098: new arrivals
summer aesthetics, resort 2027, and what i bought this week
Hello and good evening dear readers. I wanted to publish this three days ago, but my schedule has been very hectic in the best way.
SO much launched this week. There’s a lot to discuss. This is a very long post, so you may want to read it in browser or in the app.
Here’s what’s new:
Courtney Grow x Refromation
Courtney Grow collaborated with Reformation to create a fantastic summer collection. The styling is spectacular. I need the details on the earrings and bangles in the image above.
I ordered the raffia clutch, the tee in both colors, the sequin dress, the Geffen flip flops, and the Zoe Sage sandals, which feel very Prada Spring 2003. Also notable are the vibrant satin blue, green, and purple accessories.
My package was delivered yesterday, and I’ve included my thoughts on everything IRL behind the paywall in this post.
Eckhaus Latta x Mango
Love this collaboration so much. The designs feel current without trying too hard. There are two silk dresses that stand out to me in silhouette and fabrication.
Great handbags as well. I’m also really curious about this metal one. It reminds me of The Row Imogen Tote from last summer, and we’ve seen Gimaguas lean into the trend as well.
This skirt feels very Dries Van Noten adjacent to me. The back detail of the grey and blue dress is to die for. This ribbed knit skirt in vibrant orange sort of reminds me of the texture of a mini short from Jacquemus a few summers back, and would look amazing with this polo top.
Kind of bummed these sunglasses sold out already. They are very on the nose for the shield trend, but feel a little different than what we’re seeing everywhere else.
Phoebe Philo Collection E
Another banger collection from Phoebe. Notable items include the sporty flip flops, gathered flats, black silk cape, which I NEED, and a high-waisted bikini that is already sold out. I’m also loving this HI towel, which feels reminiscent of her 2017 Céline x Peter Miles blanket.
Summer of Staud
Staud is doing great things for Italian summer vacations with their Da Adolfo collaboration, inspired by the beloved seaside restaurant in Amalfi only reachable by boat. The collection is full of quirky fish motifs and la dolce vita-ready pieces, celebrated with an influencer trip and party at the restaurant alongside NET-A-PORTER.
In my opinion, the hero piece is this plaid raffia tote, which is a NET exclusive.
Aimé Leon Dore Women’s Capsule
ALD debuted their women’s line, featuring the kind of classic sporty silhouettes the brand does so well. Highlights include knitwear, shirting, adorable swim shorts, and a stunning croc-embossed suede bomber that is officially on my wishlist.
Camp Crew
J.Crew is having a Wet Hot American Summer. Rooted in nostalgia, the campaign stars Victoria’s Secret Angels, while much of the photography recalls the aspirational lifestyle imagery of Bruce Weber’s early Abercrombie & Fitch work. The collection centers on the brand’s rollneck reissue, styled over swimwear in the spirit of an idealized ’90s catalog. Ringer tees, terry polos, and dolphin shorts in primary colors round out the camp classics. The highlights of the collection for me are the 1998 Montauk tote and crochet shorts.
Lizzie Fortunato High Summer Collection
Made for long weekends, seaside dinners, and anywhere summer happens to find you. The focus is island glamour thats feel equal parts vacation souvenir and statement piece. I’m in awe of the sea glass Lita Necklace and I already added the Museo Cord Necklace to my cart.
Savette Pre-Fall
The new collection is an exploration of woven and tactile materials and the new forms they inspire. Notable pieces include a macramé pouch, raffia tote, and their iconic symmetry pochette in a soft green suede, as well as an expanded silo, the ‘trapeze’ in cotton canvas.
Moda Operandi Resort 2027 Trunk Shows
Resort 2027 collections are now available to pre-order on Moda. Highlights for me are Khaite, St. Agni, and Shannon Bond.
From Khaite, we’re seeing a sort of Saint Laurent-esque silk print situation with stars and hearts. I’m personally excited about this cord belt, velvet top, and chiffon skirt. There is also a lot of fur happening. Really like this cape over silk for winter holiday parties.
From St. Agni, I’m excited about this silk fringe skirt, jacquard cocoon coat, and leather pom-pom bag, a motif that’s showing up throughout their accessories. I’m noticing this trend more since Phoebe’s cluster earrings and the pom-poms earrings from Chanel Spring 2026.
From Shannon Bond, the bangle and tassel necklace are standouts. I love her line and wrote about it a few months back in a Half Baked post. I’m also into the Ophelia earrings. The name is very popular right now. I would not be surprised if we see a spike in baby names. Shakespeare is having a moment. Please see Hamnet if you have not yet.

Other Things of Note
DL1961 Hamptons Residency
In honor of their summer collection of coastal essentials, DL1961 is hosting a Hamptons Residency. I was there Thursday to check it out and wore the June pullover, shrunken tee, and Taylor barrel jeans styled with my Warby Parker sunglasses, The Row Signum heels from last summer, and a vintage Elsa Peretti x Tiffany cuff and ring.
I spent the day relaxing drinking Ghia spritzes. I enjoyed a lymphatic massage, made an anklet with Don’t Let Disco, and had a life changing tarot card reading. More on this to come.
HART Jewelry on Bleecker
HART Jewelry is now on Bleecker street. They celebrated with an opening party in collaboration with Lilly Sisto. You should pop in to check out their summer charm collection. I’m eyeing the Sun Medallion, Frog Charm, and Chartreuse Enamel Bezel.

What’s on Sale
NET-A-PORTER is offering an extra 10% off. I combed through and pulled my favorite pieces. Some are included in the additional discount, some are just great deals. You can shop them all here.
The Nour Hammour seasonal sale is back. Shopping off-season is often my strategy for getting what I want at a price I’m willing to pay, though there are some wear-now suede pieces that would be incredibly chic for summer, like this wrap skirt. I could see it styled with a cream halter top and minimal sandal. Personally coveting this olive suede coat for winter. You can shop all my sale selects here.
What I Bought and Thought
My latest Vivrelle rental is The Row Small Park Tote in black suede. I think suede is SO chic for summer. I’ve been carrying this tote for the past few weeks, but it’s about to go back. It could be yours next. Your first month is on me with code STYLETOAST.
As I mentioned, I have some pick ups from the Courtney Grow x Reformation collection. I’ve long admired her style, so this was very exciting for me.
The beaded flip flops are a dream come true. I was between the maroon and black colorways and ultimately went with black because they fit more naturally into my wardrobe. However, I am exchanging for a half size up. I cannot wait to wear them all summer.
The raffia clutch was something I felt was missing from my closet. It’s actually larger than I expected and kind of reminds me of a cosmetic bag in silhouette. I think that’s an advantage, especially for travel. You could fill it with hair products or sunscreen during the day, leave it on the hotel counter, then carry it to dinner and drinks at night.
The sequin dress is a vacation stunner. It would look gorgeous for dinner by the beach. Very sexy mermaid energy. Ultimately, I’m returning it because the color doesn’t quite work with my skin tone and I truly have no summer beach plans aside from visiting family in Florida. I’d rather put that budget elsewhere.
I also treated myself to the suede Prada-adjacent sandals with incredibly high hopes.
