5 Pieces to Glam-Up Your Summer
Here at GL we’re all about making a statement, and this season’s trends dare you to stand out in a crowd. From highlighter hues to animal print accents, the bolder the better!
We checked out the goods and broke it down to give you 5 must-haves that will add instant glam to your summer style.
#1: The Shoulder Bag
Shoulder bags are the easiest way to instantly update your look. Drape across your body for a relaxed, hands-free style or wear over one shoulder for a classy touch. Choose an unexpected color to accent an all-black ensemble or add contrast to an already colorful outfit.

#2: The Statement Shoe
This season, step out in funky footwear in a fun but neutral color. Look for uniquely shaped heels, studded straps and braided detailing. Perf for any sundress and would look just as glam with distressed denim shorts.

# 4: The Romper
Stomp around town in our fave high-fashion look – the romper. Add gladiator flats, a thick metallic belt and an oversized bag for a glamorous daytime look. Or sport strappy heels, big dangling earrings and a fab clutch for a night on the town.

#5 Anything animal print
Whether you snap up a wild monokini or safari-inspired sunnies, a splash of animal print ups your star quality. Right now, leopard feels spot-on, but zebra or cheetah would be cute, too!
