Fashionable finds to get your home summer-ready. (West Elm, Ruggable)

Ready to give your home a summer refresh?

Here at CandysDirt.com, we’ve got your back. From new designer collabs to Fourth of July sales, see our pick of the season’s best.

Justina Blakeney Opalhouse x Target

Here’s proof you don’t have to break the bank to give your décor an instant update. The Jungalow designer recently launched a seasonal collection chock full of eye-popping colors, patterns, and textures.

Pieces are designed to “bring comfort and joy,” according to Justina Blakeney.

“All the fabrics have great hand-feels, and I drew and painted all of the patterns by hand,” she said.

Case in point: a super cute beach throw blanket which doubles as a wall hanging.

Rhode + West Elm

This best-selling collaboration is back with an updated assortment of bedding, tabletop, and decorative accessories.

“The collection includes the most-loved pieces from last year along with fresh prints and patterns for a bright summer assortment,” said West Elm president Day Kornbluth.

We especially love the whimsical wiggle print, which adorns pillows, coasters, trays, rugs, and more. For those ready to make a bigger commitment, check out the brand’s botanical-inspired wallpaper designs.

Ruggable x the Hiltons

In a “Stars, they’re just like us” moment, Nicky Hilton told Women’s Wear Daily in an interview: “I have an antique rug in my living room, and, you know, I have three pets, three young children, and needless to say, that’s had lots of wear and tear.”

Turns out, the cleaning cost was pricier than the rug itself.

The next step was teaming with her mom, Kathy, to create a line of Americana-themed floor coverings for Ruggable inspired by the Hiltons’ family homes. Easy to clean and care for, everything in the collection is machine washable and stain-resistant. An added bonus: a 20 percent sitewide sale.

Diptyque x artist Alexandre Benjamin Navet

If a Mediterranean escape isn’t in the cards, bring the essence home with the French perfumer’s “hedonistic” new summer collection. Limited-edition pieces, featuring Navet’s colorful and expressive artwork, add to the allure.

The Citronelle candle – a mix of lemongrass, verbena, neroli, and orange blossom – is a must-have. You’ll also want the Lemongrass and Geranium body spray, which does double duty as a mosquito repellent.
