@filippahagg; @missoniWith all of the focus on quiet luxury this past year, I've been craving pieces in my wardrobe that stand apart and make more of a statement. With the rise of iconic resortwear prints from the likes of Missoni and Pucci this summer, it turns out I'm not alone.

@pernilleteisbaek; @kendalljenner"Raffia is having a major moment once again this summer, and the one look that's on everybody's mood boards is the viral vacation outfit Kendall Jenner wore during her trip to the South of France. She carried a woven version of Bottega Veneta's Arco Tote, and the oversize shape immediately caught my attention. It's a practical trend that I think everyone will look to emulate with all their beach looks this summer." — Anna LaPlaca, editor

@monikh; @sofiarichiegrainge"Thanks in part to Sofia Richie's French Riviera wardrobe days before her wedding earlier this year, linen vests (especially long ones that button up to the neck) have infiltrated the suitcases of fashion people this summer. The beauty of this trend is that it's lightweight and relaxed but still looks polished enough to wear out at night." — Allyson Payer, senior editor

@cassdimicco; @chey_maya"Like it or not, I can foresee social media fashion aesthetics like mermaidcore inspiring a lot of people's travel wardrobes this summer. But rather than passing this trend off as cheesy, I do think there's a chic way to play into the cultural relevance by way of accessories. You don't have to wear actual shells, as that's far too cliché. Instead, you can opt for accessories that feel either vintage inspired or are very surrealist in nature. For example, you could pair vintage Versace starfish clip-on earrings with your simple swimsuit to add a little sparkle, or you can style a slip dress with Simkhai's mussel-shaped handbag for a destination wedding. Whatever way you choose to wear it, I can guarantee we will see all things sea related well outside the depths of the ocean this summer." — Jasmine Fox-Suliaman, editor

@ilanatorbiner; @gracejoshua13"Every summer, crochet makes its annual return, and I, for one, am a huge fan. Especially if I have a vacation coming up, there is nothing like a great tan paired with a stunning crochet dress and sandals. I want to book a trip to Mexico just talking about it. I wore this crochet dress with this Bottega clutch to an event on a boat in New York City. It's not exactly Tulum but a girl can dream. If you're asking me which vacation trend I'm obsessed with, it's crochet for sure." — Grace O'Connell-Joshua, assistant shopping editor
