I’m sure most of you are already preparing for Memorial Day sales. If you’re anything like me then your cart is already full of items you want for the summer. To be honest, I have about 15 items in my cart that are just beauty products….oops! Is anyone else trying to expand their collection for the summer?

Anyhoo…the Chirpyest team is always on top of trends. This summer is all about bold colors and enhancing our natural beauty. So check out my round-up of 16 summer must-haves by black owned brands to make your summer more stylish.

My team at COCOCOZY ( also Chirpyest) is already discussing their summer obsessions. And it’s not even summer yet! I can’t even believe I’m writing about summer trending items already. The months are just flying by. So while we are still in spring for the next few weeks, it’s time to get a quick update about all things summer. There are so many new summer collections being released on a daily basis. It’s hard to keep up with what’s actually worth it. My team has narrowed down their favorite products that you need to carry you through the summer months.

There’s nothing wrong with treating yourself to a designer essential (or maybe two). A new season will be here before you know it, which means it’s time to shop summer must-haves. I’ve browsed numerous sites and researched with the COCOCOZY & Chirpyest team to find the trending items for summer to splurge! We included home decor, fashion, and travel items. Check out our picks below.

Here’s a Lululemon round-up of everything that I currently have in my cart. I’m trying to go on a daily morning walk to stay active. Living in California makes it a lot easier. I always enjoy the California weather. Since I’m working out almost every day that means I need new activewear. I recently did some online shopping at Lululemon. I need new leggings and was tempted to buy the trending belt bag. It’s important to look cute while you work out… right? LOL

Anyooooo…..check out some of my favorite finds from Lululemon below.

My Chirpyest team just told me that the trending colors for spring are lime green and Kelly green. So I went on a deep dive to find something green from my camera roll. I came across one of my photos from my trip a few years ago that I took in London. There was so much green decor and greenery! I don’t wear a lot of green, but I do love the color in interior design.

Last week I posted a blog post about Spring fashion trends.  Some of you DMed me asking for more spring finds. New fashion lines and makeup collections have already started to pop up, and home decor and interior design inspiration can be found literally everywhere. So here’s a round-up of finds under $99 that you need to get your hands on this season. From all things fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle see my round-up below.

One of the perks of owning a new shopping platform is that I get to see what items are trending for the new season. Some of the spring trends include neutral tones, groovy prints, and luxury crossbody bags. I’ve noticed a lot of people are loving the new Balenciaga spring collection. If you are someone who loved early 2000s fashion then you will be thrilled to know that it’s all coming back this spring. Accessories like platform sandals and vibrant shoulder bags have made a comeback. I have pulled some of the top items from Bloomingdale’s that you need to add to your closet. Get ahead of the new season with a fresh wardrobe of fun colors and stylish spring accessories.

And don’t forget that you can earn 5% cash back when you use Chirpyest to shop online.

I’m the type of California girl that wears a heavy coat and scarf when the weather is below 70 degrees. So I’m excited that spring is around the corner. It is one of my favorite seasons. It’s the perfect time of year for vibrant outdoor dinner parties. The fresh bloom of flowers makes for great centerpieces. Maybe, I’ll do a spring tablescapes blog soon.

Introducing my new series “What’s Currently In My Cart.” What started out as a quick browse on Nordstrom, turned into my cart being full of new items. I recently took a trip to Palm Springs and realized I need a new overnight bag. I’ve been eyeing the new MZ Wallace gym bag. I’m not sure if it will be big enough. Then, I started browsing their shoes because who doesn’t want new shoes? I narrowed it down to a few winter staples…so I thought. Somehow my cart has 9 items in it! How did that happen? See what’s in my cart below.

It’s time to add some new winter staples to your wardrobe. I just went through my closet to make room for some new essentials. Although, it’s great to stay on-trend each season. Current winters trends include sherpa accessories, oversized puffers, and the colorful Acne Studio scarf. I’m obsessed with these sherpa platform sneakers from Converse. However, investing in staple pieces is always the right move. Especially, if you’re cleaning out your closet for the new season.

Due to the pandemic, I really haven’t been shopping much unless they were items I really needed. Now that holiday shopping is behind me, I can finally prioritize shopping for myself. This is also your reminder to treat YOURSELF!

Recently I had a few friends attend a wedding in Santa Barbara. We talked about what they would wear at our gatherings and dinner parties. I wasn’t on the guestlist but was able to live vicariously through them.  They shared their dress ideas with me, which led to many hours of browsing the internet for the perfect dress. It made me realize that wedding guests have a lot of prep to do. If you don’t own any formal attire, then that means it is time to start shopping for a new look. The shopping process can be overwhelming for those who don’t love to shop. I’m exhausted and didn’t even attend the wedding!

Just in case you missed it, I was featured in Rue Magazine’s Fall 2021 Issue. I wanted to share some behind the scene shots from the photoshoot at my home. In August, a photographer came over, and he photographed my upper patio, primary bedroom, and my breakfast nook. It was a really fun experience. The hardest part was finding an outfit to wear. I wasn’t sure what kind of look I should wear. As you can see, I ended up choosing a pink floral Zimmermann dress. It was a perfect choice and I’m so happy with the way it turned out.

Fall fashion is my favorite. I can never have enough cozy sweaters, oversized jackets, and stylish booties. It’s important to invest in staples for the season. If you are going to splurge, then you should splurge on the right luxury items. Your wardrobe should have a balance of staple pieces and a few trendy items. Many people like to splurge on trendy items that just end up sitting in the back of your closest the following year because it’s out of style. Let’s all agree to stop being those people. Time to be a smart and stylish shopper for the fall season.
