1. Vest Tops

"Vest tops are the definition of easy and effortless while still reading totally professional cool. I love pairing them with a little juxtaposition—think baggy jorts and a layered chain necklace—for that mix of polish and edge my clients can't get enough of."

2. Netted Mesh Shoes

"From ballet flats to kitten heels, this subtly nakey shoe trend is everywhere. It gives that barely-there effect that feels fresh for summer but still sleek enough to wear with trousers and tailoring into fall."

3. Cuff Bracelets Bangles

"This is one of my favorite comebacks of the season. Clients are having so much fun mixing metals and materials—stacking a bold silver cuff with a gold bangle or even pairing a resin style with fine jewelry for that high-low, styled-but-effortless feel."

4. Slouchy Totes

"Boho is officially back, and the slouchy tote is the hero bag of the moment. It’s spacious, comfy to carry, and my favorite recommendation is always a rich brown suede—it looks just as chic with gauzy summer dresses as it does with structured fall coats."— Vanessa Powell

5. Retro Prints

"From gingham to polka dots, sweet retro-inspired prints are seeing a huge resurgence right now. They’ve been such a fun way to bring personality into closets and always make an outfit feel a little more playful."— Vanessa Powell
