Everyday Wear

I’ve said it once, and I am saying it again; stock up on shirts while they are on sale. It is so easy to gravitate towards dresses and skirts but tops are extremely versatile. 1 reminds me of vacation! The hues are so happy and the bubble sleeves are so 2017. You already know my stance on cropped denim so consider 4 a wardrobe staple. Free People apparel doesn’t go on sale often. Take advantage of it while you can.

Swimwear

Bikinis are a thing of the past. The one-piece is the new two-piece and I’m ok with it. How about this hot little peplum suit (9)?! I never new a solid black bathing suit could be so sharp. On the other end of the spectrum, 8 is a playful take on an oldie but a goodie: camoflauge!

Accessories

In my book, investing in accessories is always a good idea. They have the ability to transform an ok outfit into a fashion masterpiece. I have no doubt x would accomplish just that. Globe earrings (13) are trending but this is the first multicolor pair to catch my eye. If you’re going to splurge on a unique summer item, consider this wooden purse (11). I love it because it reminds me of a modern day basket bag.

You already know I am a huge fan of two-piece sets because they take the thinking out of getting dressed. This tomato red pair, by findersKEEPERS, is simply chic. The fitted crop top features a wrap front detail and exposed back zipper, making it a great standalone piece also. Picture this stunner with white high-waisted flare leg jeans. I stuck to basics this time around and styled it with matching trouser shorts. The front pleated design and exposed zipper add just enough oomph to an otherwise basic bottom.

Accessorizing with a solid ensemble is like the start of a new painting – the options are endless. Here is how you can transform a sophisticated look into an eclectic one. Begin with a funky pair of shoes. I chose gladiators because you can never go wrong with a black wedge. Now when it comes to jewelry, always remember, the funkier the chunkier. Knee-high lace-up sandals and dainty jewels do not go together – save the pearls for when you wear your pumps. The Vanessa Mooney necklace and cuff were the right mod additions, and the pop of turquoise was an added bonus. Red and turquoise will forever remain one of my favorite color combos.
