I'm so excited that my travel story on Puerto Escondido, Mexico, is out on Goop today, replete with secret must-visit spots, the chicest (read: only-in-the-know) places to stay, and, of course, everything cute I packed, which includes my new collab cover-up, above, with Julie Harrah! Read all about it here!

Last weekend my sister floated into my house in the slinky white dress, above, which oozed with hang-loose, summer-day energy. It looked like it could be Khaite or Staud, but, no, it was a $89 Zara! I'm now convinced that not only is a white dress essential for the summer, but many of them are, including the Farm Rio, below, which is seriously stunning on!

Considering how unseasonably cold it's been in LA, it's reasonable that I'm still interested in knitwear. I found some more affordable options, like the M&S, above, and the Anthropologie, below,

I'm totally appreciating Mango's new summer offerings from the eyelet mini, above, that looks spot-on vintage, to the Khaite-spirited rhinestone-studded flats, the fringed skirt, and the coordinating print set.

My (already robust) stockpile of swimsuits is expanding rapidly, thanks to Left on Friday, which makes suits that work from the sea to (New York) city! Because the current trend has the swim/street lines blurred, I have no qualms about sporting a bikini top under a blazer or a one-piece with jeans. Especially when the swimwear is remarkably comfortable and super flattering. My sister and I took Left On Friday's new punch collection out to play in Coney Island, and the suits rose to the occasion. Proof here!

Being a twin has myriad benefits, including a built-in best friend, a longer life (according to a Danish study), and a wardrobe, squared. To build our shared closets, we typically buy different pieces that we can swap and swap again. Our strategy succeeded this morning at the just-launched, half-off sale at Matches, with my purchases of this do-it-all denim Chloe dress and the Sea New York, above, right--all new for summer! Meanwhile, she went in a completely different direction and landed on the under-$500 J.W. Anderson tote, below (which I will likely have to pinch when she's not looking!) and this Wales Bonner denim skirt. Shop it all HERE!

This just-out Veronica Beard jacket executes a nearly impossible task: to work beautifully in the most disparate places from a casual perch under a palm tree to a buttoned-up boardroom! I'm obsessed! I also love this anywhere-anytime look!

$59, zara

Exactly like the chic custom-made sandals I scored in Santorini years ago and wore into the ground!

There was a time many years ago when Pixie Market, a tiny East Village boutique, felt like my own little secret. I'd never leave empty handed and always with refreshingly affordable pieces that looked distinctly cool. When I walked by the store the other day, I was delighted to see that it had doubled in size since my last visit, brimming with even more stylish offerings. Today I discovered that the best of Pixie Market, including the sleek $100 dress, above and the statement bustier, below, is now available at Shopbop! My secret is officially out!
