The Collection: Seaside Style

Sure, it’s been a pretty mild winter this year all around, but still somehow, the idea of a seaside escape is no less alluring just because snowstorm frequencies are way below average currently. A getaway to a spa-like beach bungalow to jumpstart spring? Yes, please! Don’t wait for the mercury to rise, though. Instead, outfit your bathroom right now with everything you need to transport you to that warm wind-in-your-hair, sand-beneath-your-feet oasis.

The Avalon faucet from Pfister evokes memories of days spent along the coast. Clean flowing lines reminiscent of tranquil ocean waves and windswept curves define the Avalon Collection. Ocean breeze not included. Avalon Three Hole Centerset Faucetpfisterfaucets.com

 

The color of these plush towels is so serene and subdued. Perfect for a luxurious, beach-inspired space! Elizabeth Arden The Spa Collection Towelsbedbathandbeyond.com

Faux coral is a stylish way to add sophisticated yet casual charm to any space. Opt for a piece (or two) in off-white to introduce texture without detracting from the rest of the décor. Faux Coral in Ivoryzgallerie.com

Nothing says beach retreat like gorgeous glass mosaics (well, besides a killer ocean view.) The sea glass color palette of these hand-cut tiles elicits a visual sigh. Though a bit of a splurge, it’ll make a bold, luxurious statement. Chrysalisannsacks.com
