I'm an Editorial Director, and I'll Be Wearing These 5 Pieces All Summer Long
As the editorial director of Who What Wear, I am responsible for a variety of things. One of my favorites, however, includes supporting and gushing over Who What Wear Collection. Over the years, I have become quite picky when it comes to what I buy, but the following items have quickly become my go-tos, and summer has only just begun. I like to keep my seasonal wardrobe down to a tight edit and while the 5 pieces below aren't necessarily all-encompassing in terms of a well-rounded summer wardrobe, they are the pieces I plan on wearing on repeat.
Here, you will find my selection of pieces I plan on living in this summer, from dresses to tops to matching sets that will give me multiple outfits. At price points that will make you smile and quality that will have your jaw dropped, I have never been so excited to share with you my must-have picks for summer 2022 (and then some).
1. Maxi Dresses
2. Short Dresses
This color will grant you so many compliments.
