Candice Swanepoel and Summer Boho Dressing

We’ve been spoiled this summer. The sweltering heat waves didn’t really hit and rainfall has been minimal—for the most part. These ideal conditions have impacted fashion with a sense of elegant romanticism.

Translating this is model Candice Swanepoel who hit the streets of New York in a festive, gypsy-print halter neck–style dress from Free People. Form-fitting yet refined, the dress acts as the ideal foundation for Swanepoel to show off her toned physique while still remaining modest for running around town.

And in true nomadic fashion, Swanepoel kept accessories minimal, slipping into a pair of strappy sandals and using a shopping bag as a purse.

While we love the idea of ditching an already overstuffed tote, why not snap up Alexander Wang for Balenciaga’s elevated version of a shopping tote in elephant gray, perfect for dropping in fresh market finds.
