This summer's predicted to be a scorcher so in order to stay cool and look refreshed this season, lets keep a neutral palette.  Living on the east coast -- we know we need to beat the heat, as well as the humidity.  One of this season's biggest trends are natural shades.  You can layer khakis over tans, mix it up with a little beige and eggshell white, and throw in a little light pink or yellow for a complete cool look.  And of course, being a fan of brights, you can most definitely pair neutrals with any hot pink, lime green or turquoise.  Food for thought: Stay away from darks !!  You're trying to ditch the heat & they will only draw the sun in your direction!

Classic pieces that ALWAYS work:  shorts, blouses, mini skirts, and cardigans (for summer nights).

Trendy pieces to experiment with: harem pants and military vests.  However you do it, own the look!

ps; Keep accessories minimal. No need to be weighed down with gaudy cuffs and huge bangles.  Try ultra feminine gold or silver jewelry, go for smaller pieces with this look.
