31 Luxe Reformation and Free People Items Fashion People Will Own This Summer
If you can believe it, we still have an entire month before summer officially begins. However, if you ask me, the season starts as soon as the sun begins to shine and not a second later. I refuse to accept that we should wait until the summer solstice to begin celebrating, so I'm throwing caution to the wind and declaring today the start of my summer season.
Preparing my wardrobe is half the fun of entering a new season, so you can bet I'm officially on the lookout for fresh summer buys. Today I decided to focus my efforts on two of our readers' favorite brands: Reformation and Free People. Both retailers offer a mix of trendy, classic, and luxe pieces, so you really can't go wrong with their entire selections. But if you want some help narrowing it down, you've come to the right place. Keep scrolling to shop my picks.

Up next: four things royals never wear.
Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
