Summer Celebrations
For the couple, the graduate, the host, the new arrival, the kiddos and what to wear for the occasion.
With summer comes no shortage of reasons to celebrate. Weddings, christenings, weekends at a friend’s summer house, and those belated graduation gifts for loved ones you’ll finally see once everyone’s schedules free up.
Today’s edit is a collection of gift ideas for those special occasions, along with even more gifting inspiration and a curated selection of dresses for my paid subscribers, perfect for summer’s celebrations, whether it be a wedding, a garden party, or anything in between.

For the couple
Whether it’s something that finds a permanent place in their home or an experience that becomes a memory, these are gifts worthy of the occasion.
An overnight stay at a hotel – In Stockholm, my first pick would be Ett Hem.
What about two bathrobes? Tekla has you covered.
Svenskt Tenn’s pewter carafe was gifted to us by dear friends for our wedding, and it only gets better with age.

You can never have too many bowls.
A handmarbled guest book feels very old school in the best possible way.
Nothing is more special than an antique piece as a gift – a 1940s Swedish brass candelabra.

For the new arrival
For the little one and their parents, both for now and for years to come.
For the summer boy
A few things I’d happily give a little boy this summer, whether for a birthday, the start of the holidays, or simply because childhood summers deserve a little magic.
For the summer girl
Small treasures for a long summer of swimming, adventures, and ice cream runs.
For the milestone moment
The graduate, the girl moving out on her own, that friend who is turning 30 or 40 or 50 or 60 or just because!
