Every season, I pick a style aesthetic I want to achieve in the coming weeks. This summer, I wanted to focus on looking as elegant as possible. I’m trying to channel my inner wealthy New York City woman who escapes to her chic house in the Hamptons. This has led me to scouring my favorite retailers for the most expensive-looking items to master the vibe I was going for. I found so many stellar pieces from J.Crew, COS, Aritzia, Reformation, and a few other favorite retailers of mine that we’re so good I couldn’t keep them to myself.
