Summer is fully underway, and June seemingly sped by. With our senior fashion editor at men's fashion week in Paris, our editor-in-chief recently returning from Cannes Lion, our social strategy lead taking a much-needed vacation to Puerto Rico, our managing editor always clocking in outside in Long Island, and me just getting back from a family trip to Mexico City, it's safe to say that team Coveteur has been indulging in the season. And, when we're not on the go, we're certainly lapping up the warm weather because, before we know it, it will be fall and then winter—and we'll surely be complaining about the bone-chilling cold.
As we’ve been bopping around, we’ve been relying on a few particular fashion and beauty items to complete our looks and keep us looking fresh on planes, trains, and in the summer heat.
Ahead, the fashion and beauty picks that carried team Coveteur through the month of June.
Fashion:
St. Agni Pinstripe Relaxed Cocoon Dress
"All I want to wear during the sweltering heat are sheer cotton dresses. This one from St. Agni earned me so many compliments when I wore it in Cannes. The simplicity of the silhouette, super-skinny straps and the tie-front makes it the perfect dress to thrown on and instantly feel chic and put-together." - Faith Xue, Editor-in-Chief
Bottega Veneta Andiamo Medium Intrecciato Leather Tote
"I've been eyeing this bag for months now and am so close to pulling the trigger. The rich chocolate shade, intrecciato leather, slouchy-yet-structured shape and androgynous feel make it the perfect bag for work and play (plus, it's large enough to fit a laptop)." - Faith Xue, Editor-in-Chief
Hunting Season The Column Statement Necklace
"I'm loving the wooden jewelry trend for summer, as I think it pairs perfectly with the light hues that I tend to gravitate towards during the season. I'm thinking I'll style this chunky necklace with a white tank top and coordinating white jeans to give the simple combination a bit of intention." - Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
Liffner Satin Clutch
"I've been seeing satin clutches pop up all over my social media as of late, and I'm truly obsessed with the way they add unexpected texture to any look. This Liffner one, in particular, has that effortlessness that I seek out in a handbag—just spacious enough for the essentials, easy to carry from day to night, and statement-making, of course." - Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
Matteau Frill Cami Mini Dress
"With the heatwave in full force, I'm staying cool with barely-there mini dresses, like this one from Matteau. It's easy to dress up or down depending on what the day brings—I'll be dressing this down with strappy sandals for weekends out East." - Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
Verafied Belted Tote Bag
"This is the bag I keep recommending to everyone. The shape is timeless, the belted detail is such a nice touch, and it fits all my everyday essentials. It's one of those rare finds that feels far more expensive than it actually is—it has that elevated, designer-inspired feel without the hefty price tag." - Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
Stone Fruit Core Ring
"I love jewelry that feels unique without being hard to style, and this ring checks every box. The sculptural shape catches your eye, but the mother-of-pearl keeps it timeless. It's quickly been my go-to." - Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
Almina Concept Oversized Shirt
"This is one of those wardrobe staples that really just works everywhere. I’ve been wearing it to the office layered over tailored trousers, but it’s just as easy to throw on over a bikini at the beach. It has that effortless, throw-on-and-go feel—honestly, it makes total sense why Kendall Jenner has been seen in it." - Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
Carel Paris Soleil Cut-Out Ballet Flats
"No exaggeration, every single time I have worn these shoes out of the house, I get complimented on them. Surprisingly, they're also my most comfortable Summer shoes. I must immediately get more shoes from this brand." - Natasha Sheridan, Social Creative Lead
Carolina K Malla Dress
"This dress was the perfect thing to pack for my trip to Mexico City. What sold me the most is the precious mother or pearl detailing along the skirt. While this color-way is sold out, I have my eye on the blue sailboat print, strapless ivory, and green and white stripes." - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
Nothing Headphone (a)
"Headphones should be fashionable, too! These Nothing headphones are perfection and, dare I say, better for phone calls than my Apple headphones." - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
Tieks Silver Screen Ballet Flats
"I love a silver ballet flat and was desperately in need of a pair—then, I found these. After the initial break-in period, these are so comfortable. I wore them while walking around Mexico City with my family and felt the cutest!" - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
Dean Davidson Mini Tokyo Chain Anklet
"It's anklet season, everyone! This one is perfect: not too chunky and not too dainty. It has remained on my ankle since the day it arrived at my doorstep." - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
Melissa + GANNI Kitten Heel Thong
"I was shocked by how comfortable from the first wear. These have quickly become my shoe of the summer and the leopard print provides the perfect edge." - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
CHIMI Lilah Sunglasses
"I've been on the hunt for the perfect oversized sunglasses, and I've finally found my pair. These wrap around the face perfectly, and I have yet to wear them out and about without receiving a compliment! And, they're also co-signed by our senior fashion editor!" - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
"My favorite sunglasses at the moment are the CHIMI Lilah sunglasses that I just picked up in Paris. They are big, buggy, and wrap around perfectly for a sporty look." - Ella O'Keeffe, Senior Fashion Editor
Balenciaga City Bag in Atlantique
"I have been traveling Europe with this Balenciaga City Bag for the past two weeks and I’m so glad I have her. I love the summery blue color which surprisingly goes with more than expected, plus it fits my laptop and all the necessities." - Ella O'Keeffe, Senior Fashion Editor
Christopher Esber Scarf Draped Halter Top
"Scarf tops are very in this season and for good reason, and I love this cotton striped halter version from Christopher Esber. Keeps everything held in and is so flattering!" - Ella O'Keeffe, Senior Fashion Editor
Attega Studio Swan Dress
"I have been wearing this dress everywhere and love that it can go from running errands in flats to dinner in heels. The silhouette stands out without feeling restrictive, which is a must in this summer heat." - McKenzie Stoute, Editorial Assistant
SAME Hammer Pearl One Piece
"I usually gravitate toward bikinis, but this one piece won me over. The cut is classic and the gold hardware gives it an edge." - McKenzie Stoute, Editorial Assistant
Beauty:
Prada Touch Cream-To-Powder Blush
"This is my new favorite blush for summer. The packaging is adorable and the shape makes it easy to toss in my bag for touch-ups, but it's the formula that steals the show: the velvety formula magically blurs and adds the perfect tint of color (I'll swipe it on my lips, too)." - Faith Xue, Editor-in-Chief
EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46
"No matter the time of year, you'll find me wearing this sunscreen. But during the summer months, it becomes my most trusted companion. I have mini versions in every purse to ensure that I can reapply anywhere I am. It's lightweight and doesn't clog my pores. Plus, it gives my skin the perfect hydrated glow without feeling oily." - Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
Susanne Kaufman Arnica Body Oil
"I've never been a body oil person until this one came into my life. It's perfect for hydrating the skin after a long day in the sun—the oil melts right in, like my skin is drinking it up, and doesn't leave a sticky residue. It also has a very (very!) light scent that smells fresh and clean." - Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
The Ordinary Lash Curl Finisher
"I barely ever wear makeup, and when I do, I often skip out on mascara because it feels too heavy for me. That's why I immediately clicked purchase when I saw The Ordinary's latest launch: the lash curl finisher. It helps hold curled eyelashes in place without coloring them. The formulation is unlike any other clear mascara I've tried; it feels like there's nothing there!" - Jordan Rossman, Managing Editor
Chantecaille Bio Lifting Concealer
"I always gravitate toward makeup that doubles as skincare, and this concealer does exactly that. It melts into my skin, delivers beautiful coverage, and leaves my under-eyes looking hydrated and refreshed instead of cakey." - Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
Mane Hydration Hugs Detangling And Frizz Fighting Leave-In Conditioner
"This is one of those leave-ins that makes my entire routine feel easier. It smooths, detangles, and fights frizz without ever feeling heavy. I love how it leaves my hair feeling." - Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
Alo Hypochlorous Clarity Mist
"This has become my summer must-have in this heat. I keep it in my bag and use it throughout the day—it instantly refreshes my skin, helps calm everything down, and gives that clean, just-cleansed feeling without needing a full routine reset." - Kala Herh, Social Strategy Lead
iS Clinical Extra Strength Active Peel Brightening System
"Normally, at-home peels scare me, but I've never gotten such instant results from a product. I used it before bed and woke up with literal glass skin. My skin stayed glowing for days, and it genuinely felt like a complete reset for my skin." - Natasha Sheridan, Social Creative Lead
Brunel Pearl Glow Body Oil
"The biggest perk of this product is the no transfer. I have countless body oils that stain my clothes, or worse, stain other people's. But this glow is long-lasting, and if it makes me look like Jasmine Tookes even 1 degree more, I'm sold." - Natasha Sheridan, Social Creative Lead.
Nexxus KERAPHIX Liquid Crystallizer
"I was sold the second I saw it claimed to make hair 34x stronger after just one use. Miss Christina Aguilera definitely influenced this purchase, and she was not kidding when she said she loves this product. I've already noticed a visible improvement in my damaged, split ends, and now I'm really curious to try the rest of the line." - Natasha Sheridan, Social Creative Lead
YSL Kiss Shaper Long-Lasting Sculpting Lip Liner
"I hate to admit this as a beauty editor: I had never worn lip liner in my life until I attended a YSL masterclass earlier this month. There, I was introduced to their Kiss Shaper lip liner and have never looked back. I'm obsessed with literally all of the colors, but I reach for the Cocoa Flirt the most. It provides the perfect pout!" - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
Medicube Booster Pro X2
"I'm a Medicube girl through and through. And yes, the Medicube Booster Pro X2 is indeed better than the original. I've committed to using this daily, and I'm shocked by how well my products absorb. I was recently on a flight with a sheet mask on, taking advantage of the new mask mode!" - Bianca Asare, Associate Editor
Evian Natural Mineral Water Facial Spray
"Pretty much the only thing keeping me alive in this European heat wave is Evian water in a spray bottle kept in the fridge. Simple and effective, especially when paired with a fan!" - Ella O'Keeffe, Senior Fashion Editor
RŌZ Santa Lucia Styling Hair Oil
"This time of year it's almost impossible to leave the house with styled hair and expect the humidity not to get to it. This oil actually works, my hair stays shiny and doesn’t frizz throughout the day. It's an all-in-one product and I love that." - McKenzie Stoute, Editorial Assistant
MERIT The Base Set
"When I'm at the beach or walking around all day in the summer I always like to have core touchups in my bag. This set is the perfect size to use on the go and the combination of the products creates the perfect glowy base." - McKenzie Stoute, Editorial Assistant
