Cuffed boyfriend jeans and strappy heels are a no-brainer in August, and thanks to a couple of clever sartorial hacks, you can easily take the look well into the fall. With an outfit like the one here, an oversized but tailored blazer is your best friend. Use it as a top layer that not only adds polish to the outfit by creating a strong shoulder to juxtapose the slouch of the jean, but which also allows for multiple layers underneath.

"At the end of that year, I remembering bringing it all up to the head of the agency and saying: 'If you want to drop me, just drop me.

To celebrate this next-gen, crazier-than-usual way of styling things up, we partnered with PUMA to tap three highly creative dressers, who are embracing summer's chill vibes and living their best lives, to show us how it's done. Watch the video above — set against the backdrop of a nostalgic suburban town, complete with ice-cream shops and bowling alleys — to see how the trio layers tulle skirts over jeans, doubles up on sunnies, and pairs hoodies with everything.
