If you aren’t familiar with SSENSE, let me introduce you. SSENSE is an online retailer that specializes in high end luxury goods and street wear items. This Canadian based company has made quite the name for themselves since 2020, and they have some of the best deals I have seen. I would consider myself a very light luxury consumer, as I am always considering what to purchase at the best price.
SSENSE often runs sales and private sales on huge designers such as Gucci, Saint Laurent, Off-White and more, at discounts I can’t seem to find anywhere else. Right now, I have gone through and found my favorite picks from shoes to dresses, and what I recommend snagging before it sells out. During these sales, things go fast.

As someone who wears primarily sneakers, I struggle finding this right sandals to wear when the weather heats up. From strapping to chunky, open toed shoes are going to be the backbone of my wardrobe especially living in Texas.
I have been eyeing these sandals all season long, and have included my favorites for beach days or a night out.
Puffed Sandals
This was a trend from last year that has carried in the spring and summer months. Such a classic, elevated basic that goes perfectly with jeans, trousers and more.
Mix different materials into your outfit by including a satin pair of slides. This colorful pair is from Cult Gia.
Colorful Heels
Tired of wearing the same nude sandals every time you grab dinner and drinks? Try adding color in your shoes opposed to your clothes.
This shoe comes in four colors and is by Gianni Bini.
Errands Sandals
Want a slightly more elevated sandal besides a pool slide to slip on as you leave the house? Tkees is the best option. These are so comfortable and can be worn it’s almost anything.
Pool Slides
These cloud slides have taken over the internet at the casual slide of the summer. The waterproof, platform sandal is perfect for the beach, pool, etc.
Definitely the Pinterest shoe of the summer, the bandana sandal has been seen everywhere on social media, and will be not being going away this season.
There are many dupes of these, but the original are from Arizona Love.
Minimalistic Sandals
These. Shoes. As someone who is almost afraid of wearing color, I am obsessed with these. SENSO never misses.
Chunky Dad Shoes
While these are definitely an acquired taste, these Ganni sandals are at the top of my list. These come in so many colors and are so easy to style. And, they are from a sustainable brand.
With restaurants and bars starting to open back up you may be thinking… what do I wear out? It has been a long time since everyone has gone to a bar or out to nice dinner, and since early 2020 style has changed tremendously. Fashion evolves so quickly, and with that comes with the uncertainty of what to wear out.
I have styled outfits from some of my favorite retailers such as SSENSE, Shopbop, ASOS, and more. Each outfit made for a different occasion, but all supposed to make you feel confident for hitting the town this summer. Shop them all with the links below and via my LIKEtoKNOW.it .
I have always wanted T.J. Maxx to make a website and since COVID hit they finally have made the transition to e-commerce. They have the best prices, but honestly it takes a lot of digging to find great things there. But when you find something, you strike gold.
I have done the digging for you by making a mini T.J. Maxx catalog of things that you need. Some of these are more “higher end” products that are super hard to find at these prices.
Like many others, I have spent an embarrassing amount of time on TikTok since we began quarantine in March. I love the idea that everyone’s for you page is tailored to their liking as it works similarly to a live Instagram explore page. Very much like my explore page, most of the TikToks that come up are retail related. Whether that be a styling video, a haul or even a small business, fashion TikToks are what I love to consume and what many others love as well. Here are my top twelve fashion-related accounts I think you should follow right now.
Every month I recap things I have been loving from food to podcast. All links will be down below, and similar items will be linked if the original is not available.

I have a difficult time tanning my face, so this serum adds a little life back into me each morning. Highly recommend mixing this with Drunk Elephant’s Vitamin C Serum.

Rectangle Sunglasses
Easy, super wearable shape to wear on your face or head. I have a Quay pair that is no longer sold, but these Free People sunglasses are very comparable.

Trader Joe’s Individual Matcha Packets
I don’t really drink coffee due to its high acid content, so tea is a much better option. These matcha packets are from Trader Joe’s but can also be purchased on Amazon.

Daily Harvest Ice Cream
Being dairy free and gluten free can suck so badly sometimes, but THIS makes it not so bad. I have been purchasing Daily Harvest since January, and they just came out with ice cream and I am obsessed with it. All clean ingredients and taste just like the real stuff.

All I have to say is I put this on before I went to bed, woke up in the morning and it was still on. Buy it off here.
