Following up on my recent outfit of the day post with the turquoise t-shirt knit skirt and cardigan, I have put together 16 summer OOTDs from the last few years that are based on turquoise or aqua items. Note that pieces absolutely do repeat across these outfits! In fact, I have tried to organize the photos to make those linkages between outfits more obvious. I've also included the color/print combination description with each photo. I hope you find something here to help inspire your summer style!
I also decided to add the cost, number of wears, and cost per wear stats for each of these items. As part of my intention to have a more sustainable wardrobe, I am focusing on the 30 wears & <$1 cost per wear (CPW) metrics for the items in my closet. I am sharing these stats because (a) I am always interested in seeing them in other bloggers' posts and (b) I hope to encourage all of us (whether we track our wardrobe stats or not) to keep the ideas of wears and CPW in mind. I am also happy to say that of the 7 items featured here, 6 of them were purchased secondhand!

Do you have any turquoise or aqua items for summer? How are you styling them? Do any of the outfits in this post resonate with you?
Blogs I link up with are listed here.
I have quite a lot of turquoise accessories but not a lot of clothing in that colour - you are making me regret that a little with these outfits as I love that skirt on you! There was a beautiful tiered maxi in this colour at a local store I admired but I thought about it too long and it sold out - should have just bought it when I had the chance!
Thank you for joining the #WeekdayWearLinkup! Hope you are having a lovely weekend :)

These color combinations are ones that I particularly enjoy. With hair and skin tones that trend toward the autumn/warm spring palette, I've always incorporated turquoise and aqua in my wardrobe. My favorite outfit in this post is the one with the orchid and aqua/teal combination. Thank you for participating in Talent-Sharing Tuesdays Link-Up 26.

It's one of my favorite colors but I don't have much of it. I especially like your turquoise pants.
