Summer is officially here, and that means it is time for a wardrobe refresh! Luckily for us, our friend Blake Chapman, owner and founder of Barbara Blake’s Boutique, has invited Family Magazine readers into her summer launch to get a behind-the-scenes look at some of the hottest fashion for the season. From fun prints to sassy details and bold pops of color, this summer lookbook truly has it all. Check out this spread to gain fashion inspiration and learn more about BB’s summer favorites!
Monochrome Moment
Monochrome from head-to-toe including accessories are a huge trend this summer. While BB can normally be caught in all neutrals, this hot pink outfit instantly improved her mood with the bright, happy hues. This Barbie pink dress is a dupe for the viral Selkie dress that has blown up the internet in recent months. Paired with these fabulous pink shades, this gorgeous dress is a vibrant summer version of the current monochrome trend—and it’s safe to say that BB is loving it! If you’re a fan of the neutral monochrome trend, we suggest giving it a shot in vibrant hues for the perfect summer statement.

Flowy Dress Central
Florida is famous for its sunny skies, but all true Floridians know that the heat can be brutal in the summer! BB loves the sunshine, but she admits that it is a challenge to dress for those super hot days. To beat the heat, she loves rocking flowy statement dresses that help her stay cool. Not only are these dresses perfect for combatting the summer heat, but they can also be dressed up or down for almost any occasion. Dress this beautiful blue number down with sneakers or strappy sandals, or dress it up with trendy accessories and a pair of cute heels. You really can’t go wrong with a comfortable summer dress, and this stunning blue dress from Barbara Blake’s summer collection is definitely at the top of our list!
