THE COLORS OF LATE SUMMER
Sun-warmed orange. Deep burgundy. A leather Apple Watch band for long summer days.
August is the season of color.
The light feels warmer. Days move slower. Summer wardrobes become lighter, simpler—and the right accessory can change the entire look.
This month, we're styling color as the detail that brings everything together.
A clean neutral outfit.
A touch of warm leather.
One unexpected color at the wrist.
Three looks. Three moods. Two signature shades.
THE AUGUST PALETTE
CREAM · SAND · DENIM · TAN · BURGUNDY · ORANGE
Late-summer dressing starts with natural neutrals.
Cream linen.
Sun-washed denim.
Warm sand tones.
Then comes the color.
Orange for daylight.
Burgundy for after dark.
Let the outfit stay simple.
Let the leather stand out.

Charcoal.
Then introduce one unexpected detail.
