Nutmeg beige robe from Fe Noel

Everything about this garment is perfection- from the color palette to the pattern, and the draping to the material. A robe like this can be worn outside the house, too- it works seamlessly to layer over the rest of your look. We’re pretty much obsessed with this piece. You need to get your hands on one!

Rust puff sleeve bodysuit from Fe Noel

We love a puffy sleeve for summer, and the semi-sheer material balances out the overall sleeve length. Plus, the bright rust tone just screams “summer.”

What’s a summer wardrobe without a jumpsuit? Everyone is in the market for this piece, and we’ve found the perfect option. Complete with vibrant, warm colors, tortoiseshell buttons, a leg slit, asymmetry, ruffles, and detailed with patterned straps- we literally couldn’t ask for more. Obsessed is an understatement.

Wrap the waist crop top from Stella Nolasco

ops that wrap at the waist are all the rage right now, and for good reason. They’re ultra-flattering on your waistline, and we love how this fuchsia one spices things up even further. Not only does the color command the attention of a room, but its unique construction is simply stunning. We’re extra partial to the feathered, structured neckline of this one!

Roja midi skirt from Stella Nolasco

Not sure what to wear with the wrap the waist crop top in fuchsia? The roja midi skirt is your answer. It perfectly balances its matching top, while remaining sufficient on its own. Together, the set is great for a wedding or other formal event, but the skirt could definitely be dressed down, too.

Bastille top Blanche from Catherine Quin

Another summer wardrobe must is that of a white tank. You don’t want anything too simple or boring though, which is why the bastille top is our pick. It’s classic enough to be worn in a multitude of ways, but definitely stands out thanks to the feathered detailing.
