Graduation season is here, and many colleges have already held their ceremonies. As we head into more graduation ceremonies, the weather is warming up, and ceremonies are being held outside. This means we need to be cool and comfortable while sitting in the sun and watching our favorite student graduate. Pro tip: you can add your favorite sun hat to any of these graduation outfits.

While my daughter who graduated from college on the east coast had her ceremony indoors, my son will have his in June outside, in the sun. I am looking forward to wearing something cool and comfortable, such as the graduation outfit ideas for mom shown above. If you have been following along, you already know these are outfits I wear often for different occasions. This is the great thing about a graduation outfit, you can wear it for lunches, events, and on warm summer days. An outfit doesn’t need to be worn only once; it should be repeated often. You can easily mix it up with different shoes and accessories. Love that!

So, without further ado, here are a few graduation outfit ideas for mom, with alternate footwear you can easily shop online:

Hermes nail polish summer 2026 review

hermes nail polish summer 2026 review

Hermes nail polish summer 2026 from left: Hermes Bleu Cyane nail polish / Hermes Rose Anemone /

Hermes has given us two new, beautiful shades of nail polish for the summer 2026 season; and I love them! There is a fabulous periwinkle named Bleu Cyane, which is in line with the oceanic hues we have been seeing this summer season. There is also a classic summer, bright rose named Rose Anemone.

If you are in a blue mood, Hermes Bleu Cyane nail polish offers a periwinkle hue which gives you a slightly lilac-blue base for the summer. It’s a beautiful color I plan to wear often. In fact, I am wearing it as I type this! Love!

For pink and rose fans, Rose Anemone by Hermes is a fabulous, bright hue for the warm weather seasons. It will play well with your entire summer wardrobe. Love that!

I tested both colors from Hermes out with one base coat and two coats of the color. Both cream polishes went on smoothly without streaking.

So, without further ado, here are the two shades of nail polish from Hermes for the summer 2026 season!

Summer dress and studded sandals

wearing: gold hoops / long sleeve dress / Chanel clutch / summer nail polish / studded sandals c/o Cecelia /

This dress is turning into my spring and summer go-to look for events, graduations, and going out to dinner. It can be styled so many different ways just by switching up my bag and shoes. Love that!

For dinner out, I paired this long sleeve summer dress with these fabulous, studded high heel sandals and my vintage golden clutch. These high heel sandals are really comfortable and so easy to wear casually as well as dressy. Love that!

I have also been pairing these studded, high heel sandals with jeans, maxi skirts, and other dresses. They are the perfect edgy go-to for the summer season. Love!
