Since I started working in the fashion industry, I have lived in New York City, Los Angeles, and Boston. One thing is certain no matter the location: Fashion people love to shop—myself included. With the start of summer on the horizon, I have spent many hours perusing my favorite online retailers in preparation for warmer weather. As always, my taste is bigger than my entire budget, but I am more than happy with the purchases I settled on.
