I Live in the Hot and Humid South—Here's What's in My Very Full Reformation Cart

Nearly nine years ago, I moved to North Carolina, and I haven't stopped complaining about the heat and humidity since. From May to September, I basically live in tank tops, linen dresses, shorts, and sandals, and the brand that I shop more than any other during these sweltering summer months is Reformation. I wax poetic a lot about how great Reformation's inventory is year-round, but I think we can all agree that no brand does summer better than Ref.
I'm constantly adding items to my Reformation cart in preparation for my next order, and currently, it's chock-full of items to get me through the dog days of summer. Whether or not you also live in the South, I'm sure most of will see multiple days with temperatures in the 90s, and these Ref items are the ticket to staying cool and looking ridiculously chic. Keep scrolling to shop my favorites along with me. Trust me—these will sell out.
I own the denim version of this dress and love it so much that I think I need the linen now.
I'll take any of Reformation's linen shorts, but this is the pair I ordered.
For those days when it's too hot to think about what you're going to wear.
The other thing about summer in the South is air conditioning—so much air conditioning.
This won't really keep me cool, but it'll look cool with all of my breezy clothes.
