Paradise Found

The finest, freshest tropical treasures for summer. —Vita Daily

influencer pick. "I love swapping out my décor for the season, and something as simple as a new tropical throw pillow outside on my patio really freshens things up! This fun ‘tropical dots’ printed number from Chapters Indigo ($26) is outdoor-friendly and won’t go out of style any time soon." —Erin Sousa, founder, Sparkle Media

body bliss. New Body Yogurts ($16) from Body Shop offer next-level moisture in several tropical scents—think strawberry, mango, almond milk, coconut and special-edition banana (the latter made with fruit of all shapes and sizes that won’t sell in the food industry!).

candy land. Move over five-cent gummies—there’s a new sweet-tooth satisfier in town. Founded in Vancouver by Hala Hamach, Candy Fix is Canada’s first online interactive sweets boutique that lets you create and customize your own candy boxes (for special-occasion gifts or for yourself; the company also offers party favours for, say, weddings. Just pick your package, choose your candies (tropically speaking, we’re into the mango gummy bears and sour pineapple slices), add personal touches—like a customized label—et voila! Candy crushing it!

lip service. Enjoy the sunshine a little longer, whether you’re near the equator or not. Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution in Sunset Lover ($39) has officially launched exclusively online, and the colour is to tropically die for.

orange juice. Mandarine ($180 at Hudson’s Bay), in keeping with the vision of Daniela Andrier for Les Infusions de Prada, is a "choreographed reenactment of the raw events of an orange" (sounds juicy, right?!).

sole mates. These fabulous flamingo Hefner flats ($390) by French Sole are part of an exclusive collection designed in collab with fashion influencer and style muse Alice Naylor-Leyland.

coco nuts. Marc Jacobs‘ limited-edition Coconut Fantasy collection, including a super-sized bronzer, a gel highlighter and a perfecting setting mist, boasts radiance-enhancing tropical essentials that give skin the summer glow-ahead.

papaya guy. Made for men, Caryl Baker Visage’s Papaya Perfecting line, pumped full of natural anti-aging vitamins, antioxidants and enzymes, promises to help guys get their skin glowing and facial hair game strong.

whatta melon. These cute dangly watermelon earrings ($39) from Poppy & Peonies have us feelin’ fine, fruity and very Carmen Miranda.

pastry paradise. Part of Vancouver baker Soirette‘s summer lineup, these pineapple lemon verbena macarons ($15 for a half dozen) are made with a fresh in-house pineapple jam centre and uplifting lemon verbena cream.

pearly peepers. There’s something very "south of the equator" about pearls—as proven by these adorned Fendi shades ($725 at Holt Renfrew).

miss spade. From Kate Spade’s by the Pool collection, this raffia-trimmed flamingo Pippa leather bucket bag ($458 at Nordstrom) pays a tropical tribute to the late designer.

it’s a wrap. The “it” beach accessory for summer? This round double-sided Tofino Towel Co. creation ($90), inspired by secluded shoreline adventures with sea caves and endless tidal pools to explore.

hot yoga. Made special for stretching in humid climes (read: studios), this natural Philo mat ($69) by Vancouver-based Warrior Mats is anything but boring.

yoobi good. This year, back to school means giving back thanks to Yoobi, which makes colourful stationery and supplies—a good portion of it tropically themed and available at Chapters Indigo—and donates free school supplies to kids across Canada in return.

tropical twister. A fleeting rainstorm followed by a glorious rainbow—it doesn’t get much more tropical than that, and this Furla minibag ($545 at Blubird) proves it.

pineapple ring. This APM Monaco pineapple ring ($116 at Blubird) is all sterling silver and zirconia stones.

gilded sands. Charlotte Tilbury‘s latest Bar of Gold Trio launch ($75 from July 9th and only online) boasts three sublime shades of show-stopping gold highlighter that promise to bring instant magic to summer makeup looks.
