick scarf during winter winds. Wrap your sarong around your waist for a cute cover-up at the beach or a lovely skirt for a trip to the market.

Treat yourself to a sweet sundress. A sundress will get more wear than merely during hot summer weather; in the South, pair these dresses with a denim jacket or a cute sweater for a look that fits fall and winter, too. Wear your sundress with textured tights or cowboy boots for a fun look that can go from the office to the club effortlessly.

Sandals are a year-round staple. Sandals are worn year-round in the balmy Southern regions, and so you will want a few good pairs taking up space in your closet. Opt for leather styles for durability and simple styles that you may embellish with anklets or toe-rings as desired. Gladiator sandals are trendy, but also make a stylish statement when worn year-round with your capri pants, skirts, and jeans.

Check out the apparel and footwear offered from online boutiques to find styles that are distinctive and different from what you see on the racks of every department store in town. Enjoy the mild weather and sunny skies of the South but make sure your wardrobe reflects this climate; invest in a few year-round pieces that will get lots of wear and enjoyment any season. for more information, contact Charlotte's or a similar company.
