Julia Black: Summer may be coming to an end but as I’m sure you are well aware, mother nature isn’t submitting to the calendar. The heat is continuing, and I'm on the hunt for ways to cool off. So, in preparation for what may very well be one of our longest and warmest summers I have been looking for ways to shake up that beach/cottage/pool must-have - The beach towel! Fresco is an extraordinary towel company, and my current fave. The California family-run and family-crafted luxury towel firm offers more than simple beach towels, they are works of art that layer old-world textile motifs with trending patchwork, washed and boho colour blends. The designs illustrate the whole Gemini duality in design, mixing flashy fluoro colours and hippy tie-dye with some serious historical Damasks, Moroccan influences and Chinoiserie patterns. Their plush 100% Turkish cotton towels are available to order in a whole mess of fantastic colours in both bath or beach sizes (bags and pillows are also in the line). For me, a self-professed eclectic chick (and a Gemini!), I have a passion for both décor and fashion. I love to blend a mix of styles and periods and find myself always challenged in balancing contrasting styles, and having things look good! Thankfully, Fresco has answered my desire for always wanting a bit of both ;)
