5 Things You Should Be Wearing This Week

1. Sailor Stripes
Can you say ooh la la? From Brigitte Bardot to Coco Chanel, France's most chic have long championed crisp and classic Breton tops. Find out how Halle Berry rocks her stripes with a blazer and score your own nautical look for under $100.

2. Soft Trousers
Breezy and light, silky tapered pants are the perfect spring-to-summer piece. Whether cargo pocketed or loose and pleated, the elegant style is sophisticated enough for day and cool enough for night.

3. Wedge Heels
Sorry stilettos—this season, leg-lengthening, easy-wearing wedges win. Get a boost with a sliver style, freshen up an office look with a pair in patent or play up your pedicure with open-toe sandals.

4. A Print Clutch
Add a punch of color and pattern to your wardrobe with a bold clutch. Go wild with an animal print or branch out with a striking boho design.

5. Layered Chain Necklaces
Amp up a blazer or plain tee with a multi-layered chain necklace. Try piling on a few chains (bonus points for combining different lengths and styles) or get an edgy tangled version even if you're on a shoe-string budget.
