Walk into our NYC office on any given day this summer, and you'll spot editors wearing at least one of the following items: beaded jewelry, Bermuda shorts, rope sandals, and/or a breezy nap-style dress. Clearly, our dress code leans far from corporate, but it gives us the chance to test out new trends and experiment with our personal style on the weekdays. This month, we've had a few matching moments at the water cooler, so I thought I'd round up the pieces editors are actually buying and styling this season. Included are separates and accessories from Banana Republic, Madewell, Free People, Adidas, and more. So if you want to see the NYC editor-approved shopping list for the month, keep reading.
