Sweating? Same. Here's What to Wear.

Let’s be honest—Florida summers are not for the faint of heart. The heat starts before 9am, the humidity sticks around all day, and sometimes just walking to your car feels like a full-on sweat session. So when the temps are sky-high, getting dressed shouldn’t feel like a chore—it should feel like a relief.

With that being said, let us let you in on a little secret...It’s all in the textures. YEP! That simple.

This time of year, we’re reaching for light, breathable fabrics that float on the skin— gauze, linen, and airy cotton blends. And no one does that better than Michael Stars.

Michael Stars has mastered effortless summer style, and their pieces couldn’t be more perfect for Florida living. Take the Kate Gauze Surplice Tank—made from featherlight cotton, it drapes just right, with a flattering crossover front that dresses up or down with ease. Pair it with the Medina Smocked Waist Cropped Pant (trust us, the smocked waistband is as comfy as it gets), and you’ve got your go-to outfit for everything from a morning coffee run to a sunset dinner on the water.

If you're in a one-and-done kind of mood, the Ola Linen Utility Dress checks every box—easy, breathable, polished, and so flattering. It’s the kind of dress that works whether you’re on vacation or just pretending to be.

We’ve carried Michael Stars at Jaffi's for years—and for good reason. These are the pieces our customers fall in love with again and again. The quality is unmatched, the silhouettes are timeless, and the fabrics are dreamy. They’re made to move with you, not cling to you—exactly what you want when Florida feels like a sauna.

Beyond the clothes, we love the heart behind the brand. Co-founded in 1986 by Suzanne Lerner and her husband Michael Cohen, Michael Stars started with just a few graphic tees and has since grown into a collection of timeless essentials built to last—and be passed down. Suzanne’s vision extends far beyond style. Through the Michael Stars Foundation, the brand supports grassroots organizations focused on gender, racial, and economic equity. Over 70% of their garments are produced in LA, keeping the process ethical, local, and sustainable. That California-cool energy you might be picking up on? It’s real—and it’s backed by purpose.

So if you’re ready to upgrade your summer wardrobe with pieces that breathe easy and wear beautifully, now’s the time. These textures? They’re what summer dreams are made of.
