Summer Clothing & Accessories from Your Favorite Stores

Everyone raves about fall fashion, but I tend to spend the most money buying new items for summer. Anyone else? Maybe it’s because I have more events (vacations, get-togethers, date nights) when the weather is warmer, so there is more shopping to do? Who knows.

Regardless, I’ve spent some time browsing some of my favorite stores for their newest summer clothing and accessories and wanted to share my picks with you.

J Crew Factory Summer Finds

J Crew Factory makes great swimsuits and summer dresses — I’ve owned many over the years and they hold up for a few years. This year, I’m loving the beachy motifs, pretty patterns, and simple accessories.

Abercrombie Summer Finds

Sometimes I feel like a grandma walking into Abercrombie because I’m surrounded by fit 20-somethings in their baggy jeans. But since my style can be pretty youthful overall, I gravitate towards that youthful vibe (especially during summer when I can get away with it more). I’m loving the cut-outs and tie details on their summer pieces.

Anthropologie Summer Finds

Anthro’s summer pieces are — as always — whimsical, playful, and retro-inspired. Big trends this year are fruits and drinks, embroidery, “retro resort” style, flowy silhouettes, and scallop-cut hems.
