With summer just around the corner, my mind is clearly already in warm-weather mode. I’ve updated my outdoor patio furniture, purchased a new linen bedspread, booked a tropical vacay, and bought a set of ice-pop molds. The only last thing to do is get my wardrobe into gear.
While I don’t need to go overboard with a whole new season closet, I do want to invest in a few essential pieces that will have me looking altogether on-trend and ready for the sultry days to come. So what’s hot in the sartorial department this summer? I looked to the S/S 21 collections along with what’s buzzing on Instagram to see what key items you need to look on-trend this summer. From micro mini skirts to strappy tops and cushy thong sandals, take a peek below to get inspired for a sunny and hopeful new season ahead.
Backless dresses are a must-have trend for summer—spotted all over Instagram and at countless designer collections from Victoria Beckham to Nanushka. They work for everything from beachwear to more formal occasions.Cushy thong sandals (aka flatform flip flops) have been elevated to cool-girl status. Seen all over the runways and on our favorite fashion girls, the comfy trend is one we fully stand behind this summer. Plus, they go with everything in your wardrobe.Hemlines are rising this summer with micro skirts and mini dresses reigning supreme. From 60s-style micro skirts and mini slip dresses, it's time bare those legs.Tops with wrap-around ties and crisscrossing cords (or what we like to call floss tops) are having a major moment this warm-weather season. Pair them with high-waisted shorts or for full-on midriff flossing style with a matching wraparound skirt.While we may not be getting rid of our chunky chokers altogether, this summer is all about long necklaces. Many designers introduced statement pendants on longer chains (featuring everything from beads to colored stones) or for a more bohemian, laidback feel layer your necklaces as seen at Dior and Chloe.From rainbow stripes to checkerboard prints and bright florals—colorful and optimistic prints are a sure-fire way to boost your mood this summer.It's all about romantic and delicate textured fabrics this summer such as lace, eyelet, and broderie Anglaise. Opt for a little white dress to pull off the trend.The best bag for summer 2021 is humble and handmade. Think net market bags, straw carryalls, and woven totes.Lean into casual lounge shorts this season to pair with your cushy thong sandals and a breezy top. Perfect for the sweltering heat.Ok, so you may not step out the house in just a bra, but bras were literally everywhere in the spring/summer collections and the easiest way to pull off the trend is to layer it under a breezy button-down resort shirt, sheer top or let it show through under a dress.
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...

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...
