My friend and coworker, Shannon, recently made a Pinterest board which I believe she described as her “if someone made me spend $1000 on clothes today” wish list. With that inspiration in mind, I created a $1000 wish list of my dream summer wardrobe.
Raise.com is a new site where you can buy and sell discounted gift cards to places you shop. The gift card options seem limitless, and include Sephora, Zappos, and Nordstrom. Raise.com recently reached out to me about “Closet Swap,” a summer inspiration series that they are hosting (swapping out your closet for summer – get it?), and this is my contribution! With gift cards purchased at a discount and my penchant for only buying things on sale, this $1000 wish list for summer would cost even less – perfect.
- Alice and Olivia AIR Striped Tee Dress, $165 – Perfect French summer style
- Kate Spade Perforated Crossbody Bag, $248 – Hands-free and bright for summer
- Louise et Cie Leather Wedges, $129 – At just over 3 inches, these aren’t too tall for everyday
- Maison Scotch Botanical Print Scarf, $46 – A little foray into the summer floral trend
- Soft Joie Circei Dress, $128 – Love the color, and this would be great for work
- Kendra Scott Rayne Necklace, $80 – Yes, this one is still on my wish list
- Baublebar Cairo Ear Jackets, $28 – Currently waitlisted, but hoping these are back in stock soon
- Rag & Bone High Rise Skinny Jeans, $180 – Apparently Rag & Bones jeans are the best ever
- Total: $1,004
