The July Wish List is amok with prints and earthy tones to compliment a festival and vacation mood. July is where festival wear and holiday attire vie for our attention – one camp championing tonal shades, while the other goes all out with print and colour. I think I'll be going with them in equal measures. Balance outfits with complimentary prints and block colours to execute a more wholesome look.
Frescobol Carioca O Sol Rio Swim Shorts
I think it's time to add a colourful swim short to my collection, and Frescobol Carioca is one of the first to come to mind. With their Brazilian inspired graphics and colours, these will work a treat. One consideration is to wear colourful shorts with a plain top, and block colour shorts to complement a jazzy shirt. You don't need unnecessary pattern clash.

Wolf vs Goat Bowling Shirt
Keeping with the print theme, why not go for a statement bowling shirt. This one from Wolf vs Goat is made from Japanese fabric, and constructed in Italy.

Oliver Spencer Laurel Jacket
There's becoming more of a need for jackets that straddle the line between relaxed and formal. I'm liking the Oliver Spencer tailoring which is soft and inspired from vintage shapes. The Laurel Jacket is a linen number with a generous peak lapel that gives it a touch of elegance. I can see myself wearing this with a number of trouser options.

Stiksen Linen Baseball Cap
You might know I'm a fan of caps, but interestingly, throughout my entire collection I don't have any linen caps. Stiksen's range of luxury caps now includes linen versions for linen obsessed individuals like myself.

The Resort Co. Riviera Sunglasses
I'm a fan of the sunglasses from The Resort Co. The Riviera model especially stands out, and this Walnut colourway is spot-on. It takes design cues from midcentury design and feature complementary tinted lenses.

Wax London Kew Short Sleeve Shirt
I've never really been a fan of short sleeved shirts – more with short sleeved dress shirts. When you enter relaxed shirts, you think of camp collar or bowling shirts, but this one from Wax London offers a relaxed fit that works well left undone, or buttoned up.

London Sock Co. Simply Marl Socks
Summer socks can go a couple of ways – thin and lightweight, or chunky and casual. These marl socks from London Sock Co. are mid-weight knit socks made from uniquely twisted organic cotton yarn giving them breathable qualities that you want when it gets warm. I see myself wearing these to the beach or with Birkenstock sandals for an all-round proper comfortable experience.
