July 4th is easily one of the best holidays each year — what’s better than barbecuing with friends, lounging at the beach and watching fireworks all weekend long? I always find myself shopping for July 4th even if we don’t have a party to go to. Please give me all of the blue and white stripes and red american flags!

Today I’m sharing a few of my favorite retailers you can shop for the best 4th of July looks —
Summer is officially underway and I couldn’t be more excited! There’s nothing better than eating outside at one of our favorite restaurants and strolling the West Village during these slow summer weekends. We have a bit of travel coming up over the next two months so I always appreciate a down weekend we have at home!
When it comes to shopping for summer I tend to lean in to easy, breezy summer staples like shift dresses or maxi dresses that I could easily wear to work or on the weekends! I know I’ve mentioned this brand a few times this year but I seriously can’t get enough of the brand Kule which you can shop on Shopbop. They have a great collection of stylish stripe shirts and shift dresses that I’ve been wearing on repeat.
When it comes to lightweight maxi dresses — Sea, DVF and Mara Hoffman all have great selections of dresses for your work and weekend wardrobes! Speaking of weekends, our first Hampton’s trip is coming up next weekend so give me all of the straw totes and one piece bathing suits!! I recently discovered Mariella Villar who designs custom straw totes and I am obsessed. You can find a wide variety of sizes, colors and monogram options. And p.s. if you’re not into straw totes, take a peek at Shopbop’s bags under $300 dollars category!
Can you believe Memorial Day is right around the corner?!? We’re off to Nantucket for the long holiday weekend and I can not wait to show Josh around the island for his very first time. We have a few dinner reservations lined up but if you have any recommendations on where else to eat for lunch or breakfast, we’d love to hear them!
So far the weather forecast looks like it will be a little chilly but we’re keeping our fingers crossed for sunshine! I most likely will be packing lots of white jeans, sweaters and espadrilles. I recently have been loving everything from the brand Sea – are you familiar with them? You can shop their collection on Shopbop including the white dress & top I included in the collage below! In terms of espadrilles, you can never go wrong with wedges or flats from Soludos or Castaner. Last but not least, I’ll be so mad at myself if I forget my SPF or sunglasses which I tend to do more often than not. Right now I’m loving Chuda’s Sheer Hydrating SPF.
I don’t know about you but I’m seriously ready for spring! I’m officially ready to ditch my turtlenecks and puffy coats for lighter spring tops and dresses. And lucky for us, this week is the perfect time to start updating our spring wardrobes! Shopbop is having their major spring sale event where the more you buy, the more you save! From spring tops and dresses to jeans and spring espadrilles, there are hundreds of items on sale! Be sure to use promo code – ‘GoBig19’ at checkout!
Below are a few of my favorite pieces I have on my radar right now. And definitely check out Shopbop’s earrings collection!! So many new, cute options at great price points.
Happy Shopping! Xo. Lauren
