Can you tell I’m in the mood to shop this week? Good Lord. I am itching for new duds given the slightly milder temps and the fact that we just booked our house for the Hamptons the first week of July! (Do I or do I not already have a Pinterest board with all of the items I’d love to buy my children for the summer largely inspired by our trip?! micro will be wearing a lot of BusyBees bubbles and rompers and polos with seersucker trunks; mini will be wearing pretty summer dresses like this and this).
Below, 10 spring MUSTS for under $100:
1 // FRILLY WHITE BLOUSE (ALSO LOVE THIS AND THIS) — SEE ABOVE FOR INSPO
2 // MADEWELL SKINNY OVERALLS (I SHARED A PIC OF MYSELF IN THESE, TWINNING WITH MICRO, ON INSTASTORY AND GOT SO MANY INQUIRIES — THESE ARE SO, SO FLATTERING! I WEAR WITH A FRILLY WHITE BLOUSE, LIKE THE ONES LINKED ABOVE, UNDERNEATH TO ELEVATE THE LOOK)
3 // SUPERGA SNEAKERS (CURRENTLY ON SALE WITH THE SHOPBOP PROMO)
4 // NATORI FEATHERS BRA (THE BEST THE BEST — ON SALE IN SELECT COLORS HERE; SPRING’S A GOOD TIME TO REFRESH THE LINGERIE DRAWER, WHICH I KEEP TIDY WITH THIS SET)
5 // SHIRTDRESS (ALSO LOVE THIS IN BLACK, SLIGHTLY OVER $100)
DRAMATIC BIB COLLAR TOP (VERY VERY TRENDY THANKS TO MIU MIU, WAS ALL OVER MILAN!; YOU CAN GET THE LOOK FOR SLIGHTLY MORE WITH THIS AMAZING SEA PIECE, THIS GANNI, OR THIS $135 ASOS FIND)
THESE RAFFIA MULES!! LOVE WITH WHITE JEANS AND A BOLD TOP
A FUN SPRING DRESS — CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS MARKED DOWN TO UNDER $100! AND THIS IS VERY PRETTY AND LOVESHACKFANCY-ESQUE
EVERLANE CASHMERE TEE (LOVE THE PRETTY COLORS — WILL PAIR WITH SKINNY JEANS! — AND STOCKING UP ON THESE $15 COTTON TEES)
P.S. More spring wardrobe inspiration and more finds for spring in general here.
P.P.S. A simple weeknight meal worth trying and who else longed to be discerning as a teen?
P.P.P.S. As we head into spring breaks and warmer weather in general: may I make a plug for these super compact microfiber towels? I always keep on in the basket of my stroller in the summer months, when mini tends to make a beeline for the splashpads in Central Park. Very thin, folds up into a small square, and yet really dries! Bonus: they are cute.
