Last time we teamed up with CollegeFashionista, the style gurus spilled their tips for ruling the real world, whether by rocking an internship, conquering college or focusing on your future. Now, these girls are ready to share even more amazing advice in perfect summer style. Whether you're walking the beach with bae or partying with your pals, here's how to slay this season.

School: Rutgers University
Year: Senior
Major: Communications and Political Science
Favorite style tip for summer: My number one summer style tip is to always have a cool jacket on you. Whether it be a leather motto or a light bomber jacket, you'll be both fashionable and prepared for the warm summer days turned into cool nights. And always remember to have fun!
Three summer must-haves: My makeup must-have is Urban Decay All Night Setting Spray. Or any spray that'll beat the heat and keep your makeup intact. I also love a very stylish but compact bag that both keeps all your things in and isn't too heavy—that way you can stay cool. Make it a bright color so it can pop and reflect the cool season. Last is the perfect pair of sandals with a small box heel that'll keep you comfortable and fashionable throughout your long summer days.

Major: Marketing
Favorite style tip for summer: Wear an outfit you can do anything in. Summer is for making memories, enjoying warm weather outside and going on new adventures. I feel my best when I can be active and have fun in what I’m wearing!
Three summer must-haves: I’m digging the bandana trend so definitely a bandana, a cute little denim skirt and salt spray for my hair to get low-maintinence beach waves.

 

Name: Jazzmin Martinez
School: Humboldt State University
Year: Senior
Major: Communications
Favorite style tip for summer: Keep it simple. Some of my favorite summer outfits are just basics paired with jeans. Whether that's a vintage tee or a plain white blouse, summer is all about relaxing and keeping it casual. No school, no worries. If I can go shopping in it and also lounge around with friends in it, I'm good to go.
Three summer must-haves: SPF BB cream/lightweight foundation, a graphic baseball cap and bleach-washed denim.

 

Name: Mia Amaranto
School: Western Washington University
Year: Junior
Major: Fine Arts
Favorite style tip for summer: Wear loose-fitting clothes. It's going to be warm out these next few months, so wear clothes that will keep you cool and will let you move around comfortably.
Three summer must-haves: My three must-haves for this summer are sunscreen, lip balm and lotion because I believe this season is all about taking good care of your skin by protecting it and keeping it moisturized.

 

Name: Masoma Imasogie
School: University of Pennsylvania
Year: Senior
Major: Fine Arts
Favorite style tip for summer: The summer is all about comfortable weather appropriate fashion. Currently, I'm really into bodysuits: They are a simple piece that can be extremely versatile and can easily transition a day to night look. Plus, did I mention they are comfortable? Ultimately, comfort is key. Confidence looks better than any piece of clothing can, so find what fits you right and rock it.
Three summer must-haves: A leather jacket for the cool nights, a comfortable bodysuit and ripped boyfriend jeans.
