Now here's an excellent way to dress up my day-in-and-day-out denim routine!

1. Co denim dress,
2. Scosha hoop earrings,
3. Heritage Jewelry pearl, topaz and gold ring,
4. Indego Africa bucket bag,
5. Gucci sandals,

This summer anklets and sandals will go together like rosé and the beach. Making the most of this pairing are jewelry maker Chan Luu and shoe designer Carrie Forbes, with their just-launched collab of pretty pearl anklets and chic raffia sandals. Both can be worn individually (and over and over again), of course, and can be found ! P.S. The gorgeous ikat-print Ulla Johnson dresses, above, are on super sale and !

I'm going to shine my way through summer soirees in this sparkly (and sexy) statement!

Summers past have seen lots of LWD's (little white dresses), but this year calls for the same acronym but a below-the-knee hem length: A.K.A., the long white dress. The head-to-toe silhouette is clean, light and simply feminine. Added bonus: solar-proof! Taking a cue from our Australian counterparts currently whizzing through Fashion Week, I'm looking to slip into these light lovelies from (on crazy sale!), , , , , , , and .

This summer I'm going big on big dresses, and by big, I mean loaded with playful prints, eye-popping colors, and big-time twirling capabilities. Take the fun and statement-making (and one and done) dress, above, or these head-turners by , (on sale!), , , , and .

Fact: this season's trendy high-waist bikini provides more coverage. Consequently, my theory is to wear this suit with less of a cover-up. (Evidently, others seem agree with me, above and below!) This new kind of summer staple reveals your suit but still conceals the whole schebang--and as an added bonus, can be worn off the beach too. I'm talking picture-perfect pieces like this wrap top, above (also cute with high waist white jeans, BTW), and the print robe, below. Other amazing options include this blouse, this kimono, this belted shirt, this button-down, and this cotton voile shirt.

I always love wearing/touting my creative, talented friends, but I'm doubly thrilled about the launch of, both pals of mine who teamed up on a twice-as-chic capsule collection. The , above, is equal parts JJ and GP: vibrant yet elegant! Check out and shop the other amazing (exclusive) styles --before they sell out!

These on-sale Dolce & Gabbana slides should solve most summer outfit conundrums!

Considering the hundreds of likes the above post garnered, I'd say this dress is a definite crowd-pleaser! People kept stopping me that day to inquire about its provenance, which is exclusively available . I paired this print-happy frock with these sandals ($29, but not the most comfortable to walk in--just FYI) and this statement-making necklace. What you don't see is my cute daisy-print bucket bag (more is more!) and can't-live-without diamond star earrings. More dresses poised to make my future days: this simple yet sexy , this vibrant , and this lovely lace and floral . Summer, here I come!

This canvas bucket bag is big enough for summer's big plans!
