Wear A Vest With: Summer Shorts

You’ve checked off summer shorts as your must-have item of the year. Now what? Don’t fall into a seasonal style rut right off the bat—take your everyday style and kick it up a notch. Try pairing a classic striped tee and denim shorts with a long, duster vest.

Stylist Tip: Handkerchiefs are so hot right now. To try this trend, fold your handkerchief into a triangle, roll it up lengthwise and tie it around your neck.

Wear A Vest With: Palazzo Pants

Lightweight, airy and oh-so chic, palazzo pants are a great summer staple for the boho girl. Pick a bold print in colors that coordinate with your vest, and keep your top neutral. Add a nude pump or pop-color flat to embolden your look.

Stylist Tip: Petite? Opt for a stacked heel or wedge shoe with these billowy pants to avoid looking like you’re swimming in fabric.

Wear A Vest With: Tonal Separates

Take a page from street style mavens and sport your vest over separates of the same light summer tone. White is the classic example, but blushes, blues and jewel tones will also look seasonally chic.

Stylist Tip: Don’t be afraid to play with texture when going monochrome. A little lace or rougher denim will add visual interest (and fun!) to your tonal look.
