Fashion takes a lighter turn

As the seasons change, you’ll make the most of your summer wardrobe by adding fresh accents that lend themselves to layering. You can breeze along in a fitted sheath dress, then warm it up by simply draping a sophisticated blazer over your shoulders.

The new tunics put a dramatic twist on everything from skinny jewel-tone jeans to simple leggings. Another emerging trend is the monochromatic look, with every piece in the same color or tone. It’s all about finding the perfect blend.

Of course, shoes always deserve our attention. So look for playful details ranging from ankle straps to shiny spikes. Then pair with an oversized day clutch that takes you from day to evening without missing a beat.
