Escape

Soon the weather will be cold. But, right now, autumn is glorious. The beach is not far away. Let’s go. With a carryall full of possibility from Jane’s Vanity.

There’s nothing better than the privacy of a borrowed beach house. You create the past, present, and future. While searching everywhere for the corkscrew. Picture yourself in sandy flip-flops, as you light candles for the breakfast table, peruse the book shelf, and contemplate your next brilliant outfit. While the sound of the surf pounds in the background.

An autumn beach weekend calls for beach walks and indoor sports. After an outdoor shower and a quick rub-down, you’ll want a touch of luxury against your bare skin. Christine Vancouver has you covered, in her Moonlight collection of printed silk, silk chiffon, and silk velvet. Begin with the Moonlight Velvet Gown, a spaghetti-strapped dream in moody dark velvet. Then don a choice of matching cover-ups: the buoyant Moonlight Chiffon, the Moonlight Silk-Lined Velvet Jacket, or the Moonlight Silk-Lined Velvet Robe. Any one of them would suit a game of checkers by the fire. 

For daytime beachcombing, choose the Moonlight Silk Pajamas, cosied up with the fore-mentioned Moonlight Silk-Lined Jacket. If the surf catches your trouser cuffs, they’ll dry quickly. And you can switch into Christine’s Meghan Luxe Silk Crepe Gown, to wear with the jacket for dinner in the village.

On the last night, get festive in the Noor Aubergine Babydoll from Layalina. This lovely and playful piece is an amazing compliment to the Moonlight collection.

Nothing like the sea to smooth out your world. Tomorrow, it’s back to town. But, for a few days, you’ve felt the embrace of nature (and, possibly, of someone nice). Jane’s Vanity wishes you many great escapes!
