With so many wedges out there, choosing just one or two pairs for summer seems fairly unreasonable. What does seem reasonable: opting for at least one pair in a bright, fearless hue that celebrates the season in style. With their brazen orange pattern, these fit the bill nicely. The open toe allows you to show off an equally bright pedicure, and the ankle strap ensures surprising comfort throughout the day. Also in black and navy.$34.94 at dsw.com

You’ve got to hand it to mark: they really do dream up the most magnificent collaborations. The latest is with luxury handbag designer Michelle Vale, whose Entrechat 3-in-1 Convertible Bag is a major celebrity favorite. Vale created a virtual doppelganger for mark - a limited-edition lovely that looks just as fabulous as its inspiration but costs a mere fraction of the high-end price. This versatile bag goes from work to play with ease, and it can be worn as a crossbody, shoulder bag or clutch. So chic - and no one will know just how little you paid for it!
A mixed-print dress can be a tricky thing to pull off, but this is one piece that does all the work for you. With its flared floral skirt and contrasting striped top, it’s about as summery as a dress can be - and so much fun, too. Perfect for those sultry summer days that call for bare skin and pulled back hair, this comfortable dress features a belted waist and an elasticized back for an ideal fit.
Possibly one of the season’s most perfect tops, this pretty blouse is etched with a vibrant botanical print and finished with a drawstring at the waist. It’s at once dressy and casual, with a versatility that makes it chic with everything from laid-back shorts to polished pencil skirts. Also in white.
With its unique materials, this colorful bracelet is a definite standout. It’s made with a variety of multicolored faceted crystals, all suspended by sturdy iron hooked onto a lush green fabric cord. It’s bright, uplifting and the ideal finishing touch for any of your warm weather looks. And so affordable, too!
