Want more? Head over to the shop and check out BAM’S BUY, where you’ll find the ultimate running list of add-to-cart goodies.
HUNZA G POLLY SWIMSUIT
Say hello to the most flattering (and comfortable!) one-piece ever. It’s basically the LBD of swimsuits – classic, super chic, and always looks good. Don’t let the one-size-fits-most sway you: this swimsuit looks good on so many different bodies. Bonus: it totally works as a maternity option.
SHOP
GUCCI TOP HANDLE BEAUTY CASE
The newest Gucci collection is pure candy – happy, bright, and perfectly punchy. This top-handle one tops the list for me. I love retro design and the color combo is just too good.
SHOP
VINTAGE CHANEL NECKLACE
I love perusing the “Buy Now” section of the Sotheby’s site. I always come across some really special – albeit expensive – vintage items. The latest one to catch my eye is this gold hammered Chanel necklace. Dated 1995, this weighty necklace would look good with everything from an LBD to a simple white t-shirt.
SHOP
BEYOND YOGA MIDI LEGGINGS
As much as I love Lululemon’s “Align” leggings, I think these might actually be better. Beyond Yoga has checked all the right boxes with these leggings: super comfortable, flattering, with just enough compression to make you feel tucked in, in all the right places. I will be buying these in every color I can get my hands on.
SHOP
SCOTCH & SODA REVERSIBLE SHERPA JACKET
Though it’s hard to think ahead to jackets and layers right now (summer has just reached its peak!), the early bird really does catch the worm. In this case, that means score goodies like this reversible (two for the price of one!) jacket that rings in at under $250.
SHOP
APL TECHLOOM BREEZE SNEAKERS
While I wouldn’t advise running marathons in these sneakers, they’re perfect for light workouts and bopping around town. Super comfortable and light on your feet, they’re the ideal throw-on-and-go kick. Bonus: this new pink hue is even better in person.
SHOP
SUPERGOOP GLOW STICK
Sunscreen application on kiddos is truly something that deserves a medal when done right. (Who can get their kid to stand still long enough for even a mediocre application let alone one that will suffice the endless hours logged outside?) The Glow Stick from Supergoop is a total game changer. It goes on so quickly and so easily – and without the mess! – that George never even complains when I try to put it on him.
SHOP
DUSEN DUSEN FRUIT STRIPED TOWELS
Need a last -minute summer hostess gift? Take a play from my book and stalk up on these striped beach towels. I usually gift a set of two and level them up by personalizing with embroidery – think: initials or a house name or number.
SHOP
VINTAGE CERAMIC ICE CREAM CONES
Fact: ice cream tastes good whether it’s served from paper plates or fine china. But presentation points count for something, right? These vintage ceramic cones remind me of an old-school ice cream parlor. I’ll take a double scoop, please.
SHOP
SPRWMN LEATHER LEGGINGS
SPRWMN’s crop-flare leggings are truly the best of the best: they’re double-layered for an extra flattering fit and have the ideal amount of stretch where you don’t feel like they’re sagging after one wear. They come in all the good colors, too, including this rich navy hue that just landed in my cart.
