Feeling Kind of ... Beachy?

Feeling Kind of ... Beachy?

Do you ever feel kind of … beachy?

Same - I do, too.

Luckily, our “Beachy Keen” favorites for the end of this summer bring the essence of the sun and the sand right to St. Louis. 

With notes of white tea and coconut, the NEST New York x Gray Malin Ocean Mist & Sea Salt Reed Diffuser transports you to the stunning shores of St. Barths without leaving your living room. Want it now (because, I always do)? NEST fragrances are available locally at Lusso Boutique, 165 Carondelet Plaza Clayton, MO 63105 // (314) 725 -7205 // https://shoplusso.com/.

Recline into your beachy-ness with Carl Hansen and Søns’ Deck Chair with Footrest. Noted as, “comfortable, functional and space-saving, the foldable design provides optimal comfort as well as a light and elegant expression.” Available at carlhensen.com ($1, 060).

 To occupy yourself in your ultimate state of beachy-ness, pick up your newest coffee table book: Life’s a Beach (Gestalten, 2021). Filled with inspiration from homes, retreats, and respites by the sea, buy a copy for your beach house, as well. Available at https://us.gestalten.com/products/lifes-a-beach ($50).

One thing is for sure: life can be a beach. So why not treat yourself with one or two or all our “Beachy Keen” favorites, to let the summer and the sun last all year round. But don’t forget about fall. Keep up with our #SophisticatedFavorites for the upcoming season with your own copy of SL: https://www.sophisticatedstlouis.com/mag/subscribe.
