5 finds to up your fashion game from head to toe this summer: from Chanel sunglasses, to Ferragamo shoes, Polo Ralph Lauren cap and a Longines watch
Time your wardrobe enjoyed an upgrade? Needs a little brand-name inspiration perhaps? Accessories to lift a look or a head-turning centrepiece to really seize attention? No problem, read on for Style’s five top fashion picks to make you fashionable from head to toe this summer – and from a day at the beach to a night on the town.
1. Polo Ralph Lauren baseball cap
This wool twill baseball cap (HK$1,590) from Polo Ralph Lauren sports the founder’s first name on the front and a stylish leather strap accent on the back.
2. Chanel sunglasses
This pair of shield sunglasses from Chanel is embellished with one of the label’s signatures: the interlaced leather and gold link chain of its coveted quilted bags. Pack them with a monochrome swimsuit and a little black dress from the brand’s ready-to-wear offerings and you’ll be all set for your upcoming summer break.
3. Alice + Olivia dresses
If you’re looking for an impact dress this summer, Alice + Olivia, the US label helmed by fun-loving designer Stacey Bendet, has got you covered.
Inspired by a fictional character cheekily named Bossbae, the spring/summer 2024 range includes pieces such as the Clyde embellished shift dress, featuring a sequinned flower motif, and the Xia sheer bustier feathered minidress, just the thing for a night out partying.
4. Longines Mini DolceVita watch
With its rectangular case and Roman numerals, the watch is suitable for daywear and glamorous outings, especially if you opt for the diamond-encrusted version.
5. Ferragamo ballerina shoes
The Ferragamo ballerina is one of the Italian shoemaker’s most celebrated creations. Embellished with the signature Vara buckle that gives them a distinctive silhouette, the shoes are practical and elegant in equal measure. This season, the brand unveils a new version of the Vara buckle, engraved with the new Ferragamo logo and still featuring its instantly recognisable grosgrain ribbon. The new models come in pink, black and silver.
- The Longines watch is a model worn by Kate Winslet no less: pick a pink or black strap to have it chime with a pair of the Ferragamo pumps
- Fun-loving designer Stacey Bendet channelled a fictional character, Bossbae, to inspire her new Alice + Olivia dresses – an ideal partner to Chanel’s shield sunglasses
