Life in summer looks good on all of us--but even better with additional sparkle! The eye-catching baubles on these beach babes possess the perfect amount of shimmer: a glint of gold, a pop of color, and loads of happy-go-lucky whimsy. I love Georgia Fowler's rose gold Tiffany & Co Smile necklace, above, and Jen Azoulay's colorful beaded pieces by Eliou (also here!), Dorsey, and cute heart necklace immediately below by Loren Stewart. (The hot zebra print dress in the last pic can be found…

If you're looking for some civility today, turn your attention to Paris, where Fashion Week is underway, and attendees are putting on an elegant and refined show! Lighting up center stage: statement jackets, sophisticated denim, vibrant, sumptuous textures and boots galore. I'd like to import some of these elevated elements into my everyday, in the hopes of making everything else look LESS like, shall we say, a shit show. What say you? How about this Chanel-inspired Sandro jean jacket…

Summer's all about a relaxed look, and for me, a lightweight blazer is my fast track to effortlessly chic. Throw one on with a pair of jeans and a tee, and I am good to go. With shorts and blouse? Sure, why not? I'm telling you a summer blazer adds the perfect amount of polish--and fashion cred--to any outfit. I like these by Mango, Theory (similar to above and below), Frame, Joie, and Tibi.

This off-duty pairing of a navy parka and black skinny jeans is a life saver when you need to look chic in a flash. Now all you need is a cool pair of black low top sneakers.

I identify as a New Yorker (and always will!) but I moonlight as a native Angeleno in my car. I'm know how to get across the 405 during rush hour, am fluent in yellow-curb restrictions--and can get dressed for a black tie in the back seat. All of which may explain my deep appreciation for Blanca Miro Scrimieri's aptitude for "car-fit" selfies. Somehow she makes her outfits and sitting in her car look thoroughly glamorous--a skill I have to yet to learn! At least I can sport some of the chic…
