Flamingo Estate Spring 2026 Seasonal Box
Flamingo Estate Spring 2026 Seasonal Box

Flamingo Estate’s spring 2026 subscription box is here, and we couldn’t be more excited. This year, the products are all inspired by the Goat Shed, a former shepherd’s hut where the team experiments with fruit, herbs and other botanicals from around the property. The box comes packed with nine limited-edition products that capture the best of spring at Flamingo Estate, including a Yuzu Magnesium Bath Soak and Petrichor and Sage Terrazzo Soap Brick.

SeaVees The Landing Boat Shoe
SeaVees The Landing Boat Shoe

We love a good boat shoe, and we love SeaVees. The California-born shoe company has been crafting classics for some time now, but they just released their new limited-edition Landing Boat Shoe, perfect timing as we approach the annual era of dock days and beach trips. Three-hundred pairs were hand-sewn in the Quoddy factory in Maine, crafted out of Horween leather with a custom two-piece upper pattern.

Chandon Spritz Collection

LVMH’s sparkling wine house, Chandon, just released a Spritz Collection that features two limited-edition flavors (Spritz Lemon and Spritz Berries) along with their beloved Chandon Spritz Orange. The former two are just 6% ABV (compared to the Orange expression, which clocks in at 11.5% ABV), making them the perfect for sipping on summer afternoons. They are incredibly crisp, light and worthy of keeping in stock all summer long. Trust us.

Ray-Ban's The Outdoorsman by Dolce&Gabbana
Ray-Ban’s The Outdoorsman by Dolce&Gabbana

The kingpin of Americana aviator sunglasses has teamed up with Italian fashion house Dolce&Gabbana to craft the perfect sunglasses for summer. The Outdoorsman pays homage to a classic Clint Eastwood-esque style with a little zhuzh from Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. Colorful lenses and slightly separated frames make the style stand out from the OG product.

JJJJound New Balance 475

We can’t recall a time we disliked a New Balance collab, and this new drop from JJJJound and the beloved American sneaker retailer is no exception. New Balance’s classic 475 style was reimagined in two stark colorways — one bright yellow and one crisp all black. The styles are sold out for now, but keep an eye out for a restock. Because these sneaks would pair perfectly with most spring and summer fits.

Vacation Buffing Bar

Soft Services’ best-selling in-shower exfoliator collaborated with Vacation Sunscreen Company for this gold-standard, full-service smoothing and sunscreen removal bar. It smells like Vacation’s iconic sunscreen, which basically means it smells like summer.
