Dress: JCrew Top: Kristensen Du Nord It’s officially summer, so naturally, it’s hotter than hell in the South right now. The beau and I have been going to weddings nearly every other weekend since March, but June traditionally marks the heyday of wedding season. Why brides decide it’s a good idea to have a wedding in June is beyond me. I sweat just wearing a sundress; I can’t even imagine wearing a suit. It seriously felt like I was walking through the desert just going to my car yesterday after work, so the thought of even more fabric on my body is already making my skin clammy.
At each wedding we’ve attended, there’s been at least one guy in a full seersucker suit. My cousin's wedding a few weekends ago marked the highest number I’d seen yet (at least four). Now, while I find seersucker suits to be quite the fashion statement, apparently Southern gentleman value seersucker for quite another reason: IT’S LITERALLY THE COOLEST FABRIC EVER. Completely made of cotton, seersucker is woven so that some of the threads bunch together and only 30% of the fabric is actually touching your skin at any given time. WHAT A GENIUS IDEA.
And obviously it’s great for everyday wear, too. Skirts, pants—even bathing suits—get a cute (and cool!) summer update when made with seersucker fabric. You better believe I’m filling up my closet with these chic finds. People say you shouldn't wear seersucker after Labor Day, but I say eff that. I'll be wearing these suckers year-round (and you should, too!).
