If you’re not a summer-hater who wears black all the time and would rather revel in the blazing sunshine with a bright, cheerful dress, consider this halter by Apiece Apart. Made from raw cotton, it’s breezy and lightweight — exactly what you need for this time of year. Plus, the little details like the raw-edge neckline and chunky fabric give it an extra-special touch. Try it with slip-on sandals and a cross-body bag to add texture, like this faux-python-leather one by vegan-friendly brand Freedom of Animals. And if you really want to get fancy with the styling, you can throw matching cuffs on both wrists.
