Don't Fret About Summer—These 37 Zara, Nordstrom, and Ref Items Are All You Need
I don't know about you, but summer completely snuck up on me. The last few months have flown by, and I'm finding myself feeling severely ill-equipped in the dressing department for the rest of this season. Luckily, I came up with a fast solution. After one afternoon spent scrolling through Reformation's, Zara's, and Nordstrom's websites, I've all but checked off everything on my summer wardrobe wish list that I should have snapped up months ago. Now, all that's left to do is enjoy it.
Since I've never been great at keeping secrets and it is my job to make navigating the market easier for all of you, I felt it was my duty to share all of my findings from my hours of research. Ahead, you'll find it all, from easy linen pants and even easier white sundresses to viral sunglasses and controversial mesh flats. Basically, the answers to your summer style woes are all just a scroll away.
