When we were seven wearing knotted T-shirts, we totally wanted all of our dance-class leotards to look like this R/H situation. —erica

Next Level: Rash Guards

Just because we don’t surf doesn’t mean we don’t ogle wave-riding attire. Something we’ve noticed? Rash guards have gotten so freaking stylin’. Here, four versions that prove our point. —erica
LEVEL I: As approachable as a stripe-y tee! And how hot’s the zipper up the front of this Pret-a-Surf number?
LEVEL II: This Eberjey creation can totally hang with guy who’d respond to broseph.
LEVEL III: So GRAPHIC and cool—Basta really knows what’s up. It also pairs so well with a black bikini.
LEVEL IV: Who says you can’t be girly and badass at once? Certainly not Zimmermann.

In Character: Donna Martin



The entire first season of Beverly Hills, 90210, Donna Martin spoke about seven words. But the outfits she wore traipsing down the halls of West Beverly Hills High School, bopping around the beach, and hanging out the top of a convertible did plenty to distract from that. Three trademarks of look. —erica

Shoshanna’s daisy bikini—because the flower was kind of her calling card.

A stripe-y Minkpink crop top that got David Silver outta that DJ booth.

A Rebecca Taylor prom dress—key: strapless—that went well with limo champagne and some is-Donna-gonna-graduate?! dramz.

Next Level: B&W Gingham

Wearing gingham doesn’t mean looking like a picnic blanket—especially when you go all black and white. Here’s how to play it cool. —erica
LEVEL I: Doesn’t get much easier than this loose Steven Alan top. Toss on some chunky gold jewelry to jazz it up.
LEVEL II: Friends & Associates thinks you need a fresh alternative to a denim mini. We’re with them.
LEVEL III: Some major peplum action, to really amp up your weekend look, from Roseanna.
LEVEL IV: Totally fair if you thought you’d never wear a tankini again—but this Pret-a-Surf situation has the power to change your mind.

Next Level: Floral Swimwear

Flowers like water. So here’s a chance—or four!—to give them what they want. —erica
LEVEL I: There’s something so Malibu Sands Beach Club about this Pret-a-Surf number—and isn’t that always the goal?
LEVEL II: It’s a white bikini—without any of the stress. Thanks, We Are Handsome.
LEVEL III: Oof, is the high waist on this Giejo combo killer.
LEVEL IV: Not the easiest thing to pull off, no. But if you can rock this Zimmermann situation, you’ll be queen of the poolside scene.

Next Level: Cats

All of a sudden, it’s totally cool to embrace your inner cat lady. These are our four fave ways to get kitty happy. —erica
LEVEL I: Wrapped around your neck, the meow motif of the Leah Goren scarf is distorted in a super-cool way.
LEVEL II: So ladylike and grown-up! 10 Crosby by Derek Lam makes a white cat print look crazy-easy to pull off.
LEVEL III: If anyone tries to talk smack on your Pretty Snake sweater, sic one of these 11 kitties on them.
LEVEL IV: Wildfox: Never afraid to go there. Here, an update on the already-challenging white swimsuit that happens to be undeniably rad.
