Nail Art: The hottest thing for your hands this summer!
Stripes or pop art are both fun designs for this season. Low-maintenance nail styles are in and there are so many designs to choose from and have fun with, including colorful feathers on the tip of the nail or black lace over a beautiful purple pearl polish.

Maxi Dress: The Maxi dress is very functional this season.
The maxi is great for weddings, graduations, lunch out with the girls or a swimsuit coverup. The jumpsuit has made a comeback, too, from the early 1980s. You’ll see the jumpsuit as a short suit or the full-on jumpsuit. Other summer trends are cropped pants in fun and funky colors, leggings under an empire waist and cute sundresses.

Your Hair: Ponytails are hot for this hot summer.
And there are so many different tail styles to choose from, including the full ponytail, the bouffant and the ponytail swept sideways. Messy, wrapped or mile-high ponytails are also fun summer looks for any event. Ask your hair stylist what look is best for you.

Accessories
Floral heels and wedges in bright colors are great with the Maxi dress, jumpsuit or sundress. And jeweled sandals look fabulous with everything! Retro-inspired peep-toed shoes in gold or silver metallic provide a striking look in footwear this season. Peep-toed shoes come in other great colors and all are a hit this year for parties, work or play. As with shoes, handbags in python colors such as violet, sunflower, iris, antique gold, smoke and citrus are a great look for the clutch or big shoulder bag for the summer! Brightly colored clutches also look great for every occasion for this season.
