Seaside Inspiration
A bounty of sea-inspired finds
Hello friend,
This time of year, the sea is calling: salt air, sunshine, waves crashing, beaches filled with people, sailboats in the distance and umbrellas dotting the landscape. A picture-perfect summertime scene of a life well-lived!
In this issue of the newsletter, we are inspired by seaside living with an innovative clothing brand from Palm Beach that says size doesn’t matter; a matriarch of the clean beauty movement whose magic ingredient is seaweed; a Mediterranean Sea inspired food and wine pairing by our very own Chef and Sommelier Tonia Wilson; an ocean-centric bath salt to detoxify; and a woman-owned seaside getaway that is infused with Italian style and an experience that is second to none.
Enjoy!

To call the woman behind Mezzatore Hotel and Spa a hotelier doesn’t do her justice. She’s a tastemaker who happens to be run three of Italy’s most iconic hotels, infusing her personal style and emotional connection in every space.
