“I think gladiator sandals are a bit outdated at this point, and I love wearing simple two-strap sandals instead. They’re much sleeker, and as a bonus, are way easier to slide on and off.” — Erin Fitzpatrick, senior news editor

“I never got on board with the flip-flop craze that took over last year, but this summer, I’ll be adding sleek heeled versions into my closet.” — Kristen Nichols, managing editor

“This summer, I’m letting go of the prairie-top trend. I wore it so much last year that I kind of just tired myself out. Instead, I’m leaning into a much more versatile and practical trend—baby tanks. These are reminiscent of the ’90s and luckily can be really cheap.” — Lauren Eggertsen, fashion editor

“I’m saying sayonara to my tiny sunglasses and instead opting for trending shield sunglasses to disguise my under-eye bags in style!” — Judith Jones, market editor

“I never thought I’d say this, but I think I’m finally ready to put my short shorts on the back burner in favor or longer styles. From bike shorts to long denim shorts to tailored pairs, I’m all in.” — Nicole Akhtarzad, market editor

“I’m letting go of my ultra-short shorts in favor of the rising denim Bermuda shorts trend. I’ll be snapping up a looser-fitting ’90s fit short this summer, which I think is such a chicer alternative to the teeny-tiny denim cutoffs that reigned for years.” — Anna LaPlaca, assistant editor

“It’s been a long time coming, but I’m officially over short denim cutoffs. Longer shorts and Bermuda lengths look much more forward this summer.” — Allyson Payer, editor
