Essential #1: Striped Maxi-Dress—
The ultimate essential for a spring day of shopping or summer music festival, you’ve got to pick up at least one maxi-dress this season...okay, maybe two!
Belted Stripe Maxi Dress, $195, available at Net-A-Porter and Vince, 112 South Robertson Boulevard (at Alden Street); 310-247-8299.
Essential #2: Flat-form Sandals—
Lower than a platform but with the same oomph, we love this season’s flat-form shoe for so many reasons. This UO option looks like a million bucks—but is much more wallet-friendly.

Essential #3: Denim Jacket—
