August Must Haves

August is the perfect time for poolside lounging, pretending summer won’t end, popsicles and (our favorite) peridot! This month’s must-haves are equally split between the blissful ignorance of summer’s end and looking forward to fall. It’s key for the stuff you stock up on now to carry over into the quickly approaching new season, and we think these August fashion must haves do that just right. And, in celebration of August’s birth stone we’ve added a few touches of peridot green.

Peridot & Onyx Ring – A dash of peridot for August birthday girls. We like this onyx and 18kt gold deco ring with peridot accents. One commands attention in the center, while more encircle the onyx’s joint to the ring!

Alice + Olivia Polka Dot Blouse – These darling dots are playful, just like the last few weeks of summer should be. The light chiffon keeps it fresh for the dog days of summer, in a sunny color to boot.

Sam Edelman Cowboy booties – Lollapalooza heralds the last of the big summer music festivals, but these boots – the concert footwear du jour – are here to stay. They’re sweet with summer sundresses now, and will be just as perfect with skinny jeans, leggings or tights when fall rolls around.

A fun bag in a fresh color – This grass green Gucci bowler has a sporty shape that plays well with summer’s always changing activity. It’s the perfect shade of summer time green, and the touch of gold hardware complements the warm tones of green perfectly.

A pretty Maxi dress – one that can take you from patio lounging and brunching to the last round of summer weddings filling up your calendar. This Tbags printed number is perfect for both. A black & white palette keeps the look sophisticated while the draped sleeves make it super versatile. Sandals or stilettos completely transform this dress either way.
