Summer Whites
Summer whites—as essential to the season as a great cocktail and surf tunes. The trend is easy enough to pull together, but sometimes we could use a little extra inspiration to take the look further. Do you want to be casual-cool meets bohemian? Or perhaps you'd like a more feminine and flirty vibe? Here, a few outfit formulas, inspired by fashion's greatest muses...
Jean Shrimpton
Nothing says summer like a great pair of white jeans. Make like Jean Shrimpton and pair your denim with an easy button-down top—in white, of course—and finish with a natural straw hat and slide-on sandals.
