Summer’s here, the sun’s out, and I’m officially in my soft, barefoot, breezy-goddess era. You know the vibe — salty hair, golden skin, linen everything, and absolutely no tight waistbands allowed.
If you’re anything like me, you want clothes that move with you, breathe with you, and make you feel like you’re on an endless coastal vacation — even if you’re just chilling in your backyard with a spritz. So let me introduce you to the pieces I literally live in from May to September: cotton caftans, boho kaftan dresses, recycled silk skirts, and flowy, movement pants that feel like you’re walking in a dream.
Let’s get into it.
The Beachy Cotton Caftan: Your One-and-Done Summer Uniform
If I could only wear one thing for the rest of the season, it would be a cotton caftan. Light, effortless, and always chic, kaftans are the ultimate “throw on and go” piece. Whether I’m heading to the beach, sipping coffee on my porch, or running errands with big sunnies on, my caftan is right there with me — breezy and beautiful.
Look for soft cotton kaftans or cotton gauze caftans in muted earth tones or coastal whites. I’m obsessed with ones that have subtle embroidery, woodblock prints, or raw edges. The best part? You don’t need to think. Just add sandals, a straw bag, and maybe a little bronzer, and you’re good.
Insider tip: Caftans also double as post-swim coverups, and they pack like a dream for weekend getaways.
The Boho Kaftan Dress & Muumuu: Flowy and Fabulous
Let’s make one thing clear: muumuus are hot. No longer just your grandma’s loungewear, the modern muumuu and boho kaftan dress are statement pieces — feminine, free-spirited, and designed for movement.
I gravitate toward midi-length kaftan silhouettes with airy sleeves, vibrant prints, and cute little details like tassel ties or embroidered trim. I wear mine barefoot on the sand, then dress it up with heeled mules and earrings for dinner. The transformation is chef’s kiss.
These dresses are perfect for everything from farmers markets to music festivals to Sunday lounging. And the best part? They feel like pajamas... but look like you styled the hell out of your outfit.
Style hack: Belt it at the waist if you want a bit more shape — or let it flow and embrace the drama.
Recycled Silk Flared Skirts: Boho with a Story
You haven’t lived until you’ve twirled in a vintage silk skirt with the sun on your skin and a breeze at your back. These babies are handcrafted from repurposed saris, meaning each one is totally one-of-a-kind. The color combos, the textures, the prints — they’re bold, they’re romantic, they’re everything.
I wear my maxi skirts with a knotted tee or a linen button-down tied at the waist. Sometimes I’ll toss on a leather belt, add some stacked bracelets, and voilà — instant beach chic with a hint of wanderlust.
Besides being gorgeous, the wrap skirts also eco-friendly — which makes them even more of a win in my book. Sustainable fashion that’s full of soul? Yes please.
Mood board: Think: barefoot on a tiled terrace, silk skirt fluttering, iced chai in hand.
Movement Pants: My Secret to Looking Cool While Feeling Comfy
You already know I love a good “no effort but still cute” moment — and that’s exactly what movement pants deliver. These are the flowy, high-waisted, wide-leg beauties that give instant drama in the best way. They’re made for dancing barefoot, lounging under the sun, or doing yoga in the grass.
Look for soft cotton harem pants, bamboo, or breathable rayon blends with just the right swish factor. My favorites come in sun-faded neutrals or earthy jewel tones — super easy to mix and match with cropped tanks, bandeaus, or oversized knits.
Vibe check: You're the effortlessly cool girl on the beach who's got sand in her tote, sea salt in her hair, and a whole lot of peace in her aura.
Styling Tips: From Beach to Brunch
Here’s how I make these pieces work for literally everything:
-
Add a woven belt to a caftan for a more structured silhouette
-
Pair silk skirts with vintage tees for a casual contrast
-
Stack mala bead bracelets, rings and go barefoot — always
-
Mix in shell jewelry, straw bags, and oversized sunglasses for a full coastal moment
-
Keep makeup dewy and minimal (think tinted moisturizer and a swipe of gloss)
Bonus points if your outfit matches your beach towel. Just saying.
Final Thoughts: Dress Like You’re On Vacation, Every Day
This summer, I’m saying no to stiff jeans, synthetic fabrics, and anything that doesn’t make me feel free. I want boho clothing that moves with the ocean, glows in the sunlight, and tells a story. Whether it’s a recycled sari turned into a dreamy sundress, flowy skirt or a white cotton caftan flowing in the wind, I’m all about letting it flow — in style and in life.
So if you’re craving that slow, sunkissed, soul-soothing energy this season, start with your wardrobe. Slip into something soft, flowy, and full of feeling. The rest will follow.
