Instead of a Dress, Consider a Matching Skirt-and-Top Set for Summer

Shop 18 of our favorite coordinated separates.

Dressing for warmer months doesn’t have to be complicated. A few summer skirts here and a couple of matching tops there will ensure you’re a sartorial success—no matter how hot and icky the days may be. Whether it’s a floral midi-skirt paired with a coordinating cropped bandeau or a striped maxi coupled with a puff-sleeve blouse, relying on sets is a surefire way to guarantee you’ll look great no matter where you’re headed. Plus, they’re a little more fun than a one-and-done dress, wouldn’t you say?

Many designers certainly agree that matchy-matchy style is an effortless way to make a chic statement. Erdem gives us blossoming two-piece looks and Staud delivers drawstring-trimmed separates. And while these coordinated ensembles look incredibly polished, at the heart of their essence is an undeniable sense of ease, which is crucial for comfortably reemerging in style. If you’re thinking about doubling down on the twinning outfit formula, ahead find the best summer skirts and matching tops to shop online.
