If you're getting married this summer, consider a stylish white midi dress for your upcoming event. Pairing it with mesh heels feels modern in a fresh way.
Ladies in the office, this look is for you. Wear a sharp white suit to your next meeting to stand out amid a sea of dull black options.
If you're shopping for easy day-off essentials, consider pairing linen pants with a similarly effortless linen shirt. Red flats add a pop of color to the monochrome vibes.
It doesn't get much chicer than wearing jeans and a cute top. In this case, the "cute top" in question is a classic cotton button-down. This combination always works.
Give your tees and tank tops a break and choose a vest this summer. Pairing it with slim-fitting white jeans or trousers maintains the smart vibe. You can wear this to work or on your day off.
Bermuda shorts are one of the most controversial summer trends, but I love them. They're great for petites because you won't need to take them to the tailor. Picking a white pair of strappy sandals can also make your legs look longer.
Embrace boldness by pairing your office-friendly pencil skirt with a delicate bra top this summer. It's a cool-girl look that earns serious style points.
