First Fashion: Our Favorites From What's New

My boyfriend’s ex invited us to her huge Hamptons wedding at the end of August. A brief description of said ex? Pretty, successful, funny, and unfailingly kind. Needless to say, I’m in the midst of a full-on fashion freakout. My current what-the-hell-should-I-wear frontrunners follow:
	Creative draping gives this style a couture sort of vibe that says “I’m fashion-forward and arty, but still respect that this is a formal event.” Mint Jodi Arnold Strapless Drape Dress
	I always reach for Shoshanna when I need to feel fantastic—girl knows to cut a dress that flatters. Plus, my shoulders are the only part of my body I don’t have some major hang-up about, and this shows them off nicely. Shoshanna Scallop Dress
	So ladylike and elegant. The color goes great with the gold Pedro Garcia sandals I’m going to wear. (And the permanently-filled glass of champagne I’m planning to have in my hand.) Lauren Merkin Diana Satin Clutch
Those difficult events in life? So much easier to get through with great fashion on your side. Get yours right here in What’s New.

First Fashion: Our Faves from What’s New

In the interest of full disclosure, when it comes to fashion I pretty much never stray from the classic. But when a girl has options like this, why on earth would she?
	I’ve had a minor (okay, major) obsession with Lauren Merkin handbags since I started working at shopbop three years ago, and this casual yet sophisticated clutch is fueling the flames. Lauren Merkin - Ava Textured Clutch
	I love a slim jean, but I’ve never quite jumped on the skinny bandwagon. This pair lets me rock the sleek style, while the dark wash caters to my timeless inclination. GoldSign - Foxy Straight Leg Jean
	When I’m feeling the need to branch out from my standard go-tos, Helmut Lang is my brand. In a light corduroy, this jacket is perfect for cool summer nights and not-quite-cold fall days. Helmut Lang - Shawl Collar Motorcycle Jacket

Bold Shoes + Bags to Bring Your Summer Look Together

Much as we love the ease of summer dressing - little tees and tops, flirty frocks, and pedicure-baring flip-flops - sometimes we start to feel a little, well, bored by it all. And that's where brilliant bags and shoes from the likes of LeSportsac, Lauren Merkin, and L.A.M.B. come to the rescue. A quirky-sweet floral tote and patent flats add polish to an easy daytime look, while a structured clutch and retro-chic sandals take the little sundress to a chic new level. Bold shoes and bags that take your summer look from "meh" to magnificent? Find them right here, at shopbop.
