The much-awaited monsoon is finally here and with it comes some fashion inspiration and new ideas to give your wardrobe a monsoon makeover. Here are some fashion tips and styles to make sure you look awesome in this dull and gloomy weather and also feel comfortable at the same time.
Fashion with bright and bold colors
The most important fashion tip this season is to use bright colors and prints to bring out that fresh look and to stand out in this gloomy weather. Also, avoid whites as much as possible as they are sure to get stained and if you get wet in the rain, they also become quite transparent.
Dresses and playsuits are the way to go
Shorts, dresses, skirts, and playsuits are some outfits you might want to try this season. They have shorter hemlines and are not-so-flowy as well, which means they won’t get muddy easily and are quite comfortable to wear and style as well.
Say no to Denim Fashion
Denim tends to get heavy when wet and also gives you an itchy feeling by the time they dry up. It’s best to avoid such fabrics and opt for lighter alternatives or quick-drying materials.
Although, if you can’t avoid your love for denim, here are some ways you can wear them in monsoon and still feel comfortable in them:
- Denim shorts and skirts: Shorts and skirts in any fabric are a good way to feel comfy and still fashionable in monsoons. If you pair it right with a crop top or even a comfy t-shirt, it can make for a great outfit for a friend’s day out or a coffee date.
- Boyfriend jeans: Boyfriend jeans are loose-fitting and comfortable which makes them easily breathable and also makes for a stylish silhouette if you pair them right.Â
- Wear monsoon-friendly footwear
Monsoon-friendly footwear means open sandals and rubber sole shoes or slippers. These are a great way to let your feet breathe and avoid any types of fungus buildup in your feet due to the humidity.
Ethnic wear
Ethnic or traditional wear is also a rising trend for the monsoon season. Those who are not comfortable with wearing short dresses and skirts, can opt for monsoon-friendly fabrics and wear ethnic wear suits and flats. It is breathable and a lot comfier than stuffy denim pants or trousers.
Accessorize your outfits right
Accessories can enhance any outfit. But, keeping in mind the season and the humid weather, it gets a bit confusing as to what to wear or carry with your outfit. You must make sure that all your accessories are water-resistant. Use scarves to give your outfits a retro kind of look; it’s also a good way to keep sweat and dust away from your face.
Use waterproof makeup
Who doesn’t love makeup? But when it comes to wearing makeup in this humid weather, most people tend to avoid it. Waterproof makeup products are the most commonly used products these days because of their no-smudge and long-lasting properties. It is also very suitable for this wet and humid season. For those who are not a big fan of makeup and prefer to keep it minimal, waterproof eyeliners and matte lipsticks are a great way to complete your everyday no-makeup look and still look amazing.
