So many of you have scooped up this colorful striped woven bag from Gap, and I completely get the appeal: on-trend, joyful, feels-like-vacation, and under $60. I’ve also been gravitating toward colorful, slightly whimsical touches this season. This week, I found myself eyeballing this $20 yellow pair of sunglasses, this fun sardine bag charm, these asymmetrical and nautical beachy earrings, and this bright beaded necklace. I also love the smaller scarf version ($55) of my beloved Cesta pareo (seen above, currently in a waitlist situation) — would wear as a hair tie, or around a bag handle.
I did pick up this fun tomato hair clip this week — why not?! can’t wait to pair with all my red gingham pieces — and while we’re talking tomato, I noticed that a) Quince released an heirloom tomato candle (a Magpie reader wrote me: “what do they NOT make?” LOL) and I ordered to see how it stacks up to Flamingo Estate’s tomato candle, which I love and consider one of the best scents for summer; b) At Present has a whole range of vegetable/fruit oriented rope cord necklaces that are so fun, including a tomato one. My code JEN15 gets you 15% off!
Each of these items pack a lot of punch despite price tags under $100.
