The Edit - Week 6

a paracord summer?

Jun 12, 2025

Paracord — yes, the rugged utility cord once reserved for camping trips and keychains — is having a moment (?). It’s working its way into fashion in the coolest, most unexpected ways. Think woven straps on summer bags, colorful cords on sandals, and hardware accents that feel sporty but still chic. It’s giving function-meets-fashion, and I’m into it. A little outdoorsy, a little Y2K, and the perfect touch to offset your more polished pieces

I feel like every time i scroll on IG I am being targeted with the Veronica Beard paracord sandals. At first, quick scroll - didnt even think twice about them. But once I was fed them for the fifth time, i stared. Maybe they arent so bad?

Fast forward to the next day im being fed similar paracord sandals from Ann Taylor. I cannot remember the last time i was ever on the Ann Taylor website, but her I was- debating pulling trig on these sandals.

These Veronica Beard sandals seem to be out in every size except mine, so maybe this is a sign?
I wish the Ann Taylor ones came in red but i do admire the similarity with the gold/silver tip on the straps
And these Haviana sandals will never be available in my size, and are slightly different in style, but I never fail to check to see if they want to surprise me with my size 11.

The accessories are also very very cute. I included the Dorsey paracord anklet below in my cart cuties- it actually just got delivered today hehe. But the items below have also gotten my stamp of approval for doing paracord right.

Petit Moments charm bracelet - has a cute shell for summer?
i lovvveeeee this éliou necklace but i need to sit on it for another week or so… i just dont know if i personally can rock paracord around my neck.
and lastly, the Miu Miu Gabardine pouch - to die for.
