Consider This Your Ultimate Guide to Kick Off Summer Shopping

Low and behold, another awesome way to wear denim that has nothing to do with jeans. That's just the first thing I love about this Zara top ($50). The second? Those perfectly frayed edges.

Everlane always masters the basics with precision, but its new Street Shoe ($140-$155; launches May 5) may be its best design yet. The slip-on sneaker's pointed toe feels high fashion, but I know I could wear them all weekend long without totally killing my feet.

Rebecca Taylor's collaboration with swimwear label Giejo is downright adorable. I'm basically planning all of my vacation outfits around this bikini (top $125, bottom $100).

In my dream world, I'm sitting pretty outside in this gorgeous one-shoulder dress from H&M ($70), sipping rosé (which I would obviously not spill). I'd accessorize with espadrilles and a sun hat.

I'm horrible with sunglasses: I forget to bring them, leisurely throw them in my bag where they end up getting scratched, or worse — lose them altogether. But with the sun getting stronger, I need something to shield my eyes. Le Specs Ziggy Sunglasses ($59) are cute enough to try and take care of, but they're still pretty affordable so that if I revert to my old ways, it won't be the end of the world (or a large portion of my paycheck down the drain).

Even though the weather is warming up outside, I know my office will still be too cool for sleeveless styles — especially when we crank up the AC. Rather than opt for an oversize cardigan, I'll be hanging this Bethnals Denim Duster Coat ($172) over my chair for when it gets chilly and I want a bit of (stylish) extra coverage.

The last thing I want to be when it's hot out is layered up in jewelry. Instead, I'll turn to delicate pieces with a bit of a wow factor like this Elizabeth and James bracelet ($168).

Who needs a statement necklace when you can tie on one of Aritzia's so very on-trend bandannas ($22). Don't underestimate just how cool it'll look, with everything.

After seeing Kate Bosworth in her flared overalls on the streets of New York, all I can think about is picking up a pair of my own. I love the Y-shaped straps on this Joe's Jeans Charlie '70s-inspired design ($229), and the pant leg spans just wide enough for me.

I've always been a fan of retro, superfeminine swimsuits, and Lolli's bow-embellished Cake Walk One-Piece ($143) is one of the cutest I've ever seen. Add a big floppy hat, and I'm ready to get my inner Audrey on at the beach come Memorial Day Weekend.

I love how Jason Wu's suede clutch ($895) hints at the season's '70s themes without hitting you over the head. Plus, just think how it'll complement all your Spring and Summer denim.

If I could get away with it, I would probably wear jeans every day, but this Summer I would gladly give them up for these Tibi Koi Jacquard Culottes ($425) instead. The loose fit is breezy enough for the sweltering New York City streets, but the fit still feels office friendly.

I'm already an avid fan and obsessive wearer of Westward Leaning's classic wayfarers, so when the brand released the new Concorde collection aviators ($205), I knew it was time to add a new pair of mirrored sunglasses to my stockpile.

It's confirmed: the Valentino Tango shoes are the new Rockstuds. My obsession has officially kicked in, and all I want is a pair of these cream patent-leather Mary Janes ($875). I swear I'd wear them with everything, from cropped denim to dainty floral dresses.

Gigi Hadid wore this flower-embroidered Blue Life jumpsuit ($228) for her birthday party, and now I can't get it out of my mind. I love the romantic dusty-rose color and the relaxed, wide-leg fit of the design.

I was never a huge fan of booty-baring cutoffs, so my go-to during the warmer months are a pair of sleek, structured, and slightly longer shorts. Loft's Fluid Bermudas ($55) are the perfect fit for my classic Spring and Summer style, and the bonus of not having to adjust or pull them down all day has me sold.

With all the bright blooms I spy on my morning walk to work, I think my office wardrobe is in need of a color infusion too. This Stella McCartney Drop-Waist Dress ($1,295) offers the bold pop of color I'm currently craving. And while paired with flats it's the perfect work dress, I could easily swap in fancier shoes for date night on the town.

With a trip to the beach on the horizon, I'm finally getting around to planning what to pack. I have a swimsuit and cover-up, the last thing missing is this Rag & Bone Panama Hat ($230). The wide brim will keep my face protected from the sun while the weave will keep my head cool — and while comfort is key, this topper happens to be überfashionable too.
