Summertime, and the livin' is easy. And so should be fashion, both when it comes to the feel of your warm-weather wardrobe, but also when it comes to picking an outfit. So that's why Glam enlisted expert Ira Lysa, a Hoboken, New Jersey-based fashion designer, tailor, and CEO at Imperial Alterations, to take the stress out of dressing this season by picking one outfit that will take your street style to a new level this summer.

"For summer 2025, the ultimate street-style outfit is all about effortless tailoring with a luxe touch," Lysa explains. "Think: a crisp, oversized linen shirt paired with high-waisted, cream-colored wide-leg trousers. This outfit seems breathable, subtle, and can be styled up." For example, the designer recommends, "The minimalistic earrings in gold, an oversized, round, vintage-inspired visor, and plain, polished, strappy leather sandals that exude laid-back summertime vibes." The finishing touch: "A small, sculptural handbag completes the more abstract, edgier appearance."

The look embraces the classic trends making a comeback in 2025, such as intentional power dressing. But it can also be adapted to a boho vibe, if that's more your style. That's why this outfit is such a superstar; it can be interpreted for a number of style types, and we've got plenty of recommendations for pulling together expert Lysa's exclusive summertime street-style look. For starters, find an oversized button-up like this preppy Lacoste Oversize Striped Linen Shirt; the 100% linen fabric gives a light and airy feel that's perfect for summer. (For another on-trend top, try a white embroidered blouse, which works well with jeans in 2025.) The next piece that's key to pulling the outfit together is a pair of wide-leg trousers. While Lysa recommends cream colored, any neutral shade from white to beige will work here. Check out the Willit Women's Wide-Leg Work Pants, which come in three inseams and a variety of color options, including crisp cream, and have a $35 price point at the time of writing.

Once you have those two basics, it's time to build on the outfit with accessories. To embrace Ira Lysa's minimal gold earrings suggestion, try Kelli Myers' 14K Gold Studs, which reviewers call "simple and elegant," and which fits Lysa's brief perfectly. For a visor, which is one of the hat trends of 2025 to substitute for outdated looks, try a woven style, and bonus points if the hat is foldable, since it will be ideal for travel as well. 

If you don't have polished leather sandals, check out Veittes Women's Flat Slide Sandal. They have an excellent price point without foregoing on style. And finally, for a sculptural handbag that will give the look a slight edge, check out the JW PEI Orla Weave Handbag. The gold handle will play off the earrings well, while the weave coordinates with the visor, giving this street-style look a cohesive feel.

While you may already have pieces in your wardrobe that will make this summertime street-style outfit work, we think the above items help nail the look. We chose them based on positive reviews and ratings from others who have purchased them. Of course, they also get our approval because they feel fresh for summer 2025, but will also be pieces that can be considered staples for your wardrobe. Here's how to build the perfect capsule wardrobe if that's still on your fashion to-do list.
