Find my latest wishlist here*

I usually keep all the pieces I want to share with you as screenshots on my phone, but it’s messy and disrupts my camera roll calm, which I take very seriously. But a far cleaner way is to log them in an easy-to-reference list, for both you and me, so you can now find updates to my wishlist in real time here*. WHY DID I NOT DO THIS SOONER?! Feel free to save and reference it if you ever want a heads-up on what I’ve been scrolling. On to this week’s list…


I’ve ordered it in a medium.

I know I’m still riding the high of my Luna Pant* purchase, but J.Crew know what they are doing. A Summer Rollneck Sweater*? In a linen-cotton blend? The kind of thing you’d want to throw on with the aforementioned trousers? I’m sold. It reminds me of a jumper that DONNI did last year that I stupidly bought in the wrong size, but loved wearing with their Taffeta Pants*. The kind of beachy piece that you want to throw on for days when a tee feels too little and a full-knit too much. As a gal who lives in a breezy seaside town, I think I’d get a lot of wear out of this.

Find the full list here*

The NET-A-PORTER private sale* has started (you just need to be logged in to see it). I don’t want to tell you how many pages I scrolled to put the above list together, but trust that I’ve saved you a lot of time by cherry-picking out the good bits*. Highlights include:

  • This Liffner Belted Suede Bucket Bag* - I always thought the size of this looked roomy.

  • The Kinto Leather Flip Flops* are 20% off and currently available in every size.

  • Lido swimwear is so good - tried and tested, baby! - so I’m tempted to try this Contrast Trim Swimsuit*.

  • Comme Si Silk Shorts* in the most gorgeous olive green colour.

  • Kelly mentioned these Deiji Studios Pleat Barrel-Leg Pants* in her latest post, and they shot to the top of my wishlist.

The shorts version* also speak to me.

I feel like I talk about these Chan Luu Techno Taffeta Barrel Pants* on a weekly basis at this point and am well aware that I just need to pull the trigger. But can we talk sizing for a minute? Has anyone given them a go and can dish out intel in the comments? Please and thank you in advance!

Continuing on the easy pant parade, these Enza Costa Everywhere Pants* are firmly on my radar.
Or maybe you’re after something a little more polished? LOVE that these are called the Leg Elongator Jeans* and they come in three different lengths. Handy.
Brown for summer - Sogole is onto something!

Some good basics with a twist as always from ME+EM:

  • If you like the whole contrast trim thing but want it to feel a little more subtle, try this tee*.

  • A Square Neck Knit Top* to pair with your linens, because sometimes a cotton T-shirt can feel too samey.

  • Not a top per se, but a Stripe Cotton Scarf* that can be whatever you want it to be.

I find Ref sizing runs pretty true to size, FYI.

Olivia Knott posted this photo of her in a navy tee, jeans and ballet flats, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about the perfect navy long-sleeve since, and I think it could be this*. Bonus, it’s half price of the LESET Margo Long-Sleeve T-shirt*.

To be honest, Reformation is on a bit of a roll right now, especially when it comes to shorts. Two pairs are on my wishlist:

  • The Nora Shorts in Pink* are outstanding. I’m not much of a pink gal myself, so would probably gravitate to the white cotton pair*, but if pink is in your palette then GO FOR IT.

  • I keep coming back to the Sandy Shorts in Graphite*. The stripe! The fit! Could this be the summer I commit to the bermuda length?

Looks out the window at the current grey skies and sulks.
With leggings, with jeans, it’s got drop-off/pick-up written all over it.

I’ll admit that the windbreaker trend has left me unmoved… until now. I just can’t deny how practical this Technical Hooded Jacket* would be. In black, this would feel too harsh, but in brown? You got me there.

I found stock of the sold-out DONNI Nylon Anorak here*!!!!
Anyone else add this tee* and this belt* to their shopping list after Leandra’s post?
Raffia Tote Bag*, Boat Neck Tank*, Relaxed Leather Jacket*, Barrel Leg Cotton Trousers*, Linen Cotton Overshirt*, Silk Fringe Scarf*, Leather Flip Flops* and Terry Sweatshirt*

Apologies to my friends on the other side of the pond, but ARKET summer is real good. I’m currently coveting the Raffia Tote* that gives serious Dragon Diffusion vibes and the Linen Cotton Overshirt* that looks very current day Harry Styles to me.

If you want the U.K link, find the bra here* and the thongs here*

I know I mentioned them last week, but my Hanky Panky Lace Bralette* and Lace Thongs* arrived and I have to give them another shoutout because despite not exactly looking it, they are ridiculously comfortable. I’m so pleased I replaced my old ones. They'd done a serious five-year shift in my underwear drawer, and that’s pretty good going. The stretch is nothing to be sniffed at; I’ve worn these through pregnancy and various different iterations of my body, and they’ve remained dig-free throughout.


Behind the paywall this week: What I’ve been saving in my inbox to read this weekend (plus the three Substacks I devour!!), a sneak peek at what I’m working on, five outfits you could wear, well… now, plus what I’m returning from Flore Flore…
