"The Summer I Turned Pretty” Fashion Secrets, From Belly’s Butter-Yellow Dress to Reformation FavoritesWe are proud participants in "The Summer I Turned Pretty" fandom here at Popsugar (way before the recent hype). And can you really blame us? Although completely fictional, the complexity and allure of the show's love triangle is so relatable - namely, the entanglement of Belly Conklin (Lola Tung) with Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) and Conrad Fisher (Christopher Briney), who also happen to be brothers. A classic, messy love story. While our eyes are constantly glued to the screen in anticipation of the latest drama every Wednesday, we're paying attention to the outfits just as much as the story - not because they're absolutely groundbreaking as far as sartorial convention goes, but because of their accessibility. As a young woman with an ever-evolving emotional identity, Belly displays a fashion sense that's equal parts appropriate, classic, and effortless. We're talking all-encompassing wardrobe staples like flirty, printed dresses from Reformation for daily escapades, Levi's jeans for wedding dress shopping, and her Victoria Beckham bridal gown that's only $1,250 - far from your average bridal ensemble splurge. We also see noteworthy style from other characters, like Taylor Jewel, that reflects the essence of the series' magical setting, Cousins Beach. Inspired by East Coast beach towns, including Martha's Vineyard and The Hamptons, the timeless aesthetic feels particularly achievable.
