2. Louis Vuitton Hat Box

The Louis Vuitton hat box in monogram canvas had become an obsolete model for a long time, but recently experienced a revival, when they started to manufacture this timeless travel piece again. Lucky us, although most of them need to be specially ordered. Many celebrities are carrying this gorgeous hat box as a luggage bag, that is equipped with a removable leather ID holder and rests on protective golden brass feet. This sublime trunk case will definitely make every female heart beat just a little bit faster, whether being an LV lover or not.

3. RAG & BONE Grosgrain-trimmed wool-felt fedora

If you’re a fashionable jet setter and you love making stylish statements, Rag & Bone‘s wool-felt fedora is this season’s accessory you should rely on. It’s designed in a fresh sky-blue shade, ideal to protect you from the hot summer sun. Expertly crafted from soft wool-felt in the USA’s oldest hat factory, this floppy-brimmed piece has been hand-finished with a tonal grosgrain ribbon and an internal browband for a secure fit.

4. IWC Pilot’s Watch Automatic 36

The Swiss watch manufacturer IWC Schaffhausen is set to invest most of their energy into pilot’s watches throughout 2016, and while a number of oversized timepieces have already been unveiled by the Swiss watchmaker, this year, they are also bringing back the understated “Automatic 36” timepiece. Measuring in at a mere 36mm – unlike most pilot’s watches, which tend to break the 50mm mark – the Automatic 36 doesn’t feel like strapping an anchor to your wrist. The IWC Pilot’s Watch Automatic 36 is intended for watch lovers with a slightly slimmer wrist and a penchant for understatement with timeless design. The dial of the elegant three-hand watch is decidedly reduced and uncluttered. The watch is fully antimagnetic and water-resistant to six bar and is an “arm candy” for her.

What I Like – For Girls (and Women) is the question book all about the things you like. Take it with you when you’re planning on taking a beach break this summer or just want to unwind in a cheerful way. I promise it will keep you in a sunny mood all day long. The questions in the book offer a lot of insight into what you like and who you are. So kick back, put your feet up and get lost in your world of fantasy and reality.
