The ESSENCE team has been hard at work rolling out our four cover stars Usher, Damson Idris, Russell Wilson, and our “Of The ESSENCE” cover star Big Sean. Our team overall has a bit of a shopping problem, so we thought it was a good idea for all of our savings accounts to tell you what’s in our carts instead of hitting checkout. We’ve been scrolling never-ending pages of store sites filled with the best fashionable offerings.
From SSENSE to Farfetch to brands like Martine Rose and Luar, we’ve found the spring-summer pieces of our dreams. We’re just letting you have first dibs since we’re responsible spenders (some of us) in this economy. A few members of our team have been denim-obsessed while others are leaning towards light layers and quality basics to add to their wardrobes.
We believe we have excellent taste and welcome you to shop our selects while we wait for the right time to hit checkout.
Keep scrolling to see what’s in our carts.

Y/Project Invisible Tank Top
Kerane Marcellus, Fashion News Writer
“I live in tank tops during spring and summer. This Y/Project tank with it’s invisible straps give me elevated basic vibes and that’s what my wardrobe is mostly built on.”
“If you haven’t heard of Meji Meji yet, then you’ve been missing out! I love a graphic T-shirt and love the way the sleeves are shorter like a baby tee.”
“All winter I’ve been wearing button ups, dress shorts with tights, ties, and more. This is an oversized button up I can wear in so many different ways. I have a cropped button up that I wear all the time, and a regular fitting one. An oversized one completes my collection!”
“It’s the eccentric shape that captured me. I think this Staud bag would be perfect to throw on for brunch, summer parties, and beyond. I need to pull the trigger soon.”
“I’m usually drawn to sneakers since I am a former track runner. I would like to take the plunge on these because I am into the black hue and the sporty detailing.”
