We’ve never been ones to abide by the only wear white after Memorial Day “rule”, but come Memorial Day weekend, there is still certainly an exciting sartorial shift in the way we dress.

Mostly, poolside attire, pieces to get a way in and items to wear while absorbing the sun in the great outdoors, and of course, all of the bright, bold and brilliant jewelry that punctuates each summer-ready look.

Whether you’re off to an exotic locale or planning to attend a casual backyard BBQ, consider these looks and stunning accessories when finalizing your wardrobe selection.

Classic gold pieces anchor vibrant summer hues.

Part nautical, part preppy, all elegance. Layer on a chic stack of bangles with an off the shoulder blouse.

Perfect for any beach house plans or seaside getaways.

White palazzo pants and espadrilles, punctuated by gorgeous drop earrings, make for the perfect long weekend look.

Your game and style is always more dazzling with diamonds.
