My 63-Year-Old Mom Is Aware of What’s Trendy Before I Am—51 Items She Foresees Everyone Will Be Wearing in July.
I reluctantly admit there are two undeniable truths about my mom. First, she possesses an extraordinary talent for identifying what will soon be deemed "cool" in fashion well ahead of its mainstream emergence. Second, she's nearly always correct. Fashion has always come effortlessly to her, and with over five years in the industry—first in retail and later as an e-commerce stylist—she has a profound grasp of what people desire to wear and how they prefer to wear it. Although I don't typically seek her advice for shopping, many of her friends do. They frequently consult her before making purchases for themselves or their children. So, as a new month began, I thought it would be enjoyable to ask her what she believes fashionable individuals will be looking at or purchasing in July and share her insights with Who What Wear readers. Within a day, she curated a beautifully crafted selection that included everything from the trendy Dragon Diffusion bag, ideal for pairing with a flowy dress and flip-flops in the Hamptons, to beaded flip-flops expected to be popular with vacationers in Ibiza this summer. Keep scrolling to discover her over 50 exceptionally chic fashion finds for the summer.
