EDITOR'S NOTE
Welcome back. With the Fourth of July holiday *cue Natasha Bedingfield voice* so close you can almost taste it, there are many sales happening. Here are the ones our editors are shopping for those Big Stock Ups™:
Hill House Home. Use code HAPPY4TH for 20% off select styles. The brand rarely goes on sale, so we’re buying sundresses galore.
Allbirds. Get up to 50% off the trendy shoes that feel like walking on clouds.
Rifle Paper Co. From July 2-6, you can get up to 20% off items in their Getaway Shop. Expect giftable travel accessories, beach towels, totes, and more.
Banana Republic. Its Summer Sale lasts until July 9, offers up to 60% off sale styles, and an extra 20% off your order. Check it out for work-friendly basics.

Lands’ End The July 4th Event
The very back nostalgia brand is at it again.
Our obsession with Lands’ End’s comeback continues, this time with a July 4th Event calling for 50% off sitewide, 60% off two-piece swimwear, and 60% off clearance items. The sale lasts until July 7, but we suggest checking it out now before the shopping rush hits. Some styles too good to pass up: an adorable ruffled swim skirt, our editor’s beloved tote bag, these relaxed cropped pants, and a swimsuit that’s giving Reformation energy. Use code BOATDAY.
Three Totally Random Things
Here are three random products we’re loving this week:
The Original Bogg Bag
The wipeable, indestructible beach bag going viral right now. Did we mention it can hold up to six towels?
WearMe Pro Double-Bridge Sunglasses
$39 for polarized sunglasses never looked so good.
Flamingo Estate Tomato Bath Set
The original brand to do Tomato Girl Summer.
Strong Feelings
Certain shopping topics can really polarize the masses (raise your hand if you've ever been in a heated discussion about capri pants coming back). The latest debate in our Skimm Shopping group chat: Are the accented hair ties that were a hit in 2011 really a thing again? We’re breaking down two wearable options that are easy to style:
Zafino Charlie Hair Cuff ($27)
Why we love it: The knotted design is a unique way to change up an everyday messy bun or ponytail with minimal effort. The brand also has countless other styles to pick from.
Notes: Zafino’s hair cuffs are hypoallergenic, nickel-free, and water-resistant.
Amazon’s Gold Hair Ties ($9.99/3-Pack)
Why we love them: We saw an HQ’r wearing this hair tie set from Amazon, and it looked so luxe. She pointed us in the direction of this Amazon 3-pack. If you’re looking for a foolproof way to do your hair for an upcoming event, look no further.
Notes: There isn’t a guarantee of these being hypoallergenic. If your skin is ultra-sensitive, we suggest investing in Zafino’s nickel-free options. That said, if you’re wanting to try out the trend before fully committing, this set is a fantastic option.
