Ladies, Ladies, Ladies

With the cool months of Fall and Winter slowly fading into a distant memory of harsh and unpleasant weather and being replaced by the warm Spring and Summer seasons we are all beginning to pack up our Northfaces and burst onto the scene in our new wardrobes featuring an array of ensembles where clothing is minimal and skin is the prime focal point. As a woman, the summertime is an opportunity for us to show off our best assets, and while the high rise platform sandals and colorful ultra-mini dresses are flirty and fun, sometimes nothing feels better than slipping on a super comfy summer T and feeling the soft cotton blend against warm skin kissed lightly by the sun.
American Apparel, a vertically integrated company that specializes in wholesale and retail apparel is your one stop shop for the easiest and comfiest summer T looks. American Apparel specializes in basic apparel in simple cotton blends in a vast array of colors. My Top 5 favorite AA pieces for women are below:


1. The summer T-shirt is definitely a top pick. The summer shirt comes in ten different colors and the sheer jersey cotton T is perfect to pair with some super short shorts and gladiator sandals for a day at the beach or for just kicking around the city. The shirt is super light and feels great against sticky summer skin. Ladies, get with it!




2. Next we have the T-dress. My girls have got to love this one because it’s an easy alternative to the T-shirt itself. The fine jersey dress is super stretchy and hugs the body in all the right places. Paired with some cute flats or some sexy pumps makes this dress a perfect wear for day or for night. The dress is a great cut that flatters almost any body type and it comes in fifteen different colors so you never have to worry about not having accessories to match!


3. For the ladies that like to show a little more skin the 2x1 ribbed racer back tank is the perfect alternative to the summer T. This tank is so comfortable and the racer back gives it a fun and sassy appeal. Hands down it’s a winner.






4. Summer days can sometimes be quite unforgiving, however, as soon as the menacing ball of fire dips low enough into the horizon summer nights offer the right amount of warmth accompanied by a satisfyingly cool breeze. The California pullover raglan hoodie is perfect for these summer nights. They cover up the right amount of skin to shield against that cool breeze while still allowing the ladies to show a little leg. The hoodie dress is a casual look that still holds massive sex appeal. It is sporty and fun and can be appreciated by almost any girl. The hoodie comes in five colors and looks great worn alone but can also be worn with jeans, leggings, or a cute bottom.




5. Last but not least we have my favorite AA pick of the month. The micro poly short shorts put Daisy Duke to shame. These are the perfect summer short for any woman who is proud to show off what she’s got. The high waist band elongates legs and makes the duo look amazing in the summer sun. They are super short so ladies we must make sure our junk is securely in the trunk before stepping out in these barely there hot pants. Pair them with a simple tank, huge sunglasses, and a hot pair of platform sandals and you’ve got a totally sassy look that channels 70’s flower child love.


With this list of favorites, my girls should be set to look scorching hot in the sun in a number of looks that will have your milkshake bringing all the boys to the yard. Get with it ladies!!
