June is Pride month! I was in DC last weekend and the city was all abuzz with energy (and all of the rainbows). Here in New York, it will be June 30th. I wear a lot of colorful pieces in my everyday life and a reader asked me if I could put together a rainbow roundup for Pride so here we are. So many good things… for Pride, or just for EVERY DAY if you are me.
Separately, while I loved putting this together, I don’t love the idea of profiting from Pride – that feels a little icky to me. (This post contains affiliate links; which means that if you purchase something I feature, I will make a small percentage of sales – kinda like a “finders fee.”) It is hard to track exact revenue by post so I made a $500 donation to The Audre Lord Project. There are SO many great LGBTQ charities but I chose this one as they are a lesbian, gay, bisexual, two spirit, trans and gender non conforming people of color center for community organizing, focusing on the New York City area. If you want to make a donation, you can do so here!
In the meantime, enjoy these wonderful colorful things – I will take one of each, please!
Rainbow Pieces – Clockwise from Top Right:
Pajama Top // Pajama Shorts // Wallet // Tretorn Slides // Rainbow Earrings // Button Down Top // Rainbow Skirt (plus size + also love the matching top!) // Fish Earrings // Pride Earrings // Chevron Dress // Rainbow Purse // Pillow // Heels // Bracelet // Sweater (plus sizes here) // Rainbow Star Dish // Barettes // Rainbow Tee // Rainbow Crop Top // Swingy Skirt

Such fun pieces! I actually don’t own any rainbow clothing items – I should get a rainbow tee, at least! ✨

Thanks Lisa, have a great weekend!
LOL! I’m wearing that BP rainbow sweater to work today… I think Wit and Wimsy posted it on her blog last week? Well I immediately ordered it. I tried it on last night after it came in the mail and my boyfriend goes “you look like you’re going to pride” LOL whereas I just like the colors!
Can confirm it’s a good purchase… for pride or just everyday! 🙂
Hahahaha it’s SO cute!!!! I really want to order it (and I love that they make it in a full range of sizes.)
Hi Grace,
I love how thoughtful you are and the fact that you made a donation even before getting revenue out of this post, I guess that is one of the things that really sets you apart from some other bloggers. Everything looks so fun but I specially love the chevron dress, the sweater and the slides.
Thanks Norma 🙂
I know I seriously want one of everything.
I love rainbows too and I wear them any chance I get. All those pieces are lovely, that long flowy skirt and the rainbow bag caught my eye.
Those were two of my favs as well!
What a great round-up!
I wore this to Boston Pride things; currently on sale and ranges in sizes xxs to 3xl 🙂

That is so cute! Love it!!!
Love your commentary about not wanting to profit off of Pride and the fact that you made a donation! I love your blog because you are so thoughtful, transparent, and real.
That is SO nice of you to say… thanks, Meg! x
There are some really cute rainbow Vans, too! https://www.vans.com/shop/checkerboard-slip-on-rainbow-true-white#hero=0 and https://www.vans.com/shop/womens-shoes/rainbow-foxing-old-skool-true-white amongst others!
So cute, thank you!
Wow, love that you made a donation to an LGBTQIA+ organization! Thank you! As a queer person, I also have mixed feelings about the commoditization of pride. But I also like having options for displaying my pride too ha!
Thank you Emily 🙂
Thanks for sharing all of these rainbow items, Grace! I’ve loved rainbows every since I was a kid. I had to buy the Michael Kors skirt and matching tee. Can’t wait until they arrive!
I’m so glad to hear that!
A late comment, just wanted to send kudos for this post! Love everything!
Oh good, I’m so glad to hear that!
So many gorgeous items! I especially love the swing skirt and dress!
