Summer Essentials

Everything for the long days, from the beach bag to the bach. SPF 50+ sunscreens by We Are Feel Good Inc., glass straws by Sucker, Amalfi fluted glassware, ceramic dishes, Slim Aarons books, indoor-outdoor tables and faux stems that handle a warm room without wilting.

Summer in the Bay runs from the first swim in December to the last barbecue in March, and this is the edit for all of it. Some of it goes in the beach bag, some of it lives on the deck, and some of it simply makes the house feel like the holidays have started.

Sun care comes first. We Are Feel Good Inc. is made for long days outside, with a coconut sunscreen, a sensitive formula for face and body, a tinted zinc for noses and cheeks, and an after-sun lotion for the evening. For the table, Sucker's glass straws and the Amalfi fluted glasses and decanter by Papier HQ make a cold drink feel like an occasion, the Louis Table is at home inside or out, and a Slim Aarons book on the coffee table sets the mood for the whole season.

Heading away? Our Coastal edit has more for the bach, and For the Beach Bum is the summer gift list.

Which sunscreen suits sensitive skin?
The Sensitive Sunscreen SPF 50+ is formulated for face and body on sensitive skin. As with any new product, patch test first, and check the product page for the full ingredient list.

Are the glass straws dishwasher safe?
Yes. Sucker's straws are borosilicate glass, come with a cleaning brush and go in the dishwasher.

Can the Louis Table go outside?
It is designed as an indoor-outdoor side table. A covered deck or veranda will keep it looking its best for longer.
