it’s still limoncello summer to me
Lemons are one of my favorite things, and there is just something about summer that makes their freshness and brightness much more craveable. Plus, who doesn’t love a little touch of the Italian dolce vita energy? Enter 2025’s trend: Limoncello Summer. A vibe that evokes golden hour on the Amalfi Coast, citrus cocktails, and being surrounded by the endless sun-soaked shades of yellow. Limoncello is more than just a yummy drink; it’s a whole vibe. From beauty to home and fashion, this trend is all about capturing the sparkling, citrus energy and bringing it into your everyday life.
It’s the color that’s been everywhere this season, and I’m not quite ready to say goodbye to it yet, so here is how to keep embracing it a little while longer.
Home
Bring the Amalfi Coast home with pops of sunny yellow in your space. A vase of fresh lemons, a lemon tree, citrus-printed linens, or a lemon-scented candle instantly add joy to a room. Limoncello in decor isn’t about being loud; it’s about layering small, sunny touches that make the space come alive and feel like living in a breezy Italian villa.
Style
The quickest way to step into limoncello summer? Wear it. From silky sundresses in bright lemon to a simple pop of color in a bag or sandals, this color offers a variety. Pair it with crisp whites or with denim for a laid-back look. If you’re bold enough, go for an all yellow look with a limoncello manicure for the perfect fashion statement.
Beauty
My personal favorite limoncello beauty is a toss-up between manicures and lemon-forward fragrances. But overall, this summer it’s about giving glassy skin a makeover. Radiant, dewy skin with golden highlights that mimic the shimmer of sunlight on water. Citrus-inspired perfumes that are refreshing and keep the limoncello mood alive all day. And, of course, the perfect hair gloss to give the gorgeous sun-kissed light blonde highlights dreams are made of.
