Summer Fashion 2009

Meet Ian Franke and Melissa Gullotti. He's a broker at Institutional Insurance in Hingham. She owns I Soci Salon on Newbury Street, and cuts hair there, too. The common denominator? They like to go out and look good doing it. That's why we tapped them to play dress-up in the season's best styles for every summer occasion. In the pages ahead, you'll see the latest trends—nautical motifs, bold patterns, and superbright colors (get out the shades!)—tailored to real Bostonians. Here's what to wear right here, right now.

We'll start with sunglasses, and then get to the clothes, and finally some accessories.
