Ballet flats, oversized sunglasses, cropped trousers and a basket bag flung over your arm: there is no more insouciantly cool arm candy than this. Effortless and always stylish, these raffia wonders channel the spirit of the wonderful and always chic Jane Birkin. We’ll be keeping an emergency long-sleeved Breton top in ours in a case of cool summer evenings, as well as a cheeky half bottle of rosé because, well, it’s summer and why not?
