Let’s be honest — when the heat hits and the calendar fills up, nobody has time to stress over outfits. That’s where the summer uniform comes in. Not in the boring, corporate way… I’m talking about a formula that keeps you cool, confident, and always camera-ready without overthinking it.
Whether you're running around NYC, headed to a rooftop link-up, or just stepping out to catch a vibe, this 3-piece formula will keep your summer style effortless.
✅ Step 1: Start with Lightweight, Breathable Basics
Summer starts with the foundation. You want fabrics that move with you and breathe with you — because looking hot doesn’t mean feeling hot.
Your go-to options:
-
Oversized cotton or mesh tees (try Fear of God ESSENTIALS, Noah NYC, or Daily Paper)
-
Relaxed linen button-ups for a more polished vibe
-
Basic tanks or sleeveless tops that let your skin catch that breeze
Pro tip: Stick to neutrals or earth tones — they pair well with bolder accessories (like 👇🏽)
✅ Step 2: Add Your Signature Accessory — aka Your CIK Frames
Now we elevate. Your shades are the centerpiece. They set the tone. They make the fit yours.
CIK Eyewear was designed for this exact moment. Whether you’re dressed down or layered up, the right pair of frames brings energy, culture, and clarity to your look.
