If you haven’t noticed, seasonal changes seem to give our little city entirely new energy. A sunny stroll down Washington Street reminds us that having to endure a season of freezing weather is worth the pain and reassures us that we actually should not move south. Because, really, there’s nothing like Hoboken in the summertime, as more people {and puppies!} make their way out of their cocoon life, leaving fuzzy socks and winter parkas behind.

If we’re being honest here, the transition into summer is slow and gradual — as much as we wish it wasn’t — but that hasn’t stopped the stores on Washington Street from heading into full-force summer mode. There are so many must-buy items on Washington Street this season that you’ll have to make your friends drag you out of multiple local shops {even though you know you’ll secretly return sans-friends and with multiple credit cards — sorry, definitely not sorry}.

Wind-Up for Wedding Season

The other season we’ve entered is wedding season, and you can never be too prepared by grabbing gifts for your bridal besties. Just saying, those adorable “so you don’t get cold feet” socks would look great in a bride-to-be gift basket…

A Pooch’s Paradise

A pleasant surprise to also find some doggie digs in the back corner of the shop. PSA for all Hoboken pet-owners {or just pet-lovers} out there: these adorable buys actually exist, and there here in our town {and if you’re buying them for your pet, they still count as a gift}.

Fashionable Floatation

Trendy floats may have been all the rage last year, but this year, they’re at a whole new level. This summer’s selection at dear hannah, is on point – I mean just check out those ice cube trays. Because, let’s be real, whose champagne isn’t ready for flamingo-shaped OJ cubes?

Stitched Pillow Swag

The quality of these pillows makes these a steal! At around $30/piece for these stitched beauties, it’s an easy {and adorable} add to any girl’s bedroom {or as a BFF babe-to-babe gift}.

How could you pass up this adorable shaker filled with chocolate almonds — that look like martini olives?
