A stylish ‘fit featuring denim shorts and a white tee? Yep, that’s in here. A pretty dress vibe? Done. All that and more (complete with shopping inspiration) is coming your way ahead.
Bralette + Cardigan + Trousers
Whether it's a bralette or a tank top, the silhouette will feel fresh with a pair of classic trousers and a cardigan.
Blazer + White Tee + Cutoffs + Slides
Love the denim-cutoffs–and-tee look? Why not toss on a blazer (if it's not too hot) and slip into chic slides too?
Tank + White Shirt + Trousers + Flip-Flops
Team a tank with an open button-down shirt and tuck into trousers. A pair of trendy flip-flops feel quite fresh for the season.
T-Shirt + High-Waisted Jeans + Sandals
Jeans and a tee is as classic as it gets. The trick here is tucking in the tee for a streamlined look.
Tee + Skirt + Tube Socks + Sneakers
Pair a printed T-shirt with a black skirt and amp up the cool factor even more with tube socks and retro sneakers.
Tank Dress + Mules
A tank dress on its own is inherently chic—especially with a colorful pair of sandals.
Crop Top + Slouchy Blazer + Trousers
You can't beat a crop-top–and-shorts or pants pairing. Adding a slouchy blazer is a nice finishing touch.
