Smart shopping for the season will help you save money and time. I’d start with shopping in your own closet first. If you can find favorite pieces that will work again, why not pull them out?

1. Short Sleeve Jackets- We all have a short sleeve jacket in our closets, this is not a new trend but a timeless shape that returns every few season. If you don’t, check out Saks for a great selection.
2. Aggressive Shoes- Black, embellished, geometric. Think dominatrix. Win a fabulous pair of wedges from Joie at The Shoe Goddess site!
3. Oversize Jewelry- The bolder the better when it comes to jewels this season. Pull out the bling and let it rock. Check out the fabulous selections at Net-a-porter.com here!
4. Relaxed Cropped pants- This is an easy look to pull off for all body types. Even your boyfriend’s pants rolled up will work but I love this pair of Mara Hoffman Silk Cropped Pants
.
5. Slouchy Bag- Hobos are back and there are many styles and colors to choose from. I like a bright color for the summer– check Bag Snob for the latest hobo bags!
6. Romantic Blouse- Will top off a pair of jeans or slouchy cropped pants beautifully. There are many to choose from including this gorgeous Elizabeth and James Tokyo Top
.
7. Brighter Lips- If nothing else, buy a bright lip gloss to update your look! YSL Pur gloss has many great shades for the season.
