Wearing white is a warm weather wardrobe nonnegotiable—and in this case, Wardrobe.NYC’s summery suit vest is the chicest choice of all. Styling-wise, wear with the brand’s matching tailored trousers and fashion flip-flops from Mango. The Toteme T-lock handbag is finally back in stock, so get it while it’s hot!
The Workwear Wardrobe With a Summer Wedge Sandal
There’s no one answer to the daily question of what to wear to work during the summer season. Let this suit vest from Remain Birger Christensen be your answer. For a depth of formality, style with statement summer wedges from Reformation and Bottega Veneta earrings.
The Classic Black Suit Vest With a Metallic Mary Jane
Sometimes, you just can’t beat the basics. Case in point: Rag & Bone’s classic black suit vest. Keep the style staple up-to-date with The Frankie Shop’s maxi skirt and metallic Mary Janes from Le Monde Beryl.
The Street Style Sensation With a Pajama-Like Pant
If the suit vest is summer’s most wanted item, then Attersee’s sculpted version is the one to shop. Style with flowy, billowing pants from Toteme and a pair of sleek, suede sandals from St. Agni. Eilaf’s basket bag makes the entire ensemble feel sweet like summer.
The Asymmetrical Style With a Coordinating Cargo Pant
The Frankie Shop’s asymmetrical Maesa suit vest takes a contemporary twist on the classics. To go alongside the elevated essential, style it with the brand’s matching cargo pants and simple slide sandals from Toteme. Meanwhile, Tory Burch’s Ella raffia tote is the chicest carryall of them all.
The Pinstripe Pick With a Denim Midiskirt
This summer, we’re styling two top trends in one: Rag & Bone’s pinstripe suit vest atop a denim midiskirt from Khaite. Accessory-wise, The Row’s Park tote and an off-white pair of Birkenstocks are a must-have, while statement sunnies from Aire are also encouraged.
The Elongated Essential With a Tailored Bermuda Short
No chic city outfit is complete without Theory’s ivory suit vest. Continue the tailoring theme and style with a pair of Bermuda shorts by Nili Lotan. Sleek black sandals from Tkees, a Janessa Leone sun hat, and pearl earrings from Agmes also belong in this summery suit vest outfit.
