I know what you’re thinking: Summer is barely underway, and you’re already talking about fall. Give us a chance to put our swimsuits on! I know; I know.

Moreover, I guarantee you already have next season’s biggest accessory trend rolled up in your armoire, and you haven't thought twice about it.

From Michael Kors to JW Anderson and Saint Laurent, practically every designer showcased the waist-cinching accessory over blazers, overcoats, dresses, and jumpsuits. And what’s not to love? The chic accessory has the ability to add instant polish to any outfit, pulling your look together one buckle at a time.
