Adam’s Style Sheet: Style Refresh

A denim shirt is the traditional white shirt’s cooler, more easy­going cousin. This Western style isn’t just great with jeans (we do love a denim tuxedo). It can also bring snazzy casualness to both a traditional black pencil skirt for day and a jazzier sparkly one for evening.

Cargo pants are back in a big way. This navy pair perfectly melds dressy and sportif into something that can stylishly sub for your go­to trousers with a silk blouse and blazer or a chunky knit sweater. Vince's red version of this style will be available next month.

Meet your new favorite tote bag. Its buttery, light­weight leather and effort­less, unstructured shape make it great as a handbag or work carryall. And carry all it does—there’s plenty of room for your stuff. Plus, you can styl­ishly supplement with one of the brand’s add-ons.

When you have on an entrance-­making coat like this striking winter­ white number, what’s underneath may just play second fiddle. Even if you’re wearing something simple like pants and a long­ sleeved tee, it’ll truly make it into an outfit with a capital O. Available on milly.com in mid-August.

Think of leather jeans as you would corduroys or den­ims, but they can be dressed up or down and make everything more luxe. This high-­rise, vegan top­ seller comes in short, reg­ular, or tall sizing.

Whether you’re a tailored­ blazer newbie or have a go-­to, know that this find is especially flattering. The cut gives you a nice sharp shoulder, and the double­-breasted style helps elongate your torso. Pair it with khakis, or make your summery floral dress feel like fall.

This knit skirt gives sexy-librarian vibes. And it's not only comfy, made with ample stretch and a fold-over waist, but also quite versatile. Keep it youthful with a hoodie or classic with a twinset.

Meet the jeans shape of the sea­son: straight but with a slight flare at the bottom. In a slightly worn-­in, trendy stone wash, these leg length­eners work with a multitude of body types and shoe styles—from heels to boots.

Pearls are becoming less precious and more playful. Worn long or doubled up, this necklace has flair, thanks to clip-­on charms. Available on sequin-nyc.com in mid-August.

Layer this lightweight turtleneck under a strapless or spaghetti­ strap dress and you’ll supplement your fall ward­robe in a fresh­ and ­fun, ’90s kind of way.

You’ve got to love a set, and this knit one is pretty fabulous, worn together or separately. If you typically shy away from curve­-hugging pieces, the A­-line cut of the dress keeps it wearable.

And of course, you’ll get tons of mileage out of the matching cardigan year­-round.

From knee-­highs to thigh­-highs, boots are trending. Slide on this stretchy, faux-leather pair to shape calves and take leggings, jeans, or pants up a notch. They’re also a nod to mod when paired with tights and a mini.
