23 Statement-Making Summer Pieces We’re Shopping Right Now
July 11, 2022 at 04:35PM
Summer is the perfect time to refresh your wardrobe with whimsical pieces that strike up a conversation. Whether, for you, that means a next-level tank from K.ngsley with a keyhole cutout at the shoulder – an eye-catching detail that instantly elevates the entire look – or rather, collecting kitschy fruit-shaped bags from the likes of Kate Spade New York, our editor-curated shopping list aims to inspire street style outfits that are uplifting, trend-driven, and personal.
This season, we’re reaching for items that invite compliments while also browsing for basics that can be continuously re-worn: take Birkenstock’s new collaboration with Staud, for example, which offers a luxe, croc-effect update to its Arizona slide that’s been popular for years, or any of the sunglasses here that speak to totally unique tastes. From Ray-Ban’s retro gold-rimmed aviators to Rhude x Thierry’s sculptural, minimalist cat-eye and Elisa Johnson’s rectangular ‘90s tortoise frame, these accessories are not easily retired. In the same vein, we’ve found a raffia beanie by NYC-based label Esenshel and a packable straw hat from Janessa LeonĂ© that help to complete any swimwear moment you’ve got coming up (and also make for classic purchases).
Ahead, you can shop nap dresses, colorful tanks, a seashell-crocheted beach dress, flashy heels for happy hour, ultra-soft lounge shorts, and even a pair of panties in a watermelon color scheme. Let them usher in the summer months, and feel not a smidgen of guilt investing in a piece that’s functional, but also an optimistic addition to your closet.
