I'm a fairly casual dresser to begin with, but come summer, I want to be as comfortable (and cute) as possible. Between the heat, nonstop travel, and time spent by water, I need my summer wardrobe to be anything but fussy. I want a collection I can mix and match on vacation, wear to the beach in style, and stay cool in during a humid NYC summer. Matching sets, minidresses, beaded jewelry, and stylish sandals come to mind first, and Free People has mastered them. Pictured above, I'm wearing the Perfect Tones Set, which I've already worn several ways. The style and versatility of the following products make them the perfect wardrobe investments this season.
Psst: This also comes in eight additional colors.
Arguably the cutest crochet bag I've seen to date.
Belly chains are my favorite accessory trend of the summer. I double wrapped mine and wore it as a necklace.

This is the exact set I want to throw on when running errands or hanging out at the beach this summer.
