Hasta La Ideas

Stripe it rich this summer with the perfect lightweight sweater to throw over all you favorite shorts and capris, or even a bikini, after a long day at the beach!

J.Crew’s stripebreaker sweater is one of our favorites. In this season’s preferred graphic of bold stripes, it’s offered in two color combos … a nautical inspired navy and cream as well as a honey yellow and cream.

Made of airy cotton, the classic crewneck is updated in a boxy, shorter shaped silhouette making it less preppy, but rather edgy and cool.

Surely a piece you€™ll wear again and again from the summer straight into fall.

Who – Melimeli was the first to add the J Crew stripebreaker sweater to the Hive.

We’re lovin’ these geometric-shaped, hand-carved wood rings so much because you can choose to wear one at a time or throw on all three for a funky look that shows off your style.

Plus, there were no animals hurt in the making of them … or at least we assume they weren’t. But that’s not the point. What we’re trying to say is – they’re some pretty fab digit jewelry so why not get them and show ’em off while you dial a number into your iPhone?

Well, it turns out that’s not the answer, so don’t worry. Seersucker is just a thin material with crinkles and stripes that happens to be great to wear during the summer. The origin of the word has a lot of history behind it too, but that is a whole other post. All we’re saying is–we like these pants and we’re sure they’re going to look darn cute on you.

Who Found It – SusanY was the first to add the ‘Mini Pant‘ to the Hive.

Just like their extremely popular line of men’s and women’s eyewear, these shades are vintage-inspired, easy on your checkbook, and with every pair purchased, a pair is donated to a charity dedicated to promoting entrepreneurship in struggling communities. Think of them as ‘TOMS’ of eyeglasses.

One particularly stand-out shape that we’re totally diggin’? The Griffin frame. Like the description on the site says, Marty McFly would think these sunglasses were, like, totally awesome in his Delorean and puffy vest.

The unisex vibe makes the girl sporting them look like a bad a**! So much so, you might need to hide them from particularly sneaky boyfriends, brothers, or roommates. The keyhole bridge is a cool detail and the shape is almost universally flattering.

Wear these glasses and channel your inner Bueller. Bueller? Bueller.

But alas, there needs to be some kind of balance and one way to do that is with a toned down shirt like this one by J.Crew.

Don’t worry, it’s not like we’re telling you to wear a boring top. This one is made from a soft silk that looks flowy and soft on your skin. Plus, it’s great to wear with fun, flirty skirts and unbuttoned over a maxi dress. You seriously can’t go wrong with it so why not throw it on and get to shining in your DayGlo. We know we will.
