Our Fashion Editors Share Their #1 Tip for Stylish Summer Dressing

FashionPass allows you to experiment with summer’s hottest trends before – or instead of – investing in them.

In partnership with FashionPass. Editor’s Note: We only select and work with partners that meet our quality standards, so you can rest assured we only endorse products we believe in.

Summer is one of the most fun seasons to dress for. But because it’s heavily trend-driven – and punctuated by events like weddings and vacations – dressing for summer can also feel involved and expensive. Luckily, our TQE fashion editors are solution-oriented.

We’ve spent years sampling clothing rental services and feel confident in saying: we’ve found the best one for summer styling. It’s FashionPass, hands down, and you can read our full review of their service – which costs $59 for your first month for 10 styles from 400+ brands like Free People, LoveShackFancy, Show Me Your Mumu, and For Love & Lemons – here.

Or you can cut to the chase and browse our editors’ top picks for vacationing, wedding guest dressing, and enjoying a coastal summer below.

Vacation Vibes

Trying out a new look or trend is the most fun on vacation. There’s something about feeling a bit mysterious (and, likely rocking a bronze-y tan) that unlocks new parts of your fashion brain. But, according to our editors, it’s not worth investing in an entirely new suitcase-worth of looks for this purpose. This summer, we recommend dabbling in summer’s hottest trends – lace, bright colors, and peplum cuts – via rental and saving money to invest in more evergreen staples.

Wedding Weekend

The wedding era is no joke – expensive, exhausting, and also exhilarating. You’re going to want to feel your best, of course, but it really doesn’t make sense to spend hundreds of dollars on pieces you’re going to wear once, maybe twice. FashionPass has one of the best wedding guest selections we’ve found, and it just makes sense:

Coastal Summer

In addition to occasionwear, FashionPass also has an incredible selection of day-to-day staples for showers, celebrations, and beach and boat hangs. But because summer is such a trend-driven season, there’s a chance the clothes you buy for this summer won’t get much wear next summer. Here’s how we’d recommend leaning all the way into this season’s trends without the long-term investment:
