There’s something that’s just so refreshing about the color teal. We love its effortless chic - and want an excuse to wear it more often. Forever 21 solved our teal problem by transforming it into handbag form. Can’t you just see this satchel paired with a blood orange top?
$21.80 at Forever 21.

Style tip? Want the chicness of a boot and the flexibility of a regular shoe? Ankle boots to the rescue! You can spice up a traditional pencil skirt and blouse with the edginess of an ankle boot.

Style tip? If there’s one thing we love, it’s pockets on dresses. Pockets on dresses are as pretty as they are practical. Wear your pockets on a full, feminine skirt, as seeen at Cynthia Steffe, Oscar de la Renta, and Narciso Rodriguez.

Style tip? Headbands have been around for a couple of seasons now. But this season’s headband is more embellished, more ornate. Pair this headband with something equally floaty and feminine.

Style tip? Gingham doesn’t have to be tiny, as it’s traditionally found. Lacoste and Trovata both expanded the size of the gingham pattern for a bold, graphic effect. Generally, the taller you are, the more oversized of a pattern you can wear - but even the giant gingham print at Trovata can be worn by most.
