My Cart Runneth Over

Everything I'm eyeing for summer.

Maybe it’s the longer days, maybe it’s the jacarandas and jasmine blooming, maybe it’s a long-awaited dose of personal good news, but my serotonin levels are uncharacteristically high these days. Putting me, uncharacteristically, in the mood to consume.

After minimizing my belongings, moving cross-country, and living out of a suitcase for three months, I’ve spent the last year navigating a low-frequency fatigue towards my “capsule wardrobe.” My personal style needs an adrenaline shot, and this summer might finally see it happen.

Here’s what’s burning a hole in my cart right now.

• Summer = crispy crunchy poplin

• The perfect post-beach sweater. This has been living rent-free in my brain for months.

• Basketball capris, yes please!

• Reject flip flops, embrace the water shoe.

• Adjustable bikini skort - potentially worth the splurge as someone who hates cheeky bottoms

• This Brain Dead half-zip that you need to try on like, yesterday - a waxy, matte ripstop that’s unlike anything I’ve ever felt

• Desperately ISO a pair of gargantuan white pants

• I see your vintage activewear and raise you leopard print activewear

• Genuinely never thought of a bikini as cool before

• Did you know The North Face made sneakers??

• Surprisingly sweet from Awake

• It’s been time to retire my decade-old Telfar, this might be the replacement I’ve been waiting for

• My absolute favorite CDMX brand, still hits the spot

• There’s simply always room for another striped shirt

• This indie, LA-made jewelry brand was my highlight of the Renegade Craft Fair

I’d love to know if any of this reflects your own summer wishlist — or perhaps just joined it. If you’re feeling a similar disconnection from your own wardrobe or personal style lately, we’re in this together (and I’d love to chat).
