Essen x Friends With Frank tote bag
$479
Friends With Frank is here with another standout summer tote. If you’ve been struggling to hit your back-to-work stride, this leather-trimmed raffia style made in collaboration with Essen is sure to help. It’s big enough to fit a laptop and comes with a detachable inner pouch for stashing your essentials.
Looking for a new summer tee? Zorali’s Trash range is made from 30 per cent recycled cotton, gathered from post-consumer waste and production scraps, and 70 per cent organic cotton. We’re vibing the “Get Back to Nature” logo – a nice reminder as we return to our desks. Plus, the brand is offering discounts when you bundle two or more styles.
It’s time to move on from the idea that umbrellas are just for rainy days. New Zealand brand Blunt has just released its UV Series, which offers 50+ Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) and provides temperature-reducing shade. The brand’s Metro style is virtually indestructible thanks to clever engineering – you won’t want to forget this one at the pub.
