Need an Instant Summer Style Update? 4 Trends to Grab Now

Unless you have a budget set aside for every season, you're probably wondering if there are just a couple of easy style updates you can make to kick off summer. Well we were thinking the same thing. So we scoured the internet, and a few catalogs and (gasp!) brick and mortar stores for a handful of summer style updates that you easily incorporate and update your warm weather wardrobe. These are the key trends we found:

• Bare Shoulder - Whether it's a top w/ one shoulder or a dress that is totally off the shoulder, this is an easy item to pick up that immediately embraces warm weather
• Ruffles - On swimsuits or blouses, a well-place ruffle is as easy way to update your style for summer
• Espadrilles - From wedge sandals to slides to classic espadrille style - esparto rope just seems to scream laid-back summer style
• Fringe & Tassels - They define an instant update, often in vibrant colors. Find them on tops or try a fringe or tassel earring or tie a vibrant tassel onto your go-to summer tote
