My 57-Year-Old Mom Says These Summer Staples Are Timeless

Ask 10 people what their go-to summer staples are and you'll likely get ten different answers. Some lean toward trendier picks while others like to stick to the classics, and somewhere in the latter group falls my incredibly stylish mother who's actually no stranger to this whole contributor thing

Taking that (and the fact that summer is finally here) into consideration, I recently decided to tap her and have her share just what she thinks the most timeless and investment-worthy warm-weather essentials are. Graciously, she delivered, providing us with eight undeniably important picks from frocks to footwear, and today, you get to read about each one and, of course, shop them in a range of styles and price points. To get started taking it all in, simply keep scrolling.

"A great straw or raffia bag can be worn both by the beach or out to dinner and will always be a staple."

"I love to take advantage of the summer season and wear as many light sundresses as possible. They just the most fitting on a warm, beautiful day."

"They last for years, never go out of style, and are one of the chicest options for a summer flat."

"Colored sunglasses (as opposed to black) are not only functional in summer but add an interesting element to every outfit."

"Even if you're just at home, wearing linen in summer automatically makes you feel like you're on vacation."

"Gold jewelry has always been timeless, but it looks especially good when paired with a light and bright, summer-ready wardrobe."

"Aside from being cool and comfortable for the warmer months, wide-leg pants are extremely versatile and can be easily dressed up or down."

"Summer-ready espadrilles are widely regarded as one of the most timeless shoe styles and I couldn't agree more."

Next, I shop all day for a living—these are the coolest things I've seen this month.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
