bring the Hamptons to your home!

Happy Friday! This marks the last Friday of July, which means you still have two more months of summer left to throw an epic Hampton-style summer party. Why the Hamptons? Because it’s the quintessential summer vacation destination to just relax, chill, and have a good time.

We thought we’d start today cheerfully with a fun and fresh Friday’s Favorite Five (Because who doesn’t like alliteration?). Here are the must-have items to bring the East Coast into your home for a chic Hamptons-style summer party.

1. Say “Yes way” to Rosé Roses

The quintessential drink of summer is now the quintessential treat of summer! Sugarfina brings you the refreshing taste of rosé into everyone’s favorite bite-size candy, because as they say, you can never have too much rosé!

2. Leave a Message

Seriously, will anything get your relax and chill vibe across more than the embroidered statement on this wide brim hat from Anthropologie? The message speaks for itself. This hat is perfect for any occasion, including a chic end-of-summer party, all while staying stylish and cool!

3. Sweet and Saucy

They say a party without cake or macarons is just a business meeting, and we have to agree. Our newest sweet obsession comes from California-based bakery Sweet and Saucy Shop. Their treats will add the perfect punch of “wow factor” into your life, as their sweets are so cute they can double as decor—if you can resist eating them!

4. Light and Airy

There’s a time and a place for dark, muted colors, but a Hamptons-style party is simply not it. Keep it light and airy with white and cream neutrals to achieve that cool, breezy feel on a hot summer day. By no means are we suggesting to stay away from color, just be sure to keep it cool and casual. Loving the idea of this Caroline Constas striped off-the-shoulder top paired with white skinny jeans and a cute sun hat.

5. Keep it Coastal

Use the textiles of coastal living to inspire you with accessories and decor for your Hamptons-inspired summer soirée. Think rattan, wicker, or even bamboo. This South Seas Bar Cart from Serena & Lily makes the perfect spot to arrange your cocktails and mixers.

Ready to celebrate summer’s end with some East Coast style? We are, too! Here’s to a happy and cheerful weekend!
