The Look: Gentlemen

Work : Two-button suits are definitely the fashion for this summer. This piece is a good pick because it can be dressed up or worn more casually, perhaps unbuttoned over a dress shirt and v-neck sweater. It also gives a slimmer, more tailored look that is sure to catch the ladies' eyes and prove that less is truly more.

Items : Two-button suit with a basic white or lightly patterned dress shirt

The Finishing Touch : Untraditional cuff links, "skinny" ties, and patterned dress socks.

Tips : Keep it simple - minimalism is key.

Play : Nautical themes are back and stronger than ever this summer. The emphasis on navy blue and white gives a crisp summer look. The Outlander look is also a good option this season because it makes use of a mixture of military and safari themes. Lightweight hoodies and jackets with cargo pockets in navy blue, khaki, or military green will keep things warm during the cool summer nights.

The Basics : "All-over print" T-shirts, cargo shorts, jeans with back-buttoned pockets, knit polos, and short-sleeve button down shirts.

The Finishing Touch : Exotic jewelry, thin bohemian scarves, classic aviator shades, and shemaghs.

Tips : Avoid too much clothing. Focus more on the accessories to help achieve the look. NO novelty T-shirts!

The Look: Ladies

Work : European tailoring in both jackets and skirts is sure to accentuate a woman's figure and keep plenty heads turning. Having a higher waist on dresses, skirts, and trousers will give off a flair of femininity. Light, airy fabrics like linen and satin will help to soften the tone and keep it cool during the hot summer months.

Items : Trouser and skirts tailored at the waist, empire-line dresses, short cut jackets, and striped and floral patterned blouses.

Finishing Touch : Wide belts, headscarves, and bows.

Tips : Be light on the accessories. Let the cut of the clothing as well as pattern of the fabric carry the look.

Play : Urban, chic elegance are the key component for heating up all things fashion this summer. Vibrant, intense colors will be the focal point this season, making sure they are offset with more subtle hues. Plunging necklines, sequins and satin fabrics are a must.

Items : Tailored shirts, pleated shorts or trousers, button-up dresses, and white pants.

The Finishing Touch : Shades, Oxford tote bag, suspenders, and gold accent belts.
