July's Hottest Looks: How to Nail the Nashville Summer Vibe

July in Nashville is a whole mood. The city is buzzing with concerts, rooftop parties, and long, sunny days. And when the temperatures rise, so does our style game. So, what’s the secret to looking effortlessly cool when it’s hot as a hot chicken sandwich outside? It's all about strategic styling and knowing where to shop. We’re breaking down the must-have trends for Summer 2025 and, of course, telling you exactly where to get them with a little help from our curated shopping tours.

Trend 1: The New Western. Forget the cliché, rhinestone-cowboy look. This season’s Western is polished, earthy, and effortlessly chic. Think modern silhouettes mixed with classic ranch-inspired textures. We’re talking about fringe bags that move with you, sleek suede pieces, and cowhide accessories that make a statement without screaming "yeehaw." This trend is perfect for a night out on Broadway or a low-key brunch in 12South.

• Where to find it: We’re loving the denim on denim looks and chic suede pieces popping up in places like e.Allen and curated boutiques in the Gulch. Our Bevē Curated Shopping Tour can help you navigate the best spots to find a buttery-soft suede jacket or a standout fringe crossbody that will have everyone asking, “Where did you get that?”

Trend 2: Dopamine Dressing. If you haven’t heard the term, you’ve definitely seen it. This trend is all about wearing joyful, mood-boosting colors and prints. Think vibrant hues like Kelly green, cobalt blue, and punchy reds mixed with fun patterns like eyelet, crochet, and patchwork. It’s a playful, carefree vibe that feels made for summer festivals and rooftop cocktails.

• Where to find it: Our stylists on the Bevē Curated Shopping Tour are experts at finding pieces that pop. We’ll take you to boutiques that specialize in unique, colorful finds and help you put together a look that’s pure sunshine. Just imagine a floaty, crochet dress paired with bright red sandals—a perfect look for an outdoor concert or a stroll through Cheekwood Gardens.

Trend 3: The Mini Skirt is Back, and She Brought Friends. This season, hemlines are going to extremes, and we’re loving it. Whether you’re rocking a micro-mini or a flowy, linen maxi skirt, it’s all about embracing the length that makes you feel fabulous. Paired with a fitted baby tee, a tailored vest, or a simple tank, a great skirt is a summer essential.

• Where to find it: From classic denim minis to pleated tennis skirts and sleek silk maxis, we know all the stores with the best selection. Let us curate a tour to find your perfect fit and accessories—we can even find you the perfect chunky chain necklace or straw bag to complete the look.

Nashville's style is all about confidence and a little bit of Southern flair. This July, let us help you find the perfect pieces to heat up your wardrobe. Book a Bevē Curated tour and let's get shopping!
