Dear July, we've been waiting for you!
We don't know about you, but here it's our favorite month :) The hustle and bustle of the start of the vacations, the terraces filling up, we enjoy the fine weather, the barbecues, the moments of relaxation with our loved ones. The longer days are ideal for getting together with family and friends.
July this year also means sales on the Côte d'Azur - a first for us! Especially since you know our opinion of sales... ( and if you don't, we'll explain it all here )
So, to make sure you're at the top of your game, we've selected a few nuggets for a crazy summer!
FLAX ON THE BEACH ...
For this new season, Laurence Carroy has created a "sous le soleil" collection dedicated to the beach and pool, with flashy colors to give our summer a boost!
The team fell in love with this magnificent embossed linen and the XXL beach towel, which will set the French apart from all the other foutas.I love it already!
SIMONE & GEORGE
Continuing with beach accessories, it's impossible not to mention Simone & George and their famous "Neo-transat": a revisited beach chair that takes up no space and is easy to transport. All you have to do is unfold the canvas, slip on the sticks and contemplate the sea. Adopted here several seasons ago, it's also a great gift idea. I know who to give it to!
La ceinture du marin
It's making a comeback in our boutique and we've missed it. A chic & casual accessory combining the sea and French quality. Fashioned from marine rope, all you have to do is tie an overhand knot (one loop right side up, one loop left side down) and you're done!
And the little newcomer: the sailor's bracelet, with its real shackle, which will dress up your wrist with elegance. Always handmade, and in Vence too. Go for it!
L'Atelier D'Ernestine
Natural jute rope, ancestral know-how (crochet), a resolutely modern approach, and lots of love: This is how Ernestine bags are made. We love the natural style of 100% ecological, biodegradable rope, combined with the elegance of vegetable-tanned leather.
A must-have summer bag!
New at the tearoom!
The tearoom has had a makeover. For those of you who have been here recently, have you noticed? We've welcomed new interior furniture (chairs & tables by Maison Alki): a mix of solid oak, beech and steel.
And our terrace has also been enlarged to welcome you even more comfortably.
Spring is over, and now it's time for summer on your plates!
Teach your kids about seasonal fruits and vegetables with this magnetic seasonal chart. Bye bye raspberries, strawberries, carrots and cabbage / hello peaches, melons, tomatoes and watermelons!
* It's as fun for the little ones as it is instructive for the grown-ups. Great idea!
It's back!
Umaï's after-sun routine
In summer, you need to take even better care of your hair: the sun, salt, sand and chlorine attack and weaken your hair. That's why Umaï has created this special summer routine, based on Oyat des Dunes de l'Île de Ré: a shampoo + an after-sun mask for healthy, shiny, supple hair. And right now, with the purchase of a Umaï shampoo + after-sun mask, the after-shampoo treatment is free.
Bermudas for men!
When the weather's nice and warm, there's no need to get stuck in jeans or pants! Here's our selection of men's Bermuda shorts: in denim, cotton canvas or linen. Pair with sneakers or espadrilles for a total summer sportswear-chic look!
Great!
For the first time in four years, L'Atelier Français is having a sale. No, no, you're not dreaming. We're selling off our last units to make room for new items. You'll find Slip Français, Gentle Factory, Ector, Belle Personne, Aatise and more...
I'm going to have a look!
