Neutrals exchanged for bright colors, dainty jewelry swapped with statement-making shells—the summer season comes with maximalism a plenty. This time of the year allows for an excess of kitsch and an affinity for a theme (if tiny fish motifs haven’t made their way to your social media feeds yet, let this be a PSA that many have coined summer 2025 as “sardine summer“).

My family has an ongoing bit about how I came out of the womb as a woman with particular taste. Growing up, my mom wasn’t allowed to choose my outfits. Instead, I meticulously styled everything that went onto my body beginning at the ripe age of two. I opted to wear dresses in lieu of pants, always sport a carefully chosen accessory (or five), and had one pair of shoes that you were my most prized possession: a pair of sheer, sparkly jelly sandals.

During a hot July day in the summer of 2023, my best friends and I were sitting on a boat playing a game. Each person went around the circle and explained how they’d describe each friend to a stranger who’d never met them. We laughed about the quirks that defined us that sounded ridiculous when you separated them from the whole of the person—“her accent gets 10x stronger after a second glass of wine”—and argued about the different ways we could depict each of our strongest traits.

I take after my mom in more ways than not. I’ve always resembled her physically, but now that I’m an adult, I can see that the traits of hers I tried so hard to bypass as an adolescent are the same ones I’m grateful to have now. I’ll always be happy to have inherited my mom’s ability to laugh at herself and the way she prioritizes her friendships, but perhaps most of all—I do owe my career to it—I’m glad I inherited her appreciation for style.
