When we're on the brink of a new season like summer, I'm always thinking about what my approach will be for getting dressed and which items I'll be adding to my shopping list. Though I study the runway trends and keep a close eye on all of the newness arriving on the market at my favorite brands and retailers, I always wish I could get an inside peek at what fashion insiders are ordering and the new pieces sitting in their closets.

Their shortlists are stocked with everything from directional, colorful flats and fresh takes on denim to going-out bras and pretty cotton dresses.

What is your approach to fashion this summer?

"Easy, everyday comfort with a fashion twist. Comfortable fashion with a practical sensibility is how I plan to dress this summer. I want pieces that are timeless but have a nod to this new fashion dawn of being excited to dress up again. I'll be opting for neutrals, that I know I can come back to next summer and the summer after that."
