After seven seasons in the Hamptons for Bravo’s “Summer House,” Paige DeSorbo can easily rattle off her local loves — from the Greek restaurant Calissa in Water Mill (where her reality crew goes for the “great cocktails and fun atmosphere”) to Milan-inspired Italian cuisine at Sant Ambroeus in Southampton (“There’s cute shopping around there, too,” she says).
The influencer — with 1.5 million followers on Instagram — grew up in the suburbs of Albany, before moving to New York City in 2015. But the Hamptons is where she found her “soulmate.” Nope, not her ex, Craig Conover. Hannah Berner! The former “Summer House” co-stars and eternal besties now share the mike on their hit “Giggly Squad” podcast, where they candidly and humorously talk about things like pop culture, dating, horoscopes and mental health.
“When people listen to us, I want them to take a break from everything in their lives to giggle,” says DeSorbo, 32. “Even if it’s just for one second, I hope we can truly bring them joy.” One thing she finds glee in is fashion — and her top muse is a fictitious fellow New Yorker. “I am Fran Drescher from ‘The Nanny!’” exclaims the one-time style scribe. “I love cute mini skirts and mini shorts with blazers. I like feeling put together in a chaotic world, and matching sets do that for me.” Here are other finds that always manage to make the star smile.
“I travel a lot so I’m obsessed with a bag that can fit all my essentials.”
“These are my go-to black flats. They elevate any outfit and are super comfortable.”
“If you know me, you know I love a minidress, and I feel like the ultra-minidress is all the rage this season. You heard it here first.”
“This beautiful photo book speaks for itself. Anything to remind me of Italy until I can book my next flight.”
“If you find me on my couch with this on, please do not disturb. [My cat] Daphne and I are resting.”
“I always find myself reaching for these glasses. They just go with everything!”
“When I first received this perfume, I was leaving for Italy with my family, and I packed it. I used it the entire trip, so the name is so fitting because it makes me feel like I am under the Italian sun, waiting for a lunchtime pasta.”
“I still can’t believe we wrote a book!”
“I own these in both gold [pictured] and silver. They are great quality and have yet to tarnish.”
“Thank you, [Rhode skin-care founder] Hailey [Bieber]. I don’t know how I ever survived without this. The rest of my makeup just goes on smoother, and my skin looks glowier.”
“Getting a cat has become my entire personality. Only the best for Miss Daphne.”
