Summer is here, and with it the essential beach towel, suntan oil and raffia bag to enjoy the sun with your feet in the sand. Here’s a selection of seven must-have items for lazing by the sea or relaxing at the pool club.
The Hermès picnic basket
For the perfect outdoor lunch or snack, the picnic basket from the French house is the ideal object. This hand-woven wicker bucket with smooth brown bullhide leather details was imagined by Hermès studios and painter and designer Arielle de Brichambaut. Made in France, the item includes a complete set for outdoor dining: four crystal goblets from the Intervalle collection, eight porcelain dessert plates from the Soleil d’Hermès line (featuring a summery yellow and white pattern), four sets of Attelage dessert cutlery and washable pouches for plates and cutlery.
The Loewe beach towel
Loewe is offering a cotton beach towel with the iconic Anagram motif, in the classic 95cm by 170cm size. The most popular house in the second quarter of 2024, according to the Lyst search engine, is offering this piece in navy blue, riviera sky blue and beige. Perfect for strolling on the sand in style.
Celine beach tennis rackets
After lazing around in the sun, a game of beach tennis is always a good idea. For this, choose Celine rackets, made from slightly pink beech wood and adorned with the brand’s logo in brown. The black rubber ball is stamped with the name Celine Paris. To carry them? A brown calfskin strap with a gold finish. Everything you need for a resolute game of beach tennis.
The Saint Laurent raffia bag
This Saint Laurent maxi tote bag in natural raffia is a little jewel of craftsmanship. The item is entirely crocheted by hand, which requires exceptional craftsmanship, with a more transparent central yoke. The bag features a large YSL logo in luxurious light bronze brass, details in plant-based textiles and an inner chain that allows you to adjust its volume. A raffia glasses case is also included, removable thanks to a long chain. Perfect for storing all your belongings for an afternoon at the beach club.
The Jacquemus hat
A summer tan, yes, but no more sunburn! This Vela Jacquemus hat, from the La Casa line, is your best ally for protecting yourself from the sun’s rays and staying comfortable on the beach. With its flared bob shape, the unisex piece in raffia features a label with the brand name and “80073 Capri Na Italia”, Dolce Vita oblige. What we particularly like is the folded effect on the side of the hat, which adds a touch of originality.
Louis Vuitton mules
Comfortable and feminine, the Bom Dia flat mules in beige and brown have been revisited for the summer season in raffia embroidered with the Monogram motif and with two straps. The anatomical insole adapts to every foot, while the outsole is made from lightweight rubber. The front strap adjusts with an engraved gold buckle, while the second strap closes with a Velcro fastening.
Lancaster sun oil
Protecting your skin is no longer a piece of advice: it’s a summertime must to avoid a host of dermatological damage and health problems. Lancaster’s Sun Beauty dry oil spray, with SPF 50, helps protect your skin while giving you a tanned complexion. Bonus: the body is subtly golden and satin-smooth.
