SUMMER LIFESTYLE EDIT: QUIET INTENTION FOR A SEASON OF SLOWNESS AND SUN
There’s something sacred about summer—the way it invites us to retreat, to wander, to remember what it feels like to live in rhythm with the world around us. It’s a season that asks for less, and gives more in return. Long days stretch wide. Time seems to dissolve. And in that gentle suspension, we find space to reconnect—with nature, with simplicity, with ourselves.
In celebration of this shift, we’ve curated a small but thoughtful collection of brands that capture the essence of a slower, sunlit life. These are not trends, but tools—objects crafted to accompany you through sun-drenched hours, quiet rituals, and barefoot evenings. Together, they form a portrait of intentional summer living.
Vipera
Vipera bags blur the line between accessory and sculpture. With clean silhouettes and tactile finishes, their pieces are both functional and quietly bold—made for those who appreciate design with depth. Whether slung over the shoulder on a city afternoon or carried by hand on a coastal escape, these bags hold more than just belongings—they hold intention.
Lorna Murray
A sunhat can be utilitarian—or it can be art. Lorna Murray’s handwoven creations fall squarely into the latter. Each piece is sustainably made by artisans, shaped with pleats and subtle geometry that nod to architecture and craft. Designed for travel, made to last, these hats frame not only the face but also the mood of a slow summer day.
Bamford
More than just activewear, Bamford offers garments designed for presence. Each piece is made with natural materials—organic cottons and breathable knits—that move with the body and soften with wear. Rooted in a philosophy of holistic well-being, Bamford reminds us that clothing can be both elegant and elemental, supporting our movement while honouring our stillness.
Hartford
With a design language that blends French charm and Californian ease, Hartford has long mastered the art of relaxed sophistication. Their linen shirts and lightweight separates feel like garments you’ve always known—worn-in, well-loved, ready for morning markets and impromptu swims. It’s clothing made not to impress, but to inhabit.
A Fan Of
In a digital world, to hold a fan is to reclaim the tactile. A Fan Of reimagines the classic hand fan as an object of style and story. Crafted from sustainable materials with artistic flair, these pieces blend functionality with nostalgia. More than an accessory, they become part of your summer ritual—whether at a garden gathering or in a still, silent moment under the sun.
Monili Mosconi
There is a particular kind of beauty that comes from restraint. Monili Mosconi’s jewellery embraces that philosophy, offering delicate, barely-there pieces that shimmer like fragments of memory. Each necklace, bracelet, and earring feels like a talisman—small, thoughtful, and deeply personal. They are not meant to steal attention, but to quietly keep you company.
Summer is not just a season; it is a philosophy. These brands remind us to choose with care, to surround ourselves with pieces that hold meaning, and to return—again and again—to what feels essential.
This is our summer story. One of less noise, more feeling.
And of the quiet beauty that lives in the everyday.
