The Best Memorial Day Weekend Looks to Kick Off Summer, Courtesy of Nordstrom

We're all guilty of rolling to brunch in yoga leggings, but Memorial Day weekend deserves your best-looking effort, which you can easily achieve with no effort at all. The trick is to opt for an easy and neutral combination of a tank and jeans, but elevated with on-trend details and striking shapes. A smocked gingham tank ($29) paired with cuffed wide-leg jeans ($295) is cool and contemporary, especially with accessories like sharp cat-eye sunglasses ($350), ruffle-strap sandals ($128), and reddish-orange lipstick ($28).

If you don't ring in Summer near a body of water, are you even doing it right? Show off a statement one-piece swimsuit ($195) by wearing it underneath a sheer button-down tunic ($78). Between the classic red and white stripes, the bustier cut, and the waist belt, this suit gives off major vintage vibes. Contrast it with modern accents like a geometric straw bag ($328), sleek leather slides ($595), and a delicate pendant necklace ($64). And don't forget an aloe-infused facial spray ($20) to help soothe your sun-exposed skin!

For a day of eating, playing, and kicking back with your family and friends, an off-the-shoulder minidress ($55) allows you to show off your sense of style without sacrificing comfort. The same goes for a belt bag ($198) and espadrille sneakers ($55), both of which are sleek yet practical. Top off the look by drawing attention to your face with a pair of statement acrylic earrings ($161) and a healthy glow thanks to a bronzer palette ($68).
