Cocco Fresco, Cocco Bello!


This summer in Dublin leaves a LOT to be desired, so while is lashing rain outside I sit here dreaming about sun and sea air ... though I'm not a fan of the Italian Adriatic Riviera I couldn't help but feel nostalgic when I came across these gorgeous bags made with the waterproof material used on the famous brandina's of the Riviera Romagnola:



Brandina The Original

They bring back memories of sand castles, salty skin, the first swim, fresh coconut, nivea cream smeared on thick [my mother was very fond of it ... didn't really work, I still got burned every single summer, the curse of being a red head], and the not so happy memory of getting lost ...
