Go Alfresco!
Wednesday, April 30, 2008The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and your bike just got a fresh waxing. There's no better time for a picnic! Take note of these five goodies, guaranteed to keep you lookin' fresh while chillin’ al fresco.
5. Top Shop’s large straw floppy hat will block the sun, which means you’ll have way more fun! Could there be a more choice color? I think not. Around $40.
4. Sneakers this adorable are hard to pass up. Pair these Paul Smith hi-tops with the jumper below and you’ll be the sassiest one on the grass, $290.
3. Charming in freshly-cut-grass green, the polypropylene “Carrie Bicycle Basket” is the perfect way to haul your grub via bike or foot. Thanks to its detachable straps, you can use it for cycling and shopping, $60.
2. Jumpers make picnics (and life) a whole lot easier. This no fuss, multi-pocketed “Summertime Playsuit” by Insight is made of 100% cotton sateen with a darling panda detail at the top, $60.
1. More of a girly-girl, are you? Nothing says picnic chic like a flirty gingham frock. J. Crew’s “Peggy Dress” in lightweight silk taffeta looks a little vintage, a little new and very cute, $395.
