The roughness of denim combined with the femininity of sheer lace create a beautiful pairing. This blogger proved that in a denim overall dress layered over a sheer, lace, ruffle-sleeved top. Not too girly. Not too tough. That's a middle ground we can all agree on.

We're seriously loving this look from Nicole Warne's Instagram. The best part about maximalism (the opposite of normcore) is that even with this busy print, a pair of bold tassel earrings compliment the look rather than complicate it. To add even more detail, she added a basket beach tote with dangling poms. More is more.

Brooke Testoni brought her look from Hamptons party guest to Sunday stroll with a wraparound blouse, chunky belt and creeper sneakers.
