Here's how we did it:
1. It doesn't get any cooler than a cardigan right now. Seriously—every store has them this spring. The look is disheveled, so don't fasten every button.
2. We're not saying you need to abandon denim. Just think beyond it. Our favorite alternative right now? Bold chinos that pop with color.
3. Boat shoes are back. This all-black pair is built for the street, not the dock.
