Here's how to pick the best items for this season's wardrobe.
Dressing for summer is a strategy game. You are wearing less clothing to accommodate the heat, which also means less opportunity to get your look right. Having go-to looks for every summer scenario can help set you up for success. Here are 5 suggestions to help you cut corners and still put your best foot forward for the season...
1) Date Night
Sometimes, throwing on a great sport jacket is all it takes to upgrade your day look. Go with a lighter shade of pant for a bolder aesthetic, but keep it relaxed with a trendy sneaker.

Shirt: Zara, $25.99
Pant: Jack & Jones, $95.00

2) Saturday Lax
A monochromatic look creates a great body line while also making a modern fashion statement.

On a chilly night, bright along a classic leather jacket to break up the outfit and stay warm.
