The May Style Edit: What Everyone’s Wearing Now

Welcome to the May Style Edit with my recent finds and some new favorites 🌸 I’m so happy to have you here, whether you’ve followed along for years or we’re just meeting. I’ve discovered some truly special pieces lately that I just had to share, and some of these are so new they haven’t even made it onto my website yet!

This month’s edit has everything from what’s new on my rolling rack to a few highlights from our favorite brands. I’ve rounded up all the pieces currently on my radar. So, consider this your go-to for what everyone is wearing right now, including a few most-requested styles, and some new favorites I think you’ll love. This is everything that made the cut for May, starting with pants you won’t stop wearing. Hope you find something you love!

P.S. I’ve been working on something special with my daughter Emily, and here’s your first look! We started a Substack called Susie & Em Unfiltered. We’ll be covering wishlist-worthy finds, hotel recommendations from two people who take where to stay very seriously, trends worth knowing about, and what it’s really like to work and travel together. Think different decades, same taste, zero filter. Subscribe here!

This time of year, I always start dreaming about a trip to the Hamptons, Nantucket or any other charming little beach town. You know, the kind where coastal dressing feels like a way of life. Well, just yesterday, I was browsing Tuckernuck finds to see what to pack for Memorial Day. Of course, a few things caught my eye. Then, I discovered some great new arrivals at J.Crew and ended up bringing several pieces home. Keep reading for some summer essentials that are easy to wear all season long!
