Summer Destination: French Riviera
Buzzy restaurants, showy boutiques, elegant, tree-lined boulevards and the clear pastel waters along the coast, everything about the place gives off cool-girl vibes. The French Riviera (or Côte d’Azur) has been my favorite glamorous destination for years, so it’s no wonder it was the creative inspiration behind my newest summer collection. If you find yourself planning a jaunt to the sun-soaked Riviera, here’s three of my bucket list recommendations for what you must see and do while there.
St. Tropez via Entouriste
1. St. Tropez
My love for St. Tropez runs deep. The sleepy beach village became the destination after Bridget Bardot made it famous in the 1950’s.Stay – Hotel Byblos to be steps from the best shopping, restaurants and nightlife.Dine – Club 55 for a beach day and dine! Don’t forget a Tropézienne for dessert.Do – The open-air market on Tuesdays and Saturday mornings for fresh food, antiques, and vintage clothes.
