Navy Blazer
On Sattler: Veronica Beard blazer
"A navy blazer may be the most iconic classic wardrobe staple of all time." — Sattler
Striped T-Shirt
On Sattler: Amour Vert tee
"Inspired by fashionable French women, a striped top is my favorite summer closest essential." — Sattler
Linen Shorts
On Sattler: Veronica Beard shorts
"Something linen is the calling card for almost every popular coastal-grandmother look. A pair of relaxed or tailored linen shorts serve a multitude of uses in this classic fashion capsule. Style classic linen shorts sporty or back to a blazer for work." — Sattler
Straight-Leg Jeans
On Sattler: Frame jeans
"High-rise tapered jeans are dominating classic denim trends. Take my jean quiz to find the best fit for your body type. Barrel-leg jeans are big right now. If you want to keep with the classics, go for a non-stretch straight-leg style like classic Levi's or celebrity-favorite Parker from Agolde." — Sattler
Bouclé/Tweed Jacket
On Sattler: J.Crew jacket
"A cropped silhouette and dainty details are the signatures of this versatile, lightweight layer. A preppy pop of color looks great with this classic capsule." — Sattler
Striped Dress
On Sattler: Veronica Beard dress
"Make the most of the solid staples you own by adding a neutral-print striped dress." — Sattler
Camp Shirt
On Sattler: Lucky Brand shirt
"This version of the infamous button-down will work on repeat with all the summer outfits in this capsule. A cropped or shrunken silhouette is the most modern." — Sattler
White Jeans
On Sattler: Fidelity jeans
"White jeans are a wardrobe staple. You'll never regret having more than one style that flatters your figure. For this capsule, I'm focused on a beachy wide-leg, cropped silhouette that vibes well with the other shapes and silhouettes on this checklist." — Sattler
Polo Shirt
On Sattler: Banana Republic polo
"A polo shirt paired with linen shorts or white jeans will keep you comfortable and on-trend. There are plenty of polos to pick from right now." — Sattler
Woven Accessories
On Sattler: Bottega Veneta sandals
"You probably snatched up a cool, colorful woven summer bag when you were shopping my resort casual capsule wardrobe. Complete this classic fashion capsule with traditional woven shoes and braided accessories in rich neutrals like brown and cognac." — Sattler
