Spring/Summer Shoppies

What's in my cart for Summer 2026!

May 16, 2026

Hello!
Is it just me or do we all have a case of the shoppies right now?! Feels like every label just came out with their new spring/summer collections and there’s so much fun stuff out there right now to be inspired by. I’m staying up way past my bedtime to write this letter, so let’s get right into it! We’ve got party pants, sporty spicy lewks, and a few sweet, pretty pieces for frolicking if that’s your thing. If you enjoy reading Amuse Bouche, give it a heart or a comment! Will make me feel better for staying up so late! <3

Party Pants:

It must be peony season because petal pink is the color of the moment! Some of you were very invested when I wondered aloud on IG if I should get these Pucci pants I found on TRR. Spoiler alert… I got them! They’re totally outside what I would normally go for, but they just SPOKE to me. I was so thrilled when I unboxed them and they fit and were as cute as I had imagined them to be. I had to figure out what top to wear with them and this whisper pink shirt from TWP was a great match! Had to toughen things up a lil so wore my trusty black Alaia’s + black sunnies. There are so many great options if you are in the market for some party pants of your own! Live a little!!!!

You may have seen these pants on JLaw paired with a red sweater. Obsessed!
If you don’t feel like trolling TRR for vintage Pucci, Ref made some super cute shorts for us.
I’m also dying for these white eyelet jeans. Counting the days til the preorder arrives!
Chan Luu forever! The pink techno taffeta’s are insane.
Ciao Lucia’s pink party pants are so fun. They also come in a dress!
The new floating diamonds from Dorsey are magical. I loooove mine in this rosey shade.
I went to a cute dinner celebrating Alex Mill x Harvester (popping up in LA thru May!) and all the cool girls were wearing Thistles sunglasses. Act accordingly!
Dear Cecilia’s bag continues to bring a smile to my face. I take any excuse to use it! I’m now lusting over the apple charm to go with.
My daily lippie these days is Westman Atelier’s Hydrabalm in Nectar and is included in Violet Grey’s Put it in the Bag event. XO!
Can’t get my mind off of Jude’s Rooty sandal. I love it as a contrast to these girly pants!
This suede pouch is so chic and comes in all kinds of delicious colors and sizes.

Island Time

This vibe is based around the incredible surfy Madesome pants. It’s giving Blue Crush, but she’s grown up and staying at a chic house in Kauai. I love the resurgence of a graphic T. Wish I didn’t get rid of sooo many good ones when cleaning out my closet and trying to be minimal! BTW, I think this style reads young, but is totally great for all ages! Add in a touch of sportiness and see how you feel!

Ok this dress is reminiscent of the infamous Chanel surf dress. Might have to get her to scratch the itch!
Sweet little bonnet that sits close to the head. Looks v cool on.
Celine shades. Nuff said.
If you’re not already aware, Climax is a very cool bookstore in NY and London. They’re a great follow on IG and happen to make incredible T shirts.
GWS makes some of the best SPF I’ve tried. I actually look forward to putting it on! I’d put some in your bag @ Violet Grey if I were you.
Lesse x Lie Studios chapstick holster! Unbelieeeevably chic. I hope they restock!
Marlien posted this Prada swimsuit and I died. My birthday is at the end of the month if anyone is feeling very generous.
Aforementioned Madesome pants! I want all the colors. And the shorts. And the T shirts!!!!
Madewell x Melissa jelly flip flops: Cuz I’m not quite ready to shell out $300 for flip flops. Reserving the right to change my mind on that.
Dorsey Enamel everything: I received a necklace and bracelet this week and they have not left my body since! Obsessed with the colorways and will need to order the anklet pronto! They are sooo charming IRL and add the perfect lil touch of summer to any look.
Did you know that Roman Coppola has a really cool bag brand called Pacific Tote Company? They are some of the very best and such good quality. Now you know!
The best makeup to bring on vacation… Barely anything, but gives a touch of color and makes rosy cheeks look intentional.
One of the best moments on holiday is getting back to your room after a big day in the sun, taking a shower and doing a face mask before dinner. I love Blue Lagoon’s Mineral Mask because it’s super hydrating and makes me feel revitalized after swimming all day.

Florals for Spring

Here are some romantic, flirty looks that would be gorgeous in Puglia or Provence or the idyllic holiday in your imagination. Perfect for frolicking in a sunflower field or stopping to smell the roses.

Matteau Broderie: I have their black top and wear it constantly. Was so cute while pregnant! I just got the white dress and it’s a stunner. Goes without saying, but their 90s maillot is a perfect one piece that will last forever.
This begonia print from Doen has my heart! The dress is absolutely gorgeous and if you have a wedding this summer… wear this!!! I just ordered the shirt and will be wearing with light washed baggy jeans.
Butter yellow top to wear with everything.
A perfect, classic cat eye. Looks great on just about everyone.
I just got this embroidered Apron Skirt in the mail and immediately put it on and pranced around the house, it is SO cute and flattering! Wear with a slinky black spaghetti strap or a white button down tucked in!
Easy breezy flip flops to go with everything.
Cutie top and skirt for sipping a spritz in the town square. Cin Cin!
Sweet daffodil colored bandana to tie in your hair or wrap croissants in.
Since I am Basket Girl, I feel I have the authority to declare this as the basket of the summer. Yes, we need baskets for our phone!
Patiently awaiting these dreamy pants from Christy Dawn.
Don’t even think about going to Europe without a pair of Friulane slippers! So comfortable, light and elevates even the most casual of outfits.
Carolina Bucci bracelets are just my favorite. They’re woven from 18k gold and colored threads. You tie it on your wrist with a double knot and it just stays on! Plus you’re supposed to make a wish when you tie it. Cutest gift from such a thoughtful friend.
