SUMMER 2025 | CHLOÉ CRANE-LEROUX
The Carefree Issue
Letter from the Editor
As a kid, the last day of school felt like magic. The final bell would ring, and suddenly a whole world of freedom opened up: bike rides until sunset, popsicles on the front porch, bare feet in the grass. Summer meant possibility—unstructured, playful, and deliciously slow.
Somewhere along the way, that magic faded. But this year, we’re reclaiming it. We’re embracing what summer was always meant to be: playful, unstructured, and deliciously slow. Carefree is your invitation to step out of routine and into a rhythm that feels lighter, softer, and more connected.
Inside the issue:
Chloé Crane-Leroux gathers friends for a golden-hour dinner inspired by summer in Italy
Bobbi Brown shares her no-fuss rituals for feeling beautiful and grounded
Camilla Marcus serves up a backyard lunch that celebrates simplicity and the season
A supersized summer reading list curated by our community
Plus pasta recipes, vintage shopping tips, easy beauty, effortless style—and more ways to live freely this season.
Read the digital issue for free here or head here to order your physical copy, a must for poolside reading, if I do say so.
Let go of the pressure. Say yes to joy. This is the summer of carefree.
Lots of love,
Camille
The Summer 2025 Issue
Available in Print
We heard you—there’s just something about holding a magazine in your hands. The EDIT is always available to access for free digitally, but we’re excited to offer a print-on-demand option for those of you who love the feel of a page. We’ve made the magazine as affordable as possible—the price covers what it costs to produce, and nothing more.
A Seat at Her Table
Camille sits down with Chloé Crane-Lerous to chat slowing down, living with intention, and the dreamiest Mediterrean-inspired summer menu.

We polled the audience for your most pressing summer wellness questions. From the truth about protein to actual go-to summer meals, our nutritionist has your answers.
Raise a Glass
It’s the summer of spritz—no alcohol necessary. We’ve got three simple spritz mixes so you can whip up a refreshing drink at a moment’s notice.
How to: Vintage
Finding vintage finds for your home can add the perfect layering element—but it can also overwhelm. We head to Round Top with Claire Zinnecker to find out how it’s done.
Summer Reading List
We asked readers to share their ultimate summer books and the result is a syllabus you’ll want to savor.
Lessons from the Garden
Camille reflects on lessons learned from the soil, seeds, harvest—and lack thereof.
