The July Edit 2026
What I loved the most this month.
For much of this month, I was on the road traveling and with family. As my niece and nephew grow up, I want to make sure I soak up as much time with them as possible.
My husband and I started off solo in Crete before meeting a huge crew of family in Athens and exploring Greece. More on our trip details in a future post.
Crete was beautiful and a highlight for me when reflecting back on the trip. We loved our hotel and would stay here again in a minute.
This is the dress I wore on repeat all month long.
When my nails were painted, it was this color. A soft pink that stayed on well.
I begged family members to play cards for days with no one jumping in. Until someone suggested Five Crowns. It is a game my brother-in-law’s family plays regularly. They brought the cards with them, along with a scoring paper. This is important because you need to keep score. Once I learned how to play, it was addictive. I can’t wait to play again over Thanksgiving.
This magic wand has been a favorite. I use it on the heat function before bedtime as part of my beauty routine. For migraines or sinus days, I switch it to the cold feature. It was on sale as part of the Nordstrom sale and sold out.
These are the $95 sunglasses I wore on repeat.
Two vacation heroes I wore on repeat were this dress from Frank and Eileen, perfect over a swimsuit, and this white sweater.
Freddo cappuccinos were the drink of choice all July. Our Nespresso does cold milk, so I can make them at home.
If I only wore one sandal all month, it would be this one. So comfortable and the dark brown can be mixed with just about anything. Size up .5 size.
These face wipes came in handy while traveling to remove sunscreen, makeup, or just a refresh on a hot day.
We just got this braiser with a glass lid as a gift from Staub and cannot wait to use it now that I am back cooking. The green perfectly matches our Sabre flatware.
Chocolate brown is here to stay for another season, and I am here for it. This set from Paige is stunning. The cami and matching skirt flow beautifully. I ordered both in size 6.
Since I was traveling a lot, we didn’t watch much at all. Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed will get your blood pumping.
I can’t get enough of this weekend skin with SPF. All the colors are good!
What You Loved the Most in July
New Balance Shoes $80 on sale. Sizes are moving quickly.
Longchamp straw bag. I bought this one in Nice last year, and it is back in stock. I added a scarf on the handle for an added pop.
J.Crew Soleil pants in navy. These I own in multiple colors in size small
Magnolia Haze, the nail polish I have been wearing on repeat.
Chloe dress in navy from Tuckernuck. Travels well and is super flattering.
