We usually think that we have to bare our bodies to survive the hot weather, but some of us tend to feel conscious of showing off our bodies—and that's perfectly fine! So if you're part of the latter, here are modest outfits you can stay cool in:

1. Look every inch of a lady in the sweltering summer heat with a white sleeveless button-down, pastel lace midi skirt, and white loafers.

2. Nothing beats the cotton white tee and khaki linen pants combo.
