As school draws closer for parents and students across the country, it’s a bittersweet reminder that our long nights and sunny days are not here forever. Cocktails (or mocktails) and brunch on the patio will start to give way to mugs of hot cocoa by the fire when the crisp cool of next season sets in. 

Fear not — we still have time! Time to wear those fabulous maxis and minis, time to enjoy linens and sandals, daisy dukes and tanks while slurping on a popsicle or margarita to keep cool. Keep rocking your bold suit with shorts and whimsical summery prints while you start planning your fall wardrobe and hitting up back-to-school sales.

Before you hit the racks, pull out faves from your summer closet and treat yourself to wearing things that bring you joy. What better way to celebrate than with the perfect summer cocktail attire? 

Bold tropical colors and breezy fabrics are still key while we in the northern hemisphere enjoy our remaining sunny days before skies give way to moodier greys and our world is alight with a diffused glow and the ground with crunchy red and gold leaves. 

Find a sunny spot while you can! Soak in the vitamin D and laughter with your friends and wear your summer best. Check out these nine gorgeous summer cocktail looks as we begin to say adieu to the season.
