Amazon Sundays: Summer Play Edit

This week’s Amazon Sunday is all about the activities I’m leaning on to keep my girls busy as school winds down and summer begins. Right now, with the weather so beautiful, they love being outside, so I rounded up a mix of toys and games they can play with by the pool, in the backyard, or out in the garden.

For days when it gets too hot, or when they just want to play inside, I love easy activities they can do all on their own. A few finds that get them thinking and creating independently, like tracing boards, sparkly markers, and colorful blocks. It’s a fun mix of outdoor play, creativity, and little learning moments to kick off summer break.

Every Outfit I Wore in May

DL1961 Top, Tove Pants, Ferragamo Heels, Janessa Leone Bag, Silvia Furmanovich Necklace (similar here and here)

May wasn’t quite summer yet, but the styling leaned that way from the first day. Tropical travels set the rhythm early — bold prints, raffia and straw, statement earrings, easy sandals — and those resort pieces kept finding their way into the in-between days at home. Citrus and orange ran through the first half, often layered with patterned pants and a bohemian, color-full ease. A softer 70s turn ran underneath in fluid shapes and prints that felt new again, and florals stayed close from start to finish. By the final week my Daily Looks felt fully summer-ready, and what’s still in rotation feels exactly right for where June is heading next.

Tops for the Season

Zimmermann Top, Pareo & Scarf, Sensi Studio Bag, Britt Netta Sandals

A great summer top might be the hardest-working piece in your closet this time of year. There’s no sweater to layer on top, no coat to finish the look. It has to stand on its own, which means it has to feel special enough to do exactly that.

It’s why a fresh rotation of tops feels like such a priority heading into the season. I think a lot about what’s worth adding to the mix, the kind I can pull on with the shorts, linen pants, and or a breezy skirt. A scarf print, a tie shoulder, a bit of embroidery, crochet, or raffia trim can make a top feel like the whole outfit, which is exactly the job a great summer top is meant to do.

Orange in the Sun

Every summer there ends up being one color that starts to define the season for me, and this year it’s shaping up to be shades of orange. It started showing up in the pieces I kept saving, and now orange has become the common thread running through the resort looks I’m pulling together for the new few months ahead.

There are so many shades to play with across an orange spectrum. Some pieces feel more reminiscent of coral, others tangerine, and some are closer to saffron or rust. That range makes the color feel easier to wear, pairing back to contrasting colors or other variations of the hue with ease. Instead of one loud note, it becomes a whole summer palette, working just as well in a small accessory as it does in the piece you build the whole look around.
