1/ CRÊPE DE CHINE MERMAID GOWN
This Eliza J Print gown is made for the classic outdoor dinner party this season. With cerulean brocade print, it is a refreshing take on a flattering, curve-celebrating classic mermaid silhouette that’s sure to turn heads. The elegant detailing from a bateau neckline and cap sleeves maintain the gown’s timeless appeal, and will certainly help you make an entrance on those hot summer nights. Nordstrom $178
2/ ROSE DE GRASSE PARFUM, 1.7 OZ.
There’s no need to leave the sweet aromas of your garden flowers behind. Take them with you wherever you go with the latest fragrance by AERIN Beauty. The scent is a fusion of roses that includes the hundred- petaled Rose Centifolia, hand-picked in Grasse, the French capital of perfumery since the 16th century. Neiman Marcus $375
3/ PINKED ROSE HAT
Look the part for those summer afternoon tea parties. Kate Spade’s pinked rose hat, part of the Madison Ave. collection, is made with textured floral appliques that are made in small batches giving each hat a unique touch. Pink hats aren’t for everyone, but be bold this summer and add this piece to your wardrobe. Kate Spade $248
