Slim, stylish shorts are a summer style essential, whether you’re heading to fireworks this coming weekend or a summer music festival thereafter.

Finding stylish yet subtle ways to work in seasonally appropriate color is a tricky balance to master. And yet, a soft T-shirt in a distinctive Lake Blue color is precisely the way to go, as it plays nicely off the blue chambray shorts (which nod to the U.S.A, of course).

There’s hardly a set of sneakers more classic or distinctive than SeaVees, especially when it comes down to dressing for warm weather. The vintage-washed, textured-linen upper will keep your feet cool, while the slim silhouette sits well beneath slim lightwash denim or tan chinos for travel.

This isn't necessarily surprising —the index has fallen 8.7% in the past year.
