VIBE

A quietly glamorous yet pleasingly whimsical take on resort wear. Calypso St. Barth trades the ubiquitous flashy designs and patterns of the island’s preppier beachwear boutiques for a (sometimes) calmer color palette and simple, flattering cuts made from delicate lace and soft cottons and silks. The boutique itself is a lovely, tranquil escape from the scene-tastic hubbub of Worth Avenue outside–consider it a mini-vacation from your vacation.

WHY WE LIKE IT

It’s a cool, with-it take on beachwear. Not that we have anything against the fashions of a certain Ms. Pulitzer and her many imitators, but Calypso St. Barth’s soft colors, flowing fabrics, and elegantly simple cuts are a nice change. Many of these pieces would work just as well on the summer streets of Manhattan as on the beach at The Breakers. Calypso also features an excellent collection of accessories–some of our favorite earrings and belts were purchased from this store.

GOOD TO KNOW

This store is located in a small alley behind Worth Avenue. The Calypso St. Barth flagship is in nearby Bal Harbor, FL. Online shopping is also available.
