If you want to take your summer style to new heights this year without matching every other girl at the next party you go to, today you’re in store for a treat. I’ve rounded up five of the best brands to shop this season that are just low-key enough to ensure you’ll be a step ahead of all your friends but cool enough to garner more compliments than you’ll know what to do with. From my favorite hidden gem on Revolve to some newer labels we can thank Instagram for leading us to, you’re going to love these as much as I do—I can almost guarantee it. Simply continue on for the five that made the cut, and of course, to shop them along the way.
