With temperatures soaring and sweaty humid days taking over, staying cool is probably going to be your biggest concern right now. Believe it or not, the most effective way of doing that lies in tweaking what you wear. So here are some fashion choices that will make sure you’re ready to beat the heat and look styling while you’re at it.
Moisture Wicking And Breathable Fabrics
Look for phrases like ‘moisture wicking’ and ‘breathable’ when buying your summer garments. While moisture-wicking fabrics like hemp, bamboo fibre and recycled polyester will help keep sweat away, breathable fabrics like cotton and linen will keep air circulated, keeping you cooler on a hot or humid day.
The Right Bra
The moisture-wicking and breathable fabric tip works for your undergarments too. When picking a bra more suited to work with your summer outfits, a wireless bra will help a great deal to keep away underboob sweat. Additionally, lightly padded bras will also be more breathable than heavily padded ones, leading to better air circulation.
A Hat Or Scarf
Want to keep your hair out of the way? Skip the simple hair tie for a cool hat or scarf. Try to pick breathable and lightweight fabrics when choosing your accessories. That way you will avoid extra sweat and still put the hat or scarf to good use.
An Easy Bag
Try to choose bags that are easy to carry and don’t cling to your body and make you sweat more. For this, switching your backpacks to lightweight tote bags may do the trick. The best way to stay weight and hassle-free would be a sling bag.
A Light Layer

On days when the sun is particularly harsh, it may make sense to carry a light layer- made of fabrics like mul cotton or linen. This will make sure your skin is well protected from direct heat while staying sweat-free.
