We know, the bikini is your go-to, but let us present an alternative: the one-piece. Once considered too costumey or covered-up, the new one-piece is anything but retro. With modern prints and silhouettes offered from the likes of Mara Hoffman, Herve Leger, Cynthia Rowley, and Marc by Marc Jacobs, there's a suit for every day of your vacation. Go ahead and splash around; we've got you covered.

With it being Friday, we've naturally got the weekend on our brains, and today we're looking to Jessica Biel on how to walk our pups in style. The actress ditched the usual dog-walking gear (we're looking at you, sweats) and instead was chic and sporty in an AllSaints striped sweatshirt ($110) over a AllSaints striped tank dress ($68). For comfort, she added a pair of Nike Dunk Sky Hi sneakers, and for extra edge, a black leather jacket. Although skirts and sneakers aren't the most obvious pairing, that's precisely what we love so much about Jessica's latest outfit — she tried the unexpected and it worked. So follow her lead by shopping similar pieces below.

Whether it's the Hamptons, Napa Valley, or the Great Smoky Mountains, Summer is all about making those sweet getaways for a little rest and relaxation. To help you get on your stylish way, we rounded up the best travel bags that score high on fashion and function. Our top choices include modern black and white pairings from Saint Laurent and Kate Spade, classically chic options from Gucci and Coach, and bohemian wares from Tory Burch and Free people. Find your perfect weekend companion right now.

There's no time like the present to clock into work in style with our Summer (work)shop. To help you master the art of work chic, brands like Diane von Furstenberg, Theory, and J.Crew are supplying us with an array of polished sheath dresses, airy printed blouses, and smart blazers. So give your tried-and-true black blazer a break and swap it out with a bright white or printed rendition. Also, don't forget to finish off your power ensemble with sleek accessories and refined pumps.

The news that Banana Republic was teaming up with Milly for a capsule collection (and just in time for Summer!) was music to our ears. Now that we've spotted some familiar faces out and about wearing the line, we're only getting more excited to shop once items hit stores and the web next Thursday, May 30. Zoe Saldana's retro-inspired dress and Olivia Palermo's elephant-print shorts will both be available for purchase (retailing at $150 and $55, respectively), making it easy to copy both summery, office-ready looks.
