A flash of time gone by, live out a proper throwback with the extended romantic overtures, the lashings of sharp synth beats and the intrusions of the bass line in (tasteful) 80s disco fashion and the season’s coolest sunglasses.
Even if you’re stuck in the gray and grit of the concrete jungle during the summer, it doesn’t mean that you have to skip out on all the fun that comes along with it. Sure, there is no sun, sand and sea, but there sure are many other ways to kick your feet up and have a heck of a good time. Off the top of our heads, you can either lounge by a hotel pool, take a stroll by the side-streets that have little to no people, or simply dine al fresco. But whatever you choose to do, make sure to stay protected, especially if you’re out in the sun. Oh, and we’re talking about punctuating your look with functional sunglasses, by the way. Just so we are all clear.
