Hello everyone,
Today I am bringing to you a fun little post about how to have a hot girl summer. People have this notion that having a “Hot Girl Summer” means you are having a wild summer as a single girl, however to many that is not what “Hot Girl Summer” means. Hot girl Summer is a state of mind, and an overall vibe. It is for any gal out there, not just the single gals. Now here are a few steps you can take to have a hot girl summer.
- Say yes to adventures and trying new things
The first step to having a Hot Girl Summer is to say YES! What I mean by this is when someone comes to you with an idea just say yes, because the best moments are the ones that are unexpected. By saying yes you are allowing anything to happen, memories to be made and new experiences to occur. Of course this is all within reason, do not say yes to anything you are not 100% conformable with. However, do not be afraid to go out of your comfort zone and try something you have always wanted to do. Say yes to coffee dates, to picnics in the park, to bonfires, to shopping days, to weekend getways, to trying out new recipes etc. This will allow you to have the most eventful and “hot” summer yet.
2. Wear cute af outfits and don’t be afraid to have fun with your style
This step is all about having fun with your style this summer. What I love so much about summer 2021 trends are that they are filled with colour, fun patterns and silhouettes. You can really have fun with what you are wearing and make a statement.
Some of the items that I think are perfect to wear for the summer are:
- Girly printed sundresses
- Tennis Skirts
- Fun printed tank tops
- Headpants
- Bandana Tops
- Platform sandals
3. Focus on wellness
This step is all about focusing inward. Although a lot of hot girl summer is about having fun, trying new things and making memories with others it is also about focusing on yourself and your mental health. There is this big trend that started on Tik Tok called “Hot Girl Walks”, although the name sounds super extra it simply means to go for a walk by yourself. Have a main character moment and play some of your favourite music, listen to a podcast, all while sipping on your favourite beverage. While you walk take time to look around and visualize your dream life, manifesting your goals. Stop somewhere and pick yourself up some flowers, go on a date with yourself and enjoy your own company. This tip can also mean incorporating mediation and reading this summer. In terms of mediation I have recently picked up some Mala Beads to aid in mediation as I find it extremely difficult. If you find it has as well, they may help you to focus. They are also great for manifesting as each bead has a different meaning behind it. All in all this tip is about focusing on yourself, your wellness, and your personal goals.
- Take lots of photos to caputre memories
This step is all about capturing memories while being present. Although this may seem contradictory what I mean is to make photos taking a part of your outing, rather then something you “have” to do. By taking photos of things as they happen, they look so much more organic, cute and capture memories to look back on down the line. It also supplies you with so many cute photos to post on instagram to show everyone the “Hot Girl Summer” you are having, experiencing new things and being the best version of yourself.
- Make everything an event
The last step to have a hot girl summer is to make everything an event, by that I mean to be EXTRA with everything you do. If your going to go somewhere, even if its a coffee shop, put on the cutest outfit you can think of. If your going to have a picnic with some friends, make it super cute with a nice picnic blanket, some flowers, a charcuterie board instead of sandwiches. Everyone can wear cute outfits and you can capture everything on a film camera. If you are going to have dinner in your backyard, and instead of just making it basic, make it feel like “Italy” right at home. Get some nice linens, some string lights, sangria, dress up in pretty sun dresses, play some nice music. Really create a vibe. This step is about making any event as special as it can be.
