It’s officially summer, and the heat is on.
And when I think of summer? I instantly think of Italy.
Picture it:
Gelato in the shade. Strappy sandals on cobblestone streets. Long, slow lunches. And of course—effortless, beautiful clothes.
One of my favorite little games is recreating those dreamy Pinterest-worthy looks using second-hand designer clothes. I search for pieces that feel straight out of an Italian summer moodboard—but without paying retail prices.
Think:
☀️ Light linen and soft cotton
☀️ Relaxed, lived-in silhouettes
☀️ Vibrant colors and joyful prints
☀️ Pieces that feel luxurious, even when you're just running errands
Whether it’s a vintage silk skirt, a designer blouse in the perfect shade of tomato red, or an airy cotton dress from an independent brand, these are the looks that make you feel like you’re on vacation—even if you’re not on a Vespa in Rome.
That’s the magic of curated secondhand fashion: you get the style, the story, and the savings.
Ready to build your own Italian-inspired capsule wardrobe?
You can shop affordable designer fashion that feels like a getaway—without the plane ticket.
With sunshine,
