Summer travel season is officially here, and I wanted to share a few dresses that are perfect for life on the go. These easy-to-pack styles are comfortable, breathable, and ideal for staying cool while exploring new cities. Each one is made from natural fibers like cotton and linen, making them lightweight, effortless, and easy to wear.

There’s no denying that Dôen-inspired style is everywhere right now. The appeal goes beyond the pretty prints and feminine silhouettes—it’s also about the effortless wearability and natural fabrics that feel practical during the warmer months. While I love the brand’s aesthetic, some of the price tags can be a bit steep. So, I rounded up a few look-for-less pieces that capture the same vibe but without the investment.

1. Sezane Zelira Dress, $190 First picture.
2. Sezane Nouri Top, $125 Second picture.
3. Sezane Pointelle Tank, $40 Third picture.
4. Sezane Pointelle Gina Tank, $40 Fourth picture.
5. DISH Annabel Dress, $170 Similar to the Nessie dress.
6. Madewell Blair Top, $88 Almost identical to the Henri top.
7. Madewell Babydoll Dress, $88
8. J. Crew Cotton Puff Sleeve Top, $88 similar to the June top.
9. Le Bop Gingham Babydoll Dress, $178 similar to the Julia dress.

I stopped into the new Aimé Leon Dore flagship in Los Angeles this week, and the space is incredibly well done. The chic boutique features a café and Greek yogurt bar tucked in the back, making it feel more like a lifestyle destination than a traditional retail store. The kind of place where you want to browse, sit for a bit, and actually linger awhile.

Have a great holiday weekend everyone!

Ann Mashburn Button Down // Amo Jeans // Flabelus Mary Janes // Casetify Phone Case

The other night while getting dressed for dinner, I reached for a blue-and-white striped button-down with white jeans, but the outfit still felt like it needed something. A pop of yellow was exactly what would have pulled everything together. I immediately ordered this cashmere sweater from J.Crew to drape over my shoulders all summer long. It adds just the right amount of color while still feeling classic and effortless. Here are a few other yellow pieces I’m loving that can instantly brighten and elevate a summer wardrobe.

1. J. Crew Cashmere V Neck Sweater, $148
2. Kerri Rosenthal Yellow Cotton Patchwork Sweater, $248
3. Doen Yellow Cashmere Cardigan, $368

I recently gave in to the pull-on pant trend and now I’m wondering what took me so long. They feel like a polished upgrade from the cozy Aviator Nation sweatpants I immediately throw on the second I get home to cook or lounge. The difference is these feel elevated while being just as comfortable. Lightweight and easy to wear, they’re perfect for the warmer months ahead. I rounded up a mix of high and low options below — including the pair I recently purchased and have been wearing nonstop.

1. Closed Ramilla Pant, $295 I bought the xsmall, they run big. I love the little front pleats.
2. Sold Out NYC Pant, $255
3. Donni Pop Drawstring Pant, $218 Above picture.
4. Jamie Haller Boxer Pant, $450
5. Leset Kyoto Carpenter Pant, $280

The new grocery concept from the team behind Laurel Hardware, called Laurel Supply feels less like a grocery store and more like a curated lifestyle destination. They did an incredible job with the space. Everything I tried was genuinely delicious, and unlike Erewhon, it feels designed for lingering and the kind of place where you want to sit, stay awhile, and hang out.

It was a busy weekend full of all the things that I love. Friday night was spent cooking dinner at home — I made my easy meatballs recipe, which is always a favorite. Saturday consisted of some shopping at Larchmont Village, followed by dinner at Carmel and a comedy show at The Groundlings. Lastly, Mother’s Day started with yoga, followed by brunch with the family, and wrapped up with dinner at my favorite spot, South Beverly Grill. After getting dressed throughout the weekend, I realized there are a few gaps in my spring/summer wardrobe. Right now, I’m shopping for another blazer with a lighter feel for the season, chic everyday sandals, and easy daytime dresses that still feel polished. Here’s what I’m thinking about getting.

1. ME+EM Feminine Sleeve Blazer, $590 I love the cream color way.
2. ME+EM Straight Fit Jacket Italian Cotton, $590 Chanel vibes.
3. J. Crew Textured Lady Jacket, $298
4. Doen Daphne Mini Dress, $328

6. Banana Republic Cotton Maxi, $190
7. Fendi Logo Slide, $790
8. Fendi Leopard Sandals, $995
9. Jamie Haller Double Buckle Sandal, $595
10. Jamie Haller Pool Slides, $595

The Great just dropped their summer collection and there are a lot of nautical nods, which I love! A few standouts are this fisherman laceup cotton pullover, red sailboat tank, sailboat lodge cotton cardigan, and college sailing sweatshirt.
