Not only is this one of my go-to styling tricks for summer—wearing all-white clothes with black accessories—but these are also pretty much all my favorite wardrobe basics. The white tank and pants are so easy to style and versatile, and the belt, sandals, and bag are some of the accessories I find myself reaching for most often lately.

You may already know that I’m on a crochet kick, but this skirt is actually a favorite from last summer that I’m even more excited to wear again this year. I love my silver version, but you’ll see if you click below that it also comes in a slightly more neutral metallic gold that I am constantly trying to stop myself from buying as well. Here, I styled it with a simple blue button-down, but I love wearing it with a white tank as well.

Two things I love are tailored basics and matching sets, so when I received this outfit to wear for an event, I never wanted to take it off. I found myself wearing it out to dinner constantly over the following weeks and still now. I wear the pieces as a set but also separately. Since they are navy as opposed to black, they feel really elevated and spring ready when styled with white. The jacket pairs so well with white trousers, and I love the navy trousers with a white shirt or tank.

I need to start by saying that, sadly, this exact High Sport knit vest is nearly sold out. However, what really matters here is the outfit combo I have been living in. You can get the look with a similar sleeveless sweater from J.Crew that I found below along with my go-to trousers. Here, I’m wearing it with my Gucci Jackie bag that I recently added a little bag charm to and the same A.Emery sandals as above, but this outfit can easily be dressed up by swapping in heels.

I got to borrow this Posse set for a try-on and loved it so much I ended up buying it. You may remember it as one of Sofia Richie Grainge’s wedding-weekend outfits, and while you’d think we’d be over it two years later, it very much still lands. It’s so easy to wear and flattering, and I’m considering buying it in black too.
