First Fashion: Our Favorites from What's New

Summer is (officially) underway, and I’ve come to realize there are a few pieces out there that are must-haves for the season.
Lightweight Jersey
Casual, sexy, and ridiculously comfortable, jersey tops (like this one from 291) are perfect for the summer. Add a scoop back and a little tie-dye, and I’ve got the perfect top for catching cool breezes on a sweltering Saturday night.
Unique Footwear
Everyone and their sister is out flip-flopping in some sort of sandal, and the last thing I want is to saunter up to the bar, only to realize that every other girl lined up along the zinc is wearing some clone of the same strappy shoe. Can’t happen with this cool pair from Dolce Vita.
Effortless Dress
At shopbop we’ve been extolling the charms of the summer dress for weeks, and my love of its insta-chic properties and flattering silhouettes has not waned. This jersey number from Splendid is the epitome of simple style.

Forget Ruby Slippers, I’ll Take Those Gold Ones

I’ve been clinging to my patent leather shoes since the first of the year, but now that the sun is bright and the days are just about as long as they’re gonna get, reflective metallics are catching my eye. Normally I don’t have Shiny Object Syndrome, but with boots like these from Marc by Marc Jacobs and sandals from Dolce Vita and K. Jacques, I’m beginning to understand the appeal. And lucky for me, shopbop has devoted a whole section to metallics! Check out that trend and others here.

First Fashion: Our Favorites from What's New

Bright sun and temperatures pushing 90? With these three new pieces, I’ll soak it up, shopbop style.
A perfect balance of two major trends, Alice + Olivia’s Bustier Dress combines the maxi dress silhouette with ombré chiffon.
Tuleste market’s multi-strand necklace with yellow gold, rose gold, and silver chains is surefire “where did you get that?!” bait.
Dress? Check. Accessory? Check. Shoes? Here they are. These sandals from Dolce Vita are a more subdued take on the ubiquitous gladiator, and the pyramid detail gives it a pretty edge.

First Fashion: Our Favorites from What’s New

How do I head-off the Monday morning blahs? I gulp down gallons of iced coffee and start putting together my look for Friday night.
The draping detail at the front makes this sweeping dress feel fashion-forward, and the fitted cut makes it super flattering. An added bonus? It’s washable. So crucial in the sticky summer heat. Tart, Aphrodite Dress
I love the effortless chic of a maxi dress with flat metallic sandals, and the beautiful detailing on this pair from Dolce Vita makes them look pricier than they actually are. Dolce Vita Metallic Tulip Strappy Thong Sandal, Gold
Nothing brings a summer look together quite like a big, bold bracelet, and this earthy-yet-glamorous one fits the bill perfectly. Juicy Couture, Wood Brick Bracelet
So cheer up ladies! Friday’s only four days away. Get your weekend look together in What’s New.
