To be honest, I've been living in a lot of the same staples lately. We've been home for most of July, which has been so nice—just enjoying these slower summer weeks. Lots of carpooling to and from soccer, basketball, and swim. My summer camp mom uniform has been a mix of oversized tees, longer shorts, breezy button-ups, and easy slip on sandals. And swimsuits in-between!
That said, I do have a few great summer essentials to report back on. If you're in need of some really good basics to get you through this mid-summer hump, first stop: Sold Out NYC for tees, tanks, and this beat-the-heat skirt.
And for those evenings when you want to feel a little more put together, I've been reaching for a great knit tank paired with skirts, soft lounge pants, or my favorite boyfriend jeans. This is another one I've been wearing on repeat—for date nights, hosting friends, or anytime I want something that still feels easy and summery but a little more elevated.

Camp Drop Off, Errands…
The Look | Sunglasses. Tank. Lucy Delius Chain. Celine Bucket Bag (did a little search for summer camp mom totes—another fun color pop, this Prada). Jeans. Sandals.
PSA: The wash of these look really good!
Plaid Shirt. Jane Pope Box Chain*. Lucy Delius Ball Chain & Pendant.
Relying on my jewelry!
* JP Box Chain (JP’s annual 20% off sale is this week — code: JP2026ALICIA)
Another gorgeous jewelry brand to have on your radar: Lucy Delius. I’m obsessed—with this chain and pendant, and you can order the chain in a few different lengths.
I love the way Lucy layers these necklaces (as seen above). With a swimsuit on the beach... so good. And in general, I just love a chain that sits right at the collarbone. It's just as chic with a simple tee now as it is with sweaters come fall.
Everyone needs this linen tee. (I own it in black too—it’s that good). An absolute mid-summer staple. I love the longer sleeves and relaxed fit. It’s already oversized, so I’d take your true size.
I also recently picked up this skirt, and it’s ideal for those days when you don’t want to pull on anything tight but still want to feel instantly pulled together. I wore it to get my hair cut and colored the other day, and it was the comfiest outfit for sitting in that salon chair for... honestly, way too long.
Hot Yoga bound in a Jamie Haller Sweatshirt. Shorts. Sandals. To-Go Mug.
I finally splurged on these for hot yoga this summer because I was looking for a slightly longer length. They're worth it. The fit, the fabric, the length... Eres just gets it right.
Summer Nights… Or Hosting At Home |
The Look | Ball Chain. Tank. Skirt. Diamond Cuff*. Pitcher. Sandals. Flatware Set.
*so good in a bracelet stack! and included in the JP sale
Also, I’d like to note how good this print is in person. This skirt hits a little longer on me than I originally wanted, but I ended up keeping it because I love the orange and green together so much.
I'm wearing it with the tank I mentioned previously—a slightly dressier staple. I love the square neckline. It does run snug, so I sized up.
The Look | Sunglasses. Knit Tank. Blue Beaded & Ball Chain Necklace. Diamond Cuff. Floral Skirt. Celine Tote. Black Sandals (more sizes).
Another fun beaded necklace (and in the blue) similar to my black one that I can’t stop thinking about for summer layering!
