Surfer

Dome, Jones/PacificCoastNews

Hanging ten is optional when adopting this laid back look. Loose tees, hyper-bright accessories and casual, lightwash denim capture that breezy, sun-kissed vibe on the beach or the city streets. Ride this style wave in a vibrant print dress, like Kate Bosworth's ocean blue tie-dye number.
