Cue the 25 Summer Essentials Your Closet Is Currently Begging For

Whenever a new season rolls around, I immediately begin scouring the internet for the latest finds. I want to see the trends that were forecasted on the runways, the basics that return every year, and the impulse-buys that will later become must-haves. But this year, I didn't have to spend too much time searching online because the inspo came to me in real life. I recently received an Evite (which has the chicest and most user-friendly invitations, by the way) to attend our Summer House event in the Hamptons, where many of our favorite brands came together to celebrate the start of summer. The stylish guest list gave me endless inspo and outfits to re-create, and I got the chance to see summer's favorite sunglasses, sundresses, SPF, shoes, and so much more in action. Let's just say the backyard of this South Hampton home was a real-life mood board. Since I couldn't bring you as my plus-one, I compiled a list of must-have summer items for you to shop below. If you want to see all of the pieces that will be by my side this summer, just keep scrolling.
