WHAT’S IN STORE

A roundup of retail happenings throughout Tallahassee

by REBECCA PADGETT

Narcissus’ swim buyer Marina Gorman has selected and stocked the trends that will add sizzle this season, including many happy colors.

High-waisted and high-leg bikini bottoms are back for another year, offering a transitional look that is both sporty and retro while embracing all shapes and sizes. Swimwear confidence is always in style! Happy hues and playful prints adorn swimwear, with an emphasis on subtle neon, every blue under the sea and fierce animal prints. Swim tops echo the ready-to-wear trends of ruffles, sleeves, one-shoulder and crop-top shapes. Stray from your usual style and try a trendy top that’s sure to make you feel fashion-forward.

Coton Colors

➸ One of Tallahassee’s most beloved brands, Coton Colors has released an exclusive collection with ZESTT ORGANICS, an organic, fair and ethical cotton goods company. Free of harsh dyes and harmful pesticides, this cloud-soft collection includes rattles, blankets, swaddles and loveys. Both you and your baby will coo over the calming hues and cuddle-up softness of this beautiful collection.

Southern Pines Finds

➸ The days are hot, but your cocktail should remain cold. The COCKTAIL CANTEEN is an insulated cocktail shaker filled with all of the tools you need to make delicious drinks anytime, anywhere. Containing a collapsible jigger/shot glass, a telescoping bar spoon, a mini funnel, a glass dropper bottle and a combo peeler/ zester, this pack of portable tools is a must-have for committed cocktail enthusiasts.

➸ Nothing is more attractive in the summer than safe and healthy skin. LUCKY BASTARD SUNSCREEN is organically crafted and environmentally safe. Non-nano zinc oxide, aloe, sunflower and jojoba oils are infused with the organic essential oils of chamomile and lavender. This SPF 30 sunscreen effectively provides full- spectrum protection without the unwanted chemicals, and it smells heavenly.
