WHITE: Because the first day of June also happened to fall the day after Memorial Day. So bring on the all white ensembles and white denim. After a longer than usual Winter, it feels like May just flew by. And I don't know about you but I'm excited to GET DRESSED and do things.
Judging by Memorial Day Weekend at Wish and around town, it's going to be a busy Summer in Newport. There are a few things I am really looking forward to. But of course I'm also looking forward to the clothes to go with them, and helping you find outfits for your favorite Newport Summer activities too. Here are my Top 5 that I'm looking forward to now that it's nearly Summer (and I'm fully vaccinated):
1.Newport Film (especially a fan of their annual Picnic Contest)
2.Brunch (inside) at Stoneacre Brasserie
3.Rosé on the Lawn at Castle Hill
4.Oysters sitting at the bar at Scales And Shells
5.Walking The Cliff Walk Mask Free
Love the metallic of these Loeffler Randall Sandals, paired with this beautiful pineapple-lace maxi dress from Valerie Khalfon. And the Donna Dixon Gold + White Clutch perfectly ties the two together. It's a perfect combination for #3 (Rosé on the Lawn at Castle Hill).
And the Cloth & Stone Linen Pants below on the right for an evening at the beach or Newport Film. I paired them here with a T-Shirt from Amour Vert, but you could pair them with just about anything (white, colored, drapey, fitted) anything goes!
I can't decide if I like the J.Crew Glitter Mules better with this Bailey 44 Stiped Set (top, pants), or the Xirena Jumpsuit. What would you wear them with? Either combo would be great for that brunch at Stoneacre I've been looking forward to!

I'm already thinking about ways to sprinkle red and blue into this window as the 4 of July gets closer. That's when you know it's really summer! I guess maybe it's time to pull off the remainder of the daffodils on our sign from the April window, but they're just so happy!
I spend so much time styling the window in the shop and hear from all of you how much you love it. This year so many of you aren't able to stop by and get a closer look like you usually would. And I know many of you aren't in Newport in general so you're used to enjoying our Window content on Instagram and Facebook but I always feel like they should have a more permanent place online. Hope you enjoyed it too and maybe you even find something you love! As a thank you for supporting wish, which you do each time you come to our website, stop in, shop online, flip through our social media, tell a friend about us, etc. I'd like to give you a little discount on the items you saw and read about in this post.

Wishing you the most spectacular summer, maybe I'll even see more of your smiling faces! A note about Covid-19 and smiling faces: Wish (in accordance with CDC and State of RI guidance) is no longer requiring masks for shoppers who are fully vaccinated. Shoppers who are not fully vaccinated, do still need to wear a mask. If you're vaccinated but more comfortable in a mask, and more comfortable with me in a mask too, just mention it and I'll be more than happy to put mine on. Cheers to Summer! Stay tuned for evening or weekend Sip N Shops soon.
