LE CATCH

A Gucci wallet is one thing. But a personalized Gucci wallet is so much more. And then some! By now, you know I'm a sucker for anything with my initials on it. The only challenge is choosing the color and material of the monogram. I went for the above! What do you think? All options here! (Custom knitwear is also on offer!)

I grew up playing tennis with my twin sister. The sport was ideal because I always had an opponent and a doubles partner. She had a wicked backhand and I was all about a down-the-line forehand. I recently started hitting again, and while my consistency is slowly improving, my court style is not! I want to up my game with Marysia's new Sportclean skirts and dresses, above, along with other cute pieces that straddle the court and the gym. Like these from Nike, L'Etoile Sport, Warm, Asos, and Splits 59. My goal: Queen of the Court!

Looks like we're seeing light at the end of a very long tunnel--showing up even in this season's sparkly, lustrous swim suits! (The above is by Elysiian.) Made with glitter knit lurex, these shimmering suits certainly make a splash and--not to get too deep here--reflect our newfound glowing optimism! The one-piece below is by Beach Riot, which. P.S., could also work as a top with jean shorts or an A-line denim skirt. I also want to dive into this Mikoh, Good American, Oseree, Rumi and Bound by Bond Eye Australia.

And just like that, it's summer in the city! Yippee! The temps are rising--and so are the hemlines. These beauties show how it's best done: with a good amount of leg, but not too much, bare shoulders here and there, and most importantly, teamed with casual, dressed-down accessories (this, this and this). I am so excited to run around in these minis from Essential Antwerp, Scotch & Soda, Faithfull the Brand, Wayf, and Love Shack Fancy. (Dress, above, is on sale by Guiseppe di Morabito and last dress is The Reformation.)

My best friend in Hawaii calls them slippers. I call them flip flops. But we both agree they are a summer wardrobe staple. Given her beachy lifestyle, she has a sizeable and masterfully curated collection, ranging from the OG Locals ($15!) to the studded Christian Louboutin to the decidedly more elegant The Row, above and below. (I prefer this streamlined version I spotted Ashley Olson wearing the other day in NYC.) Zara, of course, has come out with a pretty good riff! I also love these from Gucci (last pic) and Birkenstock, because you don't see them everywhere.

A few highly-anticipated design collaborations launched this week, and I am all over them! Chufy x Mango, inspired by creative director and front row regular Sofia Sanchez de Betak, above, features her signature gyspet-chic dresses, all rendered in sustainable fabrics. My favorites include this, this and this. Target also teamed up with several cool designers: Rixo (below, this one also cute!), Alexis and Christopher John Rogers. Quick, before they sell out!

Yes, white jeans are now a year-round staple (thank you, French Vogue editors), but every summer ushers in a new must-have silhouette. This time around, it's high-waisted, relaxed-fitting, straight-legged and just a wee bit cropped. Exactly like these flattering ones from Alex Mill, Veronica Beard, AGOLDE, and Toteme. These full-length ones from The Row are next level though!
