Don't you love those days when you can wear a bathrobe around the house? If you do, then you will love wearing terry cloth. As Shireen Sandoval shows us, the fabric is very Fashion Forward for summer.

(WSVN) -- You don't have to be lounging around the spa or the pool all day to wear one of this summer's most fashionable fabrics -- terry cloth.

Corina Biton from Neiman Marcus: "Terry cloth is in and it's hot. We have tons of terry cloth in different colors, in pinks, yellows, greens, purples, you name it, we've got it."

At Neiman Marcus in Bal Harbor, the terry trend is very in.

That's because the fabric is oh so soft and perfect to wear in South Florida's humid weather.

Corina: "It actually doesn't make you warm at all. Since it's cotton, it's very loose fitting and very airy."

Designers, like Juicy Couture are making everything terry this season.

Put on a pair of terry cloth pants and a tennis-inspired top.

Or slip on a terry mini... The fabric is mostly for day, but you can take it into night.

Corina: "Terry cloth you could probably just mix and match, like the convertible dress, you could wear it with jeans or pants, you could wear shorts with a regular cotton t-shirt. You could mix and match or you could wear it from head to toe, whatever your choice and whatever your mood that day."

At Old Navy, they have tons of terry... And we're not just talking about clothes.

Slip on a pair of terry cloth flip-flops to go along with your outfit.

They have everything from pants... To tops... To jackets in plenty of different colors.

Wear it from head to toe, or pair it up with your favorite jeans.

And be sure to top off your look with a matching hat.

Corina: "It's very comfortable, loose fitting, it's a wonderful, wonderful trend."

The look is sport chic... A no hassle, worry free, fabric for summer.

Corina: "It's easy to wash, you could just stick it in the dryer and you're ready to go.

At Old Navy, the possibilities are endless, including terry cloth beach bags.
