I bought the above green pleated Asos cutie before it sold out a few months ago and have had it in constant rotation ever since. (I recently wore it in , unbuttoned over a bikini.) Fortunately, just re-issued the dress in white, which, of course, I snapped up pronto! It's bound to go fast...

Major news, people: my "Jack" dress is currently gracing the pages of Harper's Bazaar June/July issue (as part of its Jet Set capsule collection)--and it's also available for purchase on . Woo hoo! I'll be wearing this super cute tassel-trimmed dress everywhere this summer, from Malibu to Montauk and even downtown Manhattan. It's lined with shorts, so I can really run around easily. The bell sleeves I like to push up during the day, and when it's really hot, I skip the belt for a more breezy look. It's truly the definition of effortlessly chic! Get one before it goes!

I view it as a virtual peek into our fashion future, and as far as I can tell, it's all about a long dress, AKA, "the midaxi."

My friend Molly made a big style statement with these crochet earrings at dinner last night.

At Cecconi's in South Beach on Friday night, I witnessed major fashion heat, with dresses up to here and plunging necklines down to there. This sexy hot pink dress would have fit right in!

Recently, a friend kindly asked me to join her for a few days of epic Caribbean R&R. The invitation also came with one special request: could I please bring an extra suitcase full of pretty dress loaners for her? I happily obliged, focusing on pieces that can be worn in a variety of ways (see pic above). Here are some of my faves from (above, also this tie-it-up ), (it's reversible!), (sandals to stilettos), (one-shoulder or strapless), (wrap dress meets swimsuit cover-up), this beach to street kimono, and this blouse/dress.

Last summer, it was all about the one-shoulder dress. This season both shoulders come out to play! The strapless dress, formerly reserved for nighttime festivities, are more than ever sunshine-ready, particularly these from , , , , and .

Frills and ties, oh my! The deep V in the back is the (most romantic) finishing touch.
