J Crew summer jewelry

J.Crew leans heavily into a refined, “maritime heirloom” aesthetic with this stunning collection of summer jewelry. I like to think of it as a blend of whimsical seaside elements with classic New England sophistication. The collection perfectly captures the elevated nautical and eclectic charm trends, balancing substantial, structured elements like thick gold chains and chunky, oversized baroque pearls with delicate, playful details.

Slip Dresses

Another big trend that’s back are slip dresses — especially with lace trim. This trend makes me think of Paris Hilton and Nicole Ritchie during their peak of The Simple Life fame. Originally inspired by lingerie, the slip dress is typically a lightweight, straight-cut dress with thin straps, minimal structure, and fabrics like satin, silk, or viscose that drape smoothly over the body. Now it’s come back into style (in both long and short versions) with brands like Zara and Reformation leading the pack.

Claw Clips

When I think of claw clips, I think of my friend Paige and her Mom. They both had long hair and when they wanted it up, they used a claw clip. I remember it looking so effortless and somewhat… bohemian? Fast forward to the claw clips of today, which range from basic to bedazzled, with fun shapes, objects, or personalized elements. I have a lot of hair, so I use the medium-sixed ones for half-up styles, and opt for the bigger ones to put it all up in a French twist-like bun.

Baguette Bags

I vividly remember when shoulder bags went out of style and crossbody bags or wristlets became popular. I brought a few of my shoulder bags to college and noticed no one else was wearing them. So in order to fit in, I opted for wristlets instead like everyone else. But back to baguette bags — they are a classic shape so they go with everything and are easy to style, so I get why they’re back in style like other 90’s trends.

Babydoll Tank Tops

Growing up petite, I loved baby doll tank tops since they were loose and flowy and added some weight to my figure. Now, I like the tops but for the complete opposite reason — they hide my stomach! Babydoll tops are a go-to of mine in summer when I want to go for a feminine, breezy look. My tip is to choose one that isn’t too long otherwise your shorts will disappear and you’ll look naked. This was the look my teenage self wore often, and I’ve learned from my mistakes.

Jelly Sandals

My vivid memories of jelly sandals fell into two camps: the smell of the plastic and the blisters they would leave on my feet from rubbing against my skin. You’d think that would’ve deterred me from wearing them, but clearly not! The jelly sandals that are trend these days have improved in comfort, but still have the youthful look from my childhood. And if sandals aren’t your thing, there are flats and slip-on options, too.

Spring Trend: Floral Jeans

If you hear the phrase “florals for spring” and immediately hear a certain iconic movie editor’s voice in your head, you aren’t alone. But for spring 2026, floral denim is having a serious, grown-up moment. This season, the trend has moved away from the pastels of the past and into more artistic interpretations.

Whether you’re a lifelong denim devotee or someone who usually sticks to a classic blue wash, these “personality pieces” are the perfect way to make getting dressed feel fun again.

The “It” Gemstones of 2026

If you’re looking to invest in this trend, these are some of the hot gemstones this year:

Alexandrite: This is known as the “shape-shifter.” It looks green in sunlight and purple under a lamp. It’s the ultimate conversation starter.
Peach Sapphire: Moving away from traditional colors, this moody, earth-toned sapphires is the new favorite for alternative engagement rings and daily wear.
Green Everything: Emeralds are the gold standard, but Peridot and Chrome Diopside are the edgy, more affordable cousins making a huge splash.
Pink Tourmaline: This stone is for those who love a Barbiecore legacy but want it to feel sophisticated and fine-jewelry adjacent.

Trend: Colored Gemstone Jewelry

Move over, quiet luxury. While we’ll always have a soft spot for a classic gold hoop or dainty diamond studs, 2026 is officially the year of dopamine dressing from the neck down. If you’ve noticed your Instagram feed shifting from minimalist neutrals to vibrant pops of emerald, sapphire, and alexandrite, you aren’t imagining it. The colored gemstone jewelry trend has arrived, and it’s arguably the most expressive jewelry movement we’ve seen in a decade.

Jewelry is no longer just an “accessory” to an outfit — it’s the main character.

This aesthetic is perfect for the minimalist who wants to celebrate the season through texture rather than clutter.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

This West Elm Easter collection leans into a refined, artisanal aesthetic that feels both modern and nostalgic. This year, the trend is all about muted palettes and tactile textures (think sage greens, dusty blues, and creamy off-whites with delicate embroidery).

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

Anthropologie’s Easter decor embraces a more artistic, heirloom-inspired aesthetic with hand-painted details, sculptural ceramics, and rich spring colors. Floral pitchers, textured plates, and decorative eggs feel collected and unique, leaning into a vintage garden party vibe.

Playful elements like carrot baskets and bunny figurines add charm, while the intricate patterns and handcrafted feel elevate the overall look.

Every family has their own holiday traditions (and it many instances, this translates to holiday foods). While some of these holiday treats are cultural, others are somewhat random or have a unique story behind them. I wanted to share holiday treats from my childhood (and adulthood) and a little bit of story behind them.
