Easy-Breezy at the Beach

After following Claudja Bicalho’s savvy and dead honest advice at Tracy Feith for a decade now, we were estatic when she and Mark Wilson opened Lazy Point Variety Shop in Amagansett, New York. This converted salt box house is v. cool and v. bohemian and exactly what a shop at the beach should be. Tracy Feith devotees will be glad to know that they are stocking his coveted designs. Visit 249 Main Street; Amagansett, NY 11930 or call (631) 604-2632.

Pop-Up Souk

Melissa Biggs Bradley, the founder and force behind luxury travel website www.indagare.com, has initiated a series of pop-up souks featuring exquisite, one-of-a-kind items from around the world. Many vendors support communities abroad and empower women to build sustainable businesses. In Southampton we were wowed by Anna Trezbinski (Kenya), Antica Sartoria di Positano (Amalfi Coast), CALM (Beirut), Eric Raisina (Cambodia), Maria Antinori and Elizabeth Gilbert’s Shompole Collection. Shown here are leaves dipped in silver and gold from www.surevolution.com. Look for the souks to pop up in Los Angeles in September, Chicago in October and Miami and New York in December.
