I’m a Fashion Editor, and These Are a Few of My Favorite Things Right Now
There’s a running bit in my household that if you can’t find me, I’m probably in a corner somewhere on my phone, but I’m not scouring Instagram or playing games. I’m online shopping. Before you ask, no, I don’t have a spending problem. I like to know what’s out there, and I find comfort in habitual scrolling. It’s my favorite activity, and as such, my wish lists are simultaneously thorough and very impressive. I’m not bragging. It’s just the truth.
I actually just wrapped up my summer 2025 wish list, and honestly, it might be my best one yet. Inside, you’ll find affordable buys from the likes of Zara, Nordstrom, and COS as well as designer pieces I’m intensely saving up for. Think: a Cartier mini Tank, The Row’s mesh knee-high boots, and the perfect satin Toteme coat that I recently tried on at the brand’s Upper East Side boutique and fell hard and fast for. Sandals, swimwear, sunglasses, and more summer essentials are, of course, sprinkled in the mix—as are easy dresses, outfit-making accessories, and a few of my favorite basics. Essentially, what you’re about to scroll through is a treasure trove of fashion editor–approved summer fashion items. Enjoy.
I love a plain white tank as much as the next person, but this pop of red will make for such a fun change of pace.
Nordstrom
Lace Trim Bias Cut Midi Skirt
I’m going to go off on a limb and say that a lace-trim skirt is the coolest buy of the summer.
The Row
Mesh and Leather Knee-High Boots
If you own these in a size 40 and want anything of mine in a trade, just hit me up.
Jimmy Fairly
Coline Sunglasses
I’m a big Jimmy Fairly fan. I have three pairs already.
Massimo Dutti
Suede Leather Trousers
Suede pants for summer? Nothing could be cooler.
I now own this tank in two colors. It’s so high-quality and cool. Plus, $17? Say less.
Juju Vera
Exclusive Riviera Petra Tasseled Sterling Silver Necklace
I’m very into throwing on a T-shirt dress, accessorizing, and being on my way. It’s a perfect blank canvas.
COS
Panelled Cotton Midi Skirt
The tiers and shape on this skirt make it so much more interesting.
Madewell
The Kira Covered Thong Sandal
These are just easy, versatile, and cool. Done.
If this dress isn’t in your suitcase on your next vacation, you’ll be starting the trip with an L.
Tory Burch
Ribbed Tank Top
Take your tank-top outfits about 50 levels up.
Lovers and Friends
Eliette Pant
These bubbly genie pants are going to be my most-worn bottoms this summer.
I went to Tory Burch to try these peep-toe pumps on the exact day they arrived in the SoHo store. I’m obsessed with them and will own them before summer ends.
Roucha is one of my favorite brands right now. It’s cool, classic, and easy.
cos
Oversized Hand-Woven Tote Bag in Raffia
This bag truly is ludicrously capacious.
Prada
Embroidered Vintage-Look Fabric Mini-Dress
All I want to do is wear this beautiful Prada nightgown with white poplin pants and flip-flops.
Good jeans are always on my wish list, no matter how many pairs I already own.
THE ROW
Morpheus Plaid Cotton Shirt
I’m so here for anything plaid right now, and The Row is doing the print best.
Madewell
The Chiara Kitten Heel Thong Sandal
These red suede thong sandals are an instant outfit booster. Just add jeans and a tee.
cartier
Tank Louis Cartier Watch
I’m currently lusting over this miniature version of Cartier’s signature Tank. It’s both cute and extremely sophisticated.
Reformation
Vida Low Rise Pant
I love these low-rise trousers. They feel modern and classic at the same time.
LIBEROWE
Tamara Crepe Peplum Halterneck Top
I actually own this exact halter top in a printed silk, but this ivory crêpe version has a long, train-like feature in the back that’s so beautiful. I think I need to have it. Also, brides, this is a perfect wedding-weekend buy.
Charlotte Chesnais
Sterling Silver Bague Triplet Ring
I’m not really a jewelry person, but this ring is a work of art.
COS
Gathered V-Neck Maxi Dress
A good buy if your wardrobe’s looking a little too gray, black, ivory, and navy.
I must own every available pair of lace-trim shorts.
tiffany & co.
Full Heart Pendant
I’m trying to collect Elsa Peretti jewelry from Tiffany & Co. like Pokémon.
Burberry
Check Trim Bikini
This one’s a need, not a want. My summer won’t be complete without one.
A great, big cotton sweater is a perfect summer wardrobe addition. It’s lightweight but also warm for chillier summer nights.
j.crew
Cosmo Cropped Pant in Textured Satin
This color is so luxurious, and so is the fabric. Toss these on with the above cotton sweater and be done with it.
I can’t believe this colorway is still in stock. Honestly, I’m shocked.
Zw Collection
Embroidered Strap Dress
This dress is absolutely joining me when I travel to Italy at the end of the summer.
j.crew
Cap-Sleeve Lace-Trim Top in Cotton Voile
I just got this vintagey lace top from J.Crew and can’t wait to wear it far too often this summer.
High Sport
Savannah Cotton-Blend Shorts
If you hate jean shorts as much as I do, try this shorts version of High Sport’s beloved stretchy pants. They’re elevated and casual at the same time.
ALAÏA
Le Click Small Leather Shoulder Bag
I liked the original Le Click bag, but this shrunken version is even better.
I tried this coat on at Toteme a few weeks ago and haven’t been able to shake it from my brain ever since. The fabric is beyond luxe, and the collarless design feels different and unique.
Dark-wash jeans are slept on way too often.
Massimo Dutti
Split Suede Sandals With Toe Divider
I saw this shoehorn cord necklace at Recto’s store in Seoul, South Korea, a few weeks ago. It’s so cool and will be a huge hit on IG.
Massimo Dutti
100% Cotton Check Shirt
Zw Collection
Long Bermuda Shorts
Current obsession: culottes. (Yes, I said culottes.)
