A HEADS-UP
This gooseberry-hued hat
from Loewe’s latest Paula’s
Ibiza collection is what
summer dreams are made of.
Certainly it’s what I’m wearing
in the fantasy version of my
life — perfect for sundowners
at Es Vedrà. £350; loewe.com
ROSE-TINTED SPECS
As a rule I steer clear of pink (it looks twee on me),
but I’ll make an exception for these sunglasses.
The perfect pick-me-up for a pared-back T-shirt
and jeans look, these Miu Miu shades are high-
summer heroes. £360; miumiu.com
PENCIL IT IN
Sure, your smartphone can help you find your next holiday and
book you a cab, but can it make you feel as happy as a new pack
of freshly sharpened pencils? Us stationery geeks think not. I’ve
chosen this set by the Portuguese company Viarco Classics from
Present & Correct, the London stationery expert that specialises in
vintage-inspired pieces. £12.50; presentandcorrect.com
BEST OF BRITISH
For those keen to own a piece
of design history, all roads lead
to Bicester Village, which is
hosting a British Fashion
Council pop-up until June 15.
Bringing together 18 of the
country’s most exciting
designers, the space is a
chance to shop pieces by
the likes of Richard Quinn, the
royally approved master of all
things floral. I’ll be on the hunt
for a shirt like this one. £158;
thebicestercollection.com
TOP TOWELS
The epitome of luxury is a Tekla towel. Indeed, the Danish fabric
experts have made status symbols out of them. Each towel is
made from 100 per cent organic cotton and is ridiculously soft.
The red and rose stripe is my favourite colourway. I’d love a
dressing gown to match. £60 for a bath towel; teklafabrics.com

STEP ON
There are less than five weeks (not that I’m counting) to go until
the gates reopen at Worthy Farm and the festival season gets
underway. But before you go panic-buying wellies for Glasto, the
walking boot is the smart alternative. Hunter’s Commando style is
built for putting the miles in (from the Pyramid to Shangri-La and
back again). £110; hunterboots.com
