SUMMER FAVES FROM Avec les Filles

Newburyport, MA

With summer now in full swing and lots of events left on your calendar, you need go-to pieces to carry you through. Avec les Filles has got them all. From elevated basics to versatile styles, I've been stocking up on pretty pieces from this chic yet approachable brand all season. Is there anything better than uncomplicated looks that make getting dressed a cinch? Not really. 

While each Avec les Filles piece feels accessibly chic, I also love the retro details they add to make each piece one-of-a-kind. 

Not your basic white summer dress, the Tiered Midi Dress makes accessorizing super simple. The standout ruffle sleeves and embroidery are really enough to make a statement all on their own. So for dinner with friends, I just pulled my hair back into a bun, threw on some summery statement earrings, slip on sandals—and though it was an effortless look, I got lots of compliments.

For an easy day-to-night outfit, you can't go wrong with the Tiered Linen-Blend Mini Dress! The belted waistline is really flattering and I love I can throw it on and not have to think about how to style it too much. Just pair it with some chunky heels and you've got a look that's casual yet flirty.

If the weather in your world is anything like it's been here in New England lately, a cute raincoat is also a must-have. Simple, stylish, and practical, the Oversized Nylon Rain Anorak is a cool (and way too necessary) addition to any summer look. My favorite part is the bold, shiny interior. It'll give your outfit an unexpected pop. I paired it with sneakers, leggings, and a sweater for my super casual rainy-filled walk.
