Switch Up the Summer Flow: Eva Marcille's Cool Summer Style

Hey G.O.G.'s

As summer pulls into full force, don't get stuck in the rut of sundresses and sandals/flip flops every day! There are plenty of style options to maximize the summer style months. There are looks for the hot daytime and cool evenings that will satisfy any style appetite without resorting to the what we call the "summertime uniform".

Model and actress Eva Marcille has a different sort of style, eclectic, if you will. She knows how to stand out and switch up her looks. Let's take a look at some of Eva Marcille's unique and funky summer style looks for a little inspiration, shall we?!


Eva looks great in this long and airy high-waisted creme skirt and printed sleeveless top. She accessorizes with a beanie, platform wedge sandals and a hobo bag. This is a fabulous look for the daytime and also for a fun evening dinner.

Tip: Try rocking one of this season's full, high-waisted skirts for a little summer fun. You can pair these full and ultra feminine skirts with a basic tank top or tee, or make them stand out with a shimmery tank top. Just avoid pairing one of these full and flowy skirts with a flowy top, it often destroys the shape of the skirt and can create an overall bulky look.



Eva looks lovely and summery in this floor length One By printed dress at the Los Angeles premier of the movie 'Jumping the Broom'.

Tip: a great way to switch up the regular summer maxi dress is to find some with long sleeves or quarter-length sleeves. They also come in wonderful prints and fabrics to suit almost any occasion, from day to a night out on the town. Pair it with flats for the day, or a great heel or platform wedge for the evening and you've got a great summer-ready ensemble.


A fashion statement like no other, this look is an eye-grabber. From the printed turban to the super high Versace heels, this look is eclectic and may not be for everyone. But if switching it up is something you're looking for, try adding a turban, glamorous shades and a pair of funky heels to any pair of jeans and top/tee-shirt, and you've got a fun summer outfit out of your usual.


At an event with her rumored beau, Eva goes more conservative with a tan and belted pencil dress and black pumps. She accents this look with a pair of glamorous sunglasses and sparkly clutch. This look can easily transition from Sunday morning service, to Sunday evening dinner.


Rocking a nice pair of boyfriend shorts, a grey tank top and stripped cardigan, she keeps its casual and fun.
Tip: A great way to spunk-up a regular daytime outfit is to add a nice colorful high-heel or wedge
 for a little pop. It can turn regular jeans and tees into something to talk about :-)


There you have it! Take it from Eva Marcille, there are plenty of fresh, fun and summery looks to rock this season. You don't have to get stuck in the sundress and sandal rut. Kick it up a notch!
