- Look for Comfy-Yet-Chic Shoes A wedged pair of espadrilles gives instant height, added support and won’t wear you out after a full day on your feet. Diane Von Furstenberg – Sudan: http://rstyle.me/hw3aa7cypw ($199)

- Master an Easy Up-Do Braided hairstyles are everywhere—just look at Scarlett Johansson working hers on the red carpet. To get her look (without the help of a stylist), part your hair down the middle, then braid it into two plaits. Crisscross each one over the crown of your head and pin either end behind an ear with bobbi pins. Pretty polished in no time. Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images

- Wear Makeup That Won’t Melt The key to summer makeup that stays is all in the preparation! Layering priming formula under your foundation will help combat inevitable shine. Or buy a primer in a bronze shade to add a pop of color—and even out a new tan.
