Summer Style Memorial Day Outfit Inspiration
By Felicia Czochanski Bisaro
With a long weekend to celebrate and the sun shining, Memorial Day is finally here to kick off the summer season. Summer is synonymous with pool parties, beach days, picnics and fun time outdoors with family and friends. This season change is the perfect moment to break out your summer wardrobe and set the stage for the warm weather months. As you finalize your plans for the long weekend and start thinking about what to wear, don’t forget that Goodwill® can be your one-stop shop for all things outfit inspiration and shopping.
With the turn of each season, stopping by Goodwill with a bag of donations that no longer fit or bring joy is a great way to make room in your closet for a new season of items that meet you exactly where you’re at this year. After dropping off the donation bag, take a look around the racks and see what you find that sparks your interest. It could be an amazing blazer that could dress up any spring or summer dress for work, a cute hat that could be the perfect accessory for a beach day or even a full new-to-you outfit that makes you feel ready to take on every fun opportunity the summer throws your way.
Shopping at and donating to your local Goodwill store makes your dollars go even further. As a nonprofit organization, Goodwill sells your donations and uses that money to invest back into the local community through job training, support services and other resources for those in need. It’s an amazing way to not only be part of a circular economy but also give back to those living in your area who need an extra boost.

long weekend to celebrate and the sun shining, Memorial Day is finally here to kick off of the summer season. Synonymous with pool parties, beach days, picnics and fun time outdoors with family and friends, this holiday is the perfect moment to break out your summer wardrobe and set the stage for the warm weather months. As you finalize your plans for the long weekend and start thinking about what to wear, don’t forget Goodwill can be your one-stop-shop for all things outfit inspiration and shopping.
With the turn of each season, stopping by Goodwill with a bag of donations from the previous season that no longer fit or bring joy is a great way to make room in your closet for a new season of items that meet you exactly where you’re at this year. After dropping off the donation bag, take a look around the racks and see what you find that sparks your interest. It could be an amazing blazer that could dress up any spring or summer dress for work or a night out, a cute hat that could be the perfect accessory for a beach or pool day, or even a full outfit head to toe new-to-you that makes you feel ready to take on every fun opportunity the summer throws your way.
Shopping at and donating to your local Goodwill store makes your dollars and gently loved items go even further. As a non-profit organization, Goodwill takes your donations and sells them, using that money to invest back into the local community through job training and resources and jobs themselves. It’s an amazing way to not only be part of a circular economy, but also give back to those living in your area who need an extra boost.

Ice cream on a sunny day paired with the statement sunglasses and the perfect, colorful jumpsuit is the ultimate summer combination. This Goodwill shopper found this incredible and unique piece at her local Goodwill.

Memorial Day calls for red, white and blue, but make it fashion! I love this Goodwill shopper’s look with fun red sunglasses, a clean white tank and stylish denim remade with an asymmetrical scarf down one leg. It’s perfect for a picnic and game day in the park.

From the park to a day of thrifting, the pops of color in this outfit turn it into something special. Love the red highlights on this Goodwill shopper’s sneakers, bag and lipstick. You can never underestimate the impact a statement accessory can have on an outfit.
