No shade to fall fashion, but summer fashion has the most fun. We'll concede that the layering and textures of fall can be exciting, but the colors of summer are positively electrifying: the juicy cherry reds; the vividly verdant greens; the shocking pinks. And we haven't even gotten to the playful prints or the sultry cut-outs. Ready to put the theory to the test? Shop all the pieces you need for a bright summer ahead.
