Newborn sling for summer - getting more adventurous

Hi, hoping some of the expert sling wearers on here can help me!

I am expecting DC2 at the end of May. With DD, we had a Close and then a solarweave Connecta (which I found only worked from about 6 months, as before that she was too low in it when I borrowed a friend's).

This time round, I am more adventurous and would consider a wrap or something I have to tie if that was the best option(was too scared last time!). However, it's going to need to be suitable for summer, because DC2 will be tiny through the hottest part of the year. I found that the Close stopped being good as DD reached about 1 as it tended to slide up and then pull at my shoulders, and the Connecta is a bit battered, so something that would last past newborn stage would be great too.

Don't want much do I? Any recommendations?

My Calin Bleu gauze wrap was lovely and cool for my first 2 summers with DD and pretty .

She's now 2 and I'd probably use something more supportive for longer walks. (Not quite sure what I'll choose for the summer yet...)
