Summer Shoes
No outfit would be complete without a good pair of shoes! The Clog Shoes would be perfect for backyard activities like gardening or badminton.

Summer Hats
Another fun summer accessory is a hat. Hats are a summer must-have for warding off sunburns on those extra hot days. The Lilli Sailor Cap conveys a sporty vibe whereas the Pheobe Hat is perfect for lounging around on a sunny beach. The Happy Hats pattern is a great and fun basic that would look splendid in a bright colors and small prints. You can use one of the following patterns to make one for your doll:
Summer Bags
There are plenty of places to go and things to see during the summertime, and to make sure your doll is prepared for every occasion make her a super stylish purse to bring along! Most of these purses can be easily done with summery cotton prints to make a purse as unique as your doll! Use one of the patterns listed (PS. the Sweet Scallops bag is free!):
Summer Jewelry
What would a summer outfit be without the perfect piece of jewelry to compliment it? You can make some basic necklaces or bracelets by stringing beads together, or try for something more detailed with one of these patterns:
Summer Hair Accessories
Hair accessories are always a lovely summer accent to add to any ensemble. If you feel like making a fun DIY check out the Flower Crown from Pixie Faire!
