Tip #1: Look for fresh linens

"One of my favorite fabrics for summer is linen because it is light and breathable but still looks quite polished," Steele told "GMA." "Every summer I invest in a slightly oversized linen shirt and linen dress and wear them on repeat all summer long."

Tip #2: Try out crochet knitted looks

Steele is a huge fan of large crochet knitted looks for summer. "You'd think it would be extremely hot, but because the knit is loose it allows air to flow through and keep you cool," she said.

Tip #3: Layer on cool cotton + polyester combinations

"Lots of people turn their nose up at polyester but cotton/polyester blend fabric pieces keep you cooler than just cotton or polyester on their own," advised Steele. "Cotton is the best breathable fabric and polyester is great at keeping you dry! I have a few amazing 2-piece sets with a cotton/poly blend that is perfect for the hottest Miami days."

Tip #4: Step in style with an open-toe flat sandal

Steele pointed out that if your feet feel cool, the rest of your body tends to feel the same way. "Summer is the time to ditch socks and closed-toed footwear," she said.

Tip #5: Stay protected with a large brim sun hat

"A large brim sun hat is a must as well to help protect against UV rays," Steele said.

Last, but not least, Steele pointed out the importance of carrying water to stay hydrated and investing in a portable handheld fan. "I never leave home without one on the hottest Miami days," she said.
