Winter is a more forgiving season. Dark, dreary days that are likely to cure that seasonal depression of yours and allow for all the cute clothes in your closet. But you can still have the hottest of goth summers, provided you’re doing the damn thing right.
1. Lace Umbrella
Vintage Lace Umbrella (Black)
Here’s a life hack to keep you from sweating your balls (literal or metaphorical) off this summer: buy a black umbrella! As they all keep telling you, black clothes absorbs heat! A black umbrella above you will absorb the heat coming directly onto you, keeping you a couple of degrees cooler underneath. Plus, isn’t is super cute?
2. Cute, High-Waisted Shorts

It’s summer. No one needs you making a soup out of your own unmentionables by continuing to wear pants. Swap them out for some cute, high waisted denim shorts to keep that booty looking cute-y.
