What the coolest NYC girls are actually buying this summer
Top 10 items. Your summer cheat sheet (+ receipts).
Summer is FINALLY HERE ALAS.
Cue the frantic search for strappy sandals and puffy flip-flops under your bed, the ceremonial un-crumpling of last summer’s baby tees from Brandy and other TRR-orphaned treasures once deemed too skin-baring for winter, and the existential dread of realizing half your wardrobe screams June 2022 (lowkey us). And maybe there’s nothing wrong with that!
Yes, we love a sentimental reunion with last year’s showhorses (hello linen co-ords), but let’s be real: Nothing heralds a vibe shift quite like a few new strategic pieces (and beauty products) to get us excited and hopeful for the months ahead. The season of dopamine dressing, last-minute rooftop plans, and “just going for a walk” in a full look has officially returned.
Welcome to our latest Selleb Edit: 10 things the chronically cool NYC girls are actually buying right now for the summer, aka the stuff that we know will make their way to your TikTok FYP and IG Explore (Remember, you saw it on Selleb first ;)) Whether you’re jetting off somewhere far-flung or staycationing in cutoffs and claw clips, we've got you covered.
Without further ado, here are the 10 summer-forward pieces & products that you should know about (but probably don’t…yet!)…
Good Weather Skin Sun Cream: For the girlies who don’t take their sunscreen lightly. Zinc-based mineral sunscreen — because your derm would throw you shade (;)) for using chemical SPF on sensitive skin. Mineral formulas are gentler and purportedly more effective, but the downside? They often leave you looking like a ghost in the daylight. Not this one. No white cast! (We can attest to this.) For the early adopters and skincare snobs alike: This sunscreen is it. Just launched, about as niche as you can get (at least for the moment), insanely luxe, and super DL…You will def be the first in your friend group to try this. You might even feel a bit smug reapplying in front of them too lmao.
Cheeky TikTok plug here bc, well, if we learned anything from our part 1 that went viral, it’s that people are obsessed with sunscreen (to levels we did not realize)…
