I'm a Shopping Director—10 Spring and Summer Items My Stylish Mom and I Think Are Wildly Chic

Just like legit everyone else out there, my mom and I are also gravitating toward Adidas sneakers. The SL 72 is the front-runner for my mom with the retro silhouette and fun colors, including this trend-forward pale-yellow pair. Yes, I told her that wearing these sneakers will make her look like a fashion person.

I've been talking about slip skirts a lot recently—a spring staple that hits on the romantic trend. J.Crew always has strong options, including this gorgeous knee-length style. The sheer lining at the bottom brings a forward twist that sets this skirt apart. It comes in a range of colors, but I suggested the pink to my mom.

The coveted $25 H&M linen-blend pants are back! This style sold out last year, but my mom is thrilled she can order now for this season. Many of my co-editors own the pants (and rave about them) because of the comfort and effortlessly chic silhouette. The versatility is also noteworthy. As I mentioned to my mom, you could dress them up with a button-up shirt and flats or wear them with a swimsuit on vacation.

It's the season of the jelly shoe. I repeat: It's the season of the jelly shoe. I spoke highly about the Vince mules in the last installment of my newsletter (also featured above), and my mom bought them immediately. I showed her these Chloé sandals that the fashion crowd can't get enough of for a different vibe, and she adored them. She loved the lower heel and ankle strap for an extra level of comfort. Oh, and they also come in beautiful blue and pink hues.

This is a dream ring. It's certainly an investment but a style that can be worn daily. Everything in Chanel's Coco Crush range is breathtaking, and this ring is no exception with the signature quilted motif. As I mentioned to my mom, it can be worn on its own but also would be pretty stacked with other special pieces.

I've featured this cool Reformation sweater a few times in my content because I enjoy the color combination with the butter yellow (an It hue!) and blue stripes. Style it with jeans and sneakers for an easy look or tie it around your shoulders with a blouse and skirt to switch it up. And yes, this one is in my mom's cart already.

Get ready. Peplums are coming back. The silhouette dominated the fall runways, and there are already stylish picks in the market now, like this striking cardigan. While $70, it's quite expensive-looking with the elegant silhouette and gorgeous buttons. I have it styled with a skirt and sandals below, but it can also work flawlessly with jeans or trousers.

The Bottega Andiamo continues to be one of my favorite bags. It is literally perfect. My mom dreams about the smaller style in the burgundy color. It's small enough for everyday use, and as my co-editor who has it said, it fits so much. It's also eligible for Bottega's Certificate of Craft, which is a complimentary care service. It's totally a forever bag.

Linen is a must for spring and summer. In addition to the drawstring pants above, this linen-blend vest also tops my list because it's modern and very chic. It feels high concept with the design but is so easy to style with jeans and your favorite shoes. It's guaranteed to earn compliments, and the price is right.

I spotted a friend wearing this Coach piece on Instagram and gasped. It's unbelievably chic, with its collarless silhouette and statement buttons. I told my mom that this find would make her wardrobe feel even cooler.
