After two long years, The Summer I Turned Pretty is finally back on our screens, transporting us to Cousins Beach one last time. Whether you’re #TeamJeremiah or #TeamConrad, we can all agree that when it comes to Belly’s effortless and casual style, it’s impossible not to be obsessed. With the show delivering memorable fashion moments (like Season 1’s debutante ball looks or Belly’s retro rollerskating ‘fit from Season 2), we can’t wait to see both the drama and the outfit inspo Season 3 has in store.
Luckily, Belly’s style is easy to shop for and recreate IRL. (There are exact matches on the show’s Amazon storefront, and brands like American Eagle are dropping merch). To celebrate the return of the summer’s most dramatic love triangle, we curated some of our favorite looks from Season 3 so far, like coastal-inspired outfits fit for a New England summer to pieces that are perfect for campus strolls, just in time for back to school season.
Psst: We’ll keep this page updated with our favorite style inspo as new episodes drop, so be sure to bookmark!
This flirty floral number
The first few episodes of the season were light on the expected coastal fashion, but Belly made up for it with a blue and white dress fit for a New England summer. Granted, she wore it to a frat party, but we’ll take it. Belly sports a ton of Reformation dresses throughout the show, and the closest match I’ve found is this nearly-sold out option, but trust: There are still plenty of grandmillennial-inspired dresses out there you can snag and wear while summer lasts. Don’t forget a pair of strappy espadrilles to pair it with!
This comfy campus look
For a quintessential collegiate look, you can’t go wrong with Belly’s effortlessly styled oversized Beta Sigma Nu Crest hoodie, which she probably swiped from Jeremiah—but you can find on Amazon. The piece that absolutely caught our eye, though? Her amazing cherry red cat eye sunnies. Finish off the look with your fave biker shorts and your go-to sneaks.
This timeless back-to-school style
While The Summer I Turned Pretty has always been packed with summer fashion inspo, this season’s flashbacks and campus setting give us a glimpse into Belly’s school year style. Case in point: This classic look, complete with a simple black mini, oversized denim, loafers, and the pièce de résistance, a darling pair of ruffled socks. Honestly, you probably have most of the pieces to re-create this look hiding in your closet, but if not, we’ve found ’em for you below.
This sporty athleisure ‘fit
Leave it to Belly to make heartbreak look so good. After receiving devastating news (no spoilers here, I promise!), she styles sweatpants made for bed-rotting with a sleek and satin-y varsity jacket—and somehow, it kind of…works? If you’re not into wearing your sweats out in the wild, a bomber looks just as good when paired with denim or a mini. And if you’re curious about Belly’s classic leather backpack, it’s part of Coach’s collab with The Summer I Turned Pretty.
These frilly PJs
As both a #TeamConrad girlie and a seasonal pajama connoisseur, I obviously needed all of the details about the red set Belly was wearing when she and Conrad unexpectedly spend a cozy Christmas together in Cousins. Sadly, my fashion detective findings revealed that Belly’s Dôen set is no longer available—but don’t fret! I scoped out a ton of options that embody Belly’s cottagecore vibe, including a tank-and-shorts set in case you can’t wait until summer ends to steal her look.
This sophisticated outfit
Although Belly is known for her flirty and fun style, this ensemble delivers a more mature, grown-up look for her. She’s channeling her inner Susannah with Staud’s Nola Wool Sweater, but unfortunately it’s sold out. We found a very similar collared sleeveless option at Reformation, or just go with a baby blue cardigan. Her white jeans are Rolla’s Sailor Jean featuring a slim, high rise fit and a flared wide leg.
This dreamy blue dress
In the third episode, Belly wears this particular shade of blue more than once (see above)—perhaps she’s dropping hints with something blue (ahem!). She looked ethereal in this flowy mini dress for Susannah’s garden dedication. She wore Zimmerman’s Natura Ruched Mini Dress in Iris that’s no longer on sale, but we found a few dresses inspired by the silhouette. She paired it with a pair of strappy yet simple nude heels and a Coach Tabby Chain Clutch that’s part of their The Summer I Turned Pretty collab.
Belly’s jewelry
Many of the pieces Belly wears throughout the third season are from Brooklyn-based jewelry brand Catbird, including a certain important ring. The internet and #TeamConrad may have jokes about the ring’s modest size, but it complements Belly’s dainty taste in jewelry.
These delicate fine jewelry pieces—made from ethically sourced solid 14k gold (not gold-plated) and real recycled diamonds—are perfect for daily wear. You can mix and match bracelets, and layer necklaces just like Belly does.
