Fashion Designer Styling Tips

Tibi is one of our favorite American contemporary lines, not least because designer Amy Smilovic always styles her collections — on the runway and in her lookbooks — in a way that has us coveting the entire look that very second. She has a knack for combining unexpected elements and colors that make an outfit look totally amazing. That's why we turned to her for tips on how to wear key pre-Fall pieces now, when it's hot, and later, when it cools down. We chose five irresistible pieces from Tibi's latest collection, and Amy showed us exactly how she would wear it. Click through to see her spot-on styling tips, and shop her picks to get the designer-approved look right now. And don't miss Amy's five essentials for getting through those transitional weather days when you just can't decide what to wear.
