I love contributing to Who What Wear—the online publication that covers everything from the latest trends to real-life, street-style fashion. It’s one of my daily reads and a source of style inspiration. So, a couple of weeks ago, Bobby Schuessler, the Shopping and Marketing Director at Who What Wear, reached out and asked me to highlight the summer basics I rely on to elevate my wardrobe, especially for June. I immediately said yes (and had a list ready to go!). When it comes to summer basics, I like to keep things simple, wearable, chic, and pulled together.
Below are a few of the basics I shared with Bobby. These pieces work hard in my wardrobe and are perfect for mixing and matching to make many outfits. If you’d like to read the WhoWhatWear article, tap here.
Maxi Dress
A maxi dress is a summer basic that elevates any wardrobe. It’s versatile enough to dress up or down—and makes a great travel piece, too.
