the eyes of someone who is a “discoverer”...Rhonda
Erb.
Late Summer
Getaway:
Clockwise, from top left :The Metro Basket
from Picnic Time, The Cinda b Weekender, The Natori Geisha Beach Towel, and The
Oniva Seat from Picnic Time (All Photos Isabelle Erb).
Picnic Time Metro Basket
& Chair:
What would summer be without picnics? Picnic
Time designs products that allow you to enjoy this rite of summer with style
and convenience. The Metro Basket is lightweight and insulated to keep foods
hot or cold. Its canvas and aluminum frame folds flat for storage and the
baskets are available in bright solid colors and fashion prints. Picnic
Time’s Oniva seat is a portable, cushioned, reclining chair. The name is
derived from the French expression “On y va”, which means,
“Let’s go.” The seat features six adjustable back positions and
is easy to carry with its attached shoulder strap. These chairs can do double
duty to provide extra seating indoors as well (they’re great for dorms and
play rooms).

Cinda b
Weekender:
Cinda Boomershine’s versatile bags are made
of machine washable poly/nylon fabrics. They come in a wide range of styles and
colorful patterns and each bag is manufactured in the U.S.A. Cinda b’s
roomy duffel bags are easy to pack and are surprisingly affordable. The
weekender bag (shown above in sweetleaf navy) is perfect for a late summer
vacation and will easily make the transition to your favorite fall carry
all.

The Natori Geisha Beach
Towel:
Leave it to Natori to bring
a touch of luxury to the beach. This oversized (40” by 70”), hot pink
towel features an eye catching Geisha design. It’s made of ultra soft
cotton velour and it's machine washable. This is the ideal accessory for every

Fragrance:
Also from designer Josie Natori, a sophisticated, new
fragrance to wear while you languish away those last days of summer. Natori is
a sensuous floral cocktail; a combination of rose petal, plum, ylang ylang,
peony, jasmine, patchouli, amber, and satin musk. Its elegant deep purple
bottle is designed to be reminiscent of the lotus blossom.
