What it is: Turquoise tunic, $30, H&M

How to wear it: This turquoise tunic from H&M is giving us a whole lot of luxe for less. From the detailed patterned and delicate embroidery to the fabulous front tie and perfect silhouette, this sweet little top has got it all including the perfect price. Throw it on over white skinny jeans with a coral statement necklace and espadrille wedges for a whimsical evening under the stars, or sport it when the sun is shining over a pair of boyfriend jeans, a straw fedora and a fabulous pair of silver sandals.

Why I love it: I have a soft spot for this turquoise hue and can't resist an item that does double or triple duty. For those of us who love to swim but hate to prance around in only our bathing suit, this top is the ultimate upgrade from the traditional sarong. It's a triple-threat closet staple: light-as-air, cute-as-can-be and provides ample coverage. What more could one ask for in a post-dip piece? I am wearing it to the office now with dark cropped jeans and orange loafers but you can be sure I will be sporting it on the dock this weekend with an oversized sun hat and pink lemonade in hand.
