THE BEACH BOY
The essence of the beach boy aesthetic lies in its ability to blend laid-back beachwear with a polished, minimalist edge, ensuring that even in casual settings, you exude a sense of understated elegance and modern sophistication.
This season, elevate your seaside style with a slim-fit cotton oxford shirt in soft pink by Polo Ralph Lauren or a crisp white EKD-embroidered T-shirt by Burberry, combined with a pair of clean pastel pink Polo Ralph Lauren traveler swim shorts.
Choose between the effortless comfort of creamy white Birkenstock Barbados EVA sandals, the sleek sophistication of Giuseppe Zanotti Brett logo slides, or Zanotti’s bold statement of blue PVC logo-print slides.
Enhance your look with a thoughtfully curated collection of accessories that effortlessly merge sophistication with practicality. Start with the Off-White blue square-frame sunglasses for a striking pop of color that would pair perfectly with the PVC logo-print slides. Complement these with a Jacquemus Artichaut hat, adding a touch of artistic flair to your look.
Accessorize further with the M.Cohen mixed beaded bracelet for a bohemian edge and the David Yurman sterling silver deco chain link bracelet for timeless elegance. Keep track of time with the water-resistant Bell & Ross BR 05 grey steel watch, its sleek design offering a modern touch. For a rugged yet stylish finish, opt for the Guidi stud-embellished leather keychain or the Maison Margiela four-stitch leather keyring.
At the beach wrap yourself in the classic Burberry check-pattern cotton towel or the luxurious Dolce & Gabbana terry cotton guest towel. These high-quality towels not only offer superior comfort but also elevate your beachside experience with their distinctive designs and plush textures.
This selection guarantees you achieve a clean, minimalist, and sophisticated look, seamlessly transitioning from urban outings to beachside relaxation with effortless style.

THE PUNCTUAL VACATIONER
A little flashback to the early 2000s, as Ashanti would say he’s not always there when you call, but he’s always on time, and he’ll give you his all.

With an eye for style and a knack for punctuality, he balances sophistication with precision, making sure every aspect of his vacation runs smoothly and seamlessly.
Precision and style go hand in hand. Embrace the theme of timeliness with MC2 Saint Barth coffee and watch-print swim shorts, reflecting his punctual nature even in his swimwear.

Accentuate your look with the grey Valentino Garavani V-logo signature leather lanyard cardholder, and the Zadig&Voltaire love link leather keyring, to keep your essentials stylishly secured and conveniently within reach. As for footwear, opt for the grey Birkenstock Arizona slides, renowned for their unmatched comfort and sleek design.

For sun protection, opt for the green Burberry check reversible twill bucket hat and the MDSolarSciences Mineral Moisture Defense SPF 50 suncream. As for elegant eye protection , go for VAVA Eyewear’s green rectangle-frame sunglasses featuring purple details.
