This Timeless Pattern Is the It-Print of the Year and These 10 Pieces Prove It

Oh, sweet summertime : We’re so happy to have you back. After what feels like years of before-dinner sunsets, gloomy days, and chilly evenings, the sun is (finally) shining, the tank is clean, and we don’t have to don our parkas on our morning walks to Starbucks . And to commemorate the changing of seasons, we’re diving head first into all of the novelties that summer has to offer. If there’s one tried-and-true print that absolutely screams summer , it’s gingham. And if you thought that its moment came and went when Dorothy rocked it on the Yellow Brick Road circa 1939, you’re sadly mistaken. This centuries-old pattern is the epitome of timeless yet on-trend, and it’s one that we’re tapping on to help us celebrate seamlessly from our wardrobes to our homes and beyond.

This Is the Coming-Of-Age Novel I’ve Been Searching for My Whole Life

This year, I’ve made myself a promise to read more books and expand my taste beyond the rom-com and thrillers that I usually gravitate toward. Enter the coming-of-age genre. Though I love a good story about a teenager finding themself as much as the next person, they can sometimes be a bit, well, bland. And all too often, they center around the same types of characters experiencing a series of firsts—usually a girl entering her first romance with a guy followed by a sort of happily ever after.
