Bold and bonkers
Never has the saying ‘dress to impress’ been quite so apt, and the beautiful Anita sunglass from A-Morir is just the right blend of bonkers styling and wearability. Beautifully embellished with turquoise, orange and amber Swarovski crystals, they’ll turn heads for all the right reasons. Handmade by designer Kerin Rose Gold; the Queen of the bedazzle and eyewear designer to everyone from Beyonce to Lady Gaga, Anita is a statement-making masterpiece that are guaranteed to bring nothing but joy.
The cat’s out of the bag
When prints and bold colours are used liberally on apparel and accessories, it’s nice to be able call on an ophthalmic frame with a little juxtaposition. The Celine CL50092I
style may have a subtle milky pink hue, but what it lacks in colour, it makes up for with volume. Chunky acetate and oversized construction fit the ‘in excess’ brief perfectly.

Blanket approach
Outdoor concerts, festivals – remember those? With alfresco celebrations back in full swing, you’ll need to be prepared. Bring the party to your picnic with this beautiful 70s inspired Roebury picnic and beach blanket. Big enough for friends, fizz and the finest of spreads, you’ll be the envy of fellow partygoers. Oversized, water resistant and super stylish – it’s a summer essential.
The evil eye
Having not worn much jewellery for the past year, it’s time to stack your wrists, neck and hands with reckless abandon. Find comfort in the weight and metallic jingle of rings, layered necklaces and oversized earrings. These hand-painted ear adornments by Oculo London are pure pleasure; evil eyes, colour and gold trim – they’re an affordable addition to any outfit and who knows, the evil eye talisman may even bring some good luck? Priced from £19.
Keep ’em clean
Kirk & Kirk is renowned for its incredible use of colour in eyewear, but its lens cloth collaborations are worthy of equal admiration. This delight was designed by Brighton-based artist and designer Sarah Arnett and is an explosion of colour and mystical fantasy. Her creations are experiments in pure escapism, each one opening a space for the viewer to become immersed in the colourful world of the imagination, something we all could do with a dose of.
Putting the fun in functional
The quilted jacket is a trend that is set to stay and for good reason. Light enough to pop over a t-shirt on a warm day, but cosy enough to keep the chills at bay, these perfectly padded little coats are a style staple. This jacket by Brora is brilliant; printed with pretty florals in copper and indigo, cropped at the waist and framed with a classic round neckline. A definite summer staple.
