Though it may seem implausible and laughable now, I assure you sandal weather will be upon us before we know it. As I’m sitting in this café with a scarf around my neck the size of Argentina and boots as heavy as Lupita’s pearl dress at the Oscars last night, I can’t help but wander into a dream world called summer. Beaches, Gladiator sandals and outdoor brunching, oh my!
Here are some spring/summer trending essentials that every girl should have in their wardrobe:
1.
Matching skirt/top set by Shiruetto.
The crop top game is still going strong, people. This set gives the crop top a tasteful and modern update with the whole business-in-the-front, party-in-the-back scenario and Jacquard texture.
2.
Nothing says Hello, spring like a crisp, clean white cotton collared shirtdress. Bonus: this one has a tie in front giving it a whimsical touch.

When in doubt, throw on a maxi dress. This however, is no ordinary maxi dress. It's draping gives it a laidback vibe, while the red embroidery makes it really stand out. This can be worn with a leather jacket, belted or tied up at the bottom just to give you a few ideas.

These pants are amazing in so many ways. They can be treated like jeans (because of the color), they can be worn with virtually any shoe (pump, flatform, sneaker, really, ANY SHOE) and they're half elastic for when you want to make that Shake Shack burger a double.

Talk about an investment piece! This jumpsuit by Yigal Azrouel's diffusion line, Cut 25 will carry you through until the first snow! Wear this with heels and a blazer to the office, with sandals and a fedora to brunch and when the weather begins its cold betrayal, with a turtleneck underneath and a pair of Chelsea booties.

If you need a little denim pick-me-up, now is the time to treat yo self. Though skinny jeans are considered a classic at this point, wide leg jeans are really the jeans du moment. These are lightweight and made out of 98% cotton and that 2% spandex that saves so many of us every time.

Coats are to winter what vests are to spring. This vest however is the best of both worlds. It's still a vest but has the length of a below-the-knee coat, thus making it ideal for light layering and if you really feel daring, belt it!
