As summer approaches, it’s time to start thinking about the perfect accessories and gifts to enhance your summer experience. Whether you’re planning a vacation or staycation, here are some must-have items to make the most of your summer:
1 Beach Towel
A good quality beach towel is a summer essential. Not only does it provide a comfortable spot to lay on the sand, but it also doubles as a cover-up when you need to take a break from the sun. Choose a bright and fun design to add some personality to your beach day.
2 Sun Hat
Protect yourself from the sun’s harmful rays with a stylish sun hat. Not only does it provide shade, but it also adds a fashionable touch to any summer outfit. Choose a wide-brimmed hat for maximum coverage or a trendy bucket hat for a more casual look.

3 Water Bottle
Staying hydrated is crucial during the hot summer months. Invest in a durable water bottle that can keep your drink cold for hours. Choose from a wide variety of styles, colors, and sizes to suit your needs.
4 Sunglasses
Sunglasses are a summer staple. Not only do they protect your eyes from the sun, but they also add a touch of style to any outfit. Choose a classic aviator style or opt for something more trendy like cat-eye or oversized frames.
5 Portable Bluetooth Speaker
No summer party is complete without some music. A portable Bluetooth speaker allows you to bring your tunes with you wherever you go. Choose a waterproof and durable design that can withstand the sand, sun, and water.

6 Outdoor Blanket
An outdoor blanket is a versatile accessory that can be used for picnics, beach days, and outdoor concerts. Choose a waterproof and sand-proof design that can withstand the elements. Look for a compact and lightweight option for easy portability.
7 BBQ Tools
Summer is the perfect time to fire up the grill and enjoy some outdoor cooking. Invest in a set of high-quality BBQ tools that can handle anything from burgers to veggies. Look for durable materials like stainless steel and choose a design that is easy to clean.
Conclusion
Summer is a time to relax and enjoy the great outdoors. Whether you’re planning a family vacation or staycation, these accessories and gifts will enhance your summer experience. From beach towels to BBQ tools, make sure you’re fully equipped for a season of fun in the sun. Check out Vipon for the best deals on summer accessories!

Vipon has a huge range of amazing bags at great prices. Whether you need a bag for everyday use or an eco shopping bag for running to the store, check out our deals. I use a tote bag when picking up grocrcies – they are great as they can be used for everything from shopping to trips to the beach.
You know you need a new tote when:
• things start dropping out of a hole in the bottom,
• the corners are a bit grubby,
• the handle is getting less and less secure,
• it starts to lose its shape, or
• you just look at the back and think, “I need a new tote”.

The tote is an essentially simple bag; at its most basic, it’s just a square stitched together with a handle. But that doesn’t mean it has to look boring. It doesn’t mean it’s going to be cheap, either.
One of the best is the delightful Longchamp pliable, which means ‘foldable’. The bag is just nylon, but the handles and flap are the luxurious leather for which Longchamp is famous. And it folds up into a tiny package, so it’s a great tote to pack for traveling or shopping, or when you’re not sure how much you’re going to want to bring home with you.
But the Longchamp pliable, like a lot of totes, doesn’t have any organizers inside. So it’s not great as a daily bag, because all your stuff is going to get jumbled up. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ll want a bit more structure. There are some great canvas totes which have two or three dividers, and look really chic. Canvas is great for men’s bags, because it looks quite nautical.

Try a leather tote for a longer lasting and swanky looking bag. Leather will tend to be a bit heavier, but a good solid leather tote will last for ever with a bit of care, and even develop a bit of a ‘wabi sabi’ vibe with wear. If you don’t want animals to suffer for your style, there are some great vegan leather options nowadays, too.
One thing you’ll want to decide is whether you just want a handle, or want a cross-body or shoulder strap too. It can be a lot more comfortable to use a strap, and of course that also gives you the advertising of having your hands free, for instance if you’re going to a flea market.
Most totes are big enough for your shopping, your laptop, or even shoving a couple of antique vases into, so they’re real functional, as well as stylish. Best of all, you can grab a tote from bargain basement to luxury style – and whichever end of the scale you want to go, you can save a bit of money by searching Vipon for discounts!

Most people enjoy music, but not everybody gets the most out of it. You probably know someone who listens to music on crackly old speakers and has scratchy old CDs, and doesn’t realize how much better that music could sound. Or are you that someone?
Just getting better headphones or earbuds can make a vast difference. Get ones that are designed for great sound quality, not just for taking phone calls.
If you live in a noisy household and want to chill, a really good headphone set lets you soak up Beethoven or Leonard Cohen even if the kids are playing Peppa Pig at full volume. Bose, for instance, has noise cancellation built into its best music headphones, though admittedly at a high price.

Wireless earbuds are so much more convenient than wired. (If you want to take your pullover off, no wires to get in the way!) For workouts, try earbuds with ‘wings’ or hooked designs to keep your earbuds firmly secured while you run or push weights.
Good speakers are important, whether you’re looking for big speakers in the family room or just a couple of wireless speakers for your computer desk. What you listen to can dictate your choice; speakers with a good bass make rock music really rock, but you might want a different balance if you prefer classical.
You might even decide to take the step into playing a musical instrument. You’re (probably) not going to become Jimi Hendrix or Sister Rosetta Tharpe overnight, but there are plenty of ways to get started and work your way up. If you just want to add a bit of rhythm, start with egg shakers or maracas, and you can work your way through bongos or the djembe for a bigger sound, or into hang drums or tongue drums to start playing melodies.

Electronic keyboards are a great way to learn music and get into creating harmonies, and modern keyboards have good key action and fine musical tone. They’re slim, too, so if you don’t have a lot of room, they’ll stow way easily, and are portable if you want to play a gig with a band or just jam with some friends. Nice as grand pianos are, they’re not easy to move!
And above all, just keep your ears open. You never know, you might hear world famous violinist Joshua Bell playing free on the subway. (Yes, it actually happened!)
By the way, while you save up to go to conservatory, use Vipon to cut your costs by accessing the best discounts you can get.

So many bathrooms are just functional. They have a bath, a shower, a sink, a lavatory, a light over the sink, and that’s your lot. After all, it’s not a room you’ll spend much time in; at least, that’s what builders think.
Hotels know better. Luxury hotels go to town on their bathrooms because they know a properly relaxing bath is a real luxury. So follow the luxury hotel designer rather than the contract builder when you’re designing and equipping your bathroom.

Even the small things are important. Buy a more luxurious soap; an olive oil soap which will help moisturize your skin, soap scented with essential oils like orange flower, lemon or tea tree, or even donkey’s milk soap which may sound weird but is incredibly good for the skin (remember, Cleopatra bathed in asses’ milk). Bath bombs can also make a bath more fun.
Scents don’t have to be limited to soap. You might want to get some scented candles, potpourri, or just dab a drop of essential oil on each of your towels, so the bathroom smells great as soon as you open the door.
Storage is important; even a beautifully designed bathroom can look terrible if it has stuff scattered around. Get a couple of elegant bowls or dishes to hold supplies such as soap, cotton balls, and small bottles, and trays to hold your hairbrushes and other stuff. A set of shelves can help if you don’t have much space under the vanity.

Bars, rings, and hooks for hanging towels and dressing gowns will also change your storage abilities up a gear. In a small bathroom, an over-the-door set of hooks or mini shelves can add storage without taking up valuable space.
It’s never fun to use a thin, scratchy towel, so buy the best you can afford. Egyptian cotton is the softest you can get, in white for a hotel-fresh feel or colored to go with your decor.
Add some art on the walls. And get a better mirror; so often, mirrors are put in by the builders, who’ve bought the most basic and cheapest they can get at the depot. A French provincial style mirror can add luxury to the most basic bathroom. A better bath mat can help, too; you might even add a Persian rug, but make sure it’s colorfast.
And remember luxury doesn’t have to be expensive. Look on Vipon and you’ll find discounts that can get you much more luxury per dollar spent!

It may be a bit too early to rely on the weather being sunny and warm, but spring is definitely just around the corner. However, most of us miss getting the most out of our gardens in the early part of the year, because it’s still looking tired and grimy after the long winter.
Enjoy this spring properly by getting your garden into shape. Look around it now and see where a spot of color would spark some joy. A big ceramic pot or a bright sculpture could make a great accent even if the spring flowers are late.

This is the right time to think about where new plants could go, as well. For instance a red leafed grass, or a mass of tiny wild geraniums in varied purples and blues, could make a huge difference to your garden. If you don’t want to have to work for the effect every year, choose perennial plants that will naturalize.
Garden furniture is key to enjoying your garden. You might be happy with a few selected tree stumps you can sit on round your camp fire, but make sure they are cleaned and that you give them a coat of teak oil to stop them falling apart. Or you might want to make a little corner with French cottage style wrought iron chairs painted in white, with a little round table.
Remember, the style should work with what’s indoors as well as outdoors. A mid-century modern interior with a French cottage style garden will just clash; without will a Zen garden and bohemian interior.

We have a long way to go till the evenings are light, so make sure you can use your garden after dark by getting some great lighting. Solar lamps are really useful in the garden, giving you an extra three or four hours of light; or install strings of lights in the trees to pretty them up and give you some ambient lighting.
And of course there’s nothing quite as nice as candlelight, so get some nice candle or tea-light holders.
Finally, remember to give everything a good spring clean. Patios and decking all need a bit of care before they’ll look their best.
Looking for garden accessories? You can buy online instead of heading for the garden center, and get the hard work of transportation done for
you. Even better, head for Vipon to find some great discounts!

Most blogs about makeup are about what cosmetics and skincare items to buy, or how to use them.
But you rarely read about how to organize them. Which means 90 percent of women are coping with having some things in their handbags, some in the bedroom, some in the bathroom, and some… lost down the back of the couch, probably.

If you have a vanity with drawers, instead of filling the entire drawer up with different stuff, get yourself some drawer organizers. That way, you can have all your regular stuff for a day at work in one place, and your party glamor stuff in another; or all your mascaras in one place and your lipsticks organized by color. Smaller compartments are great for accessories like bobby pins and cotton balls.
Clear organizers are great news as you can see what you’re picking up. Whether you use a mason jar or clear box or tray, or, as a friend does, Ferrero Rocher boxes she’s been given for her birthday. (Yes, of course she eats the chocolates first.)

Get a proper holder for your makeup brushes, so they don’t lie around spreading powder or gathering dirt. A mug will do, but a purpose bought pot is much nicer.
A Lazy Susan can also make a great base for pots of your most commonly used products; it will keep them tidy but you’re not going to have to reach for what’s at the back, just flick the Lazy Susan round when you need to. It’s also a great way to make use of the corner of a vanity nearest the wall, where normally, you wouldn’t put stuff because it would be too far out of the way.
Don’t forget beauty products can be beautiful. Some people actually collect perfume bottles; the Lalique Trésor de la Mer 1936 limited edition for Saks sold at auction for over $200,000! If you have really beautiful products, even if they’re not collectors’ items, you might want to display them on a shelf, or even buy a shadow box to mount some of them on the wall. (Don’t do that with products you want to use every day, though!)

Mason jars or other glass jars can be great for keeping stuff like hair ties, cotton wool balls, and makeup pads. The lid will stop dust and dirt getting in, and you’ll be able to see what’s in them. Better still get a set of jars that come with a matching tray, so they’re kept neatly together.
On a slightly different tack you might want to keep your hairdryer out of sight when it’s not needed. Easily done – buy an over-the-door caddy and keep it tucked neatly in the bathroom cupboard!
However you decide to organize your stuff, before you splash the cash, take a look on Vipon. There are always loads of products going at a discount, and you can save your dollars to spend on that expensive lipstick you’ve been jonesing after for a while.

Wherever you’re traveling, you’ll need the right kind of luggage. That’s true whether you’re off on a business day trip or a round-the-world cruise, though of course, the specific kind of luggage you want will be different depending on the kind of travel you’re doing.
For complicated itineraries involving a lot of changes of transport, a backpack’s the best option. It leaves your hands free so you can deal with your tickets, money, boarding passes, and so on, and it’s better at stairs and uneven surfaces than a rolling suitcase.

One disadvantage of backpacks is that they can make you look like a student or a deadbeat. But luxury designer backpacks exist. So do rather clever backpacks which let you zip the straps into the luggage to convert it into a carry bag whenever you want to.
Duffel bags are another great way of lugging plenty of stuff around. They exist in every combination from cheap nylon to pure cotton canvas with brown leather accents.
Or you might just want to shove everything in a colorful tote, if for instance you’re taking a day to visit a local museum or do some antiquing. Kath Kidston’s cute, colorful bags are a joy, or you can look for totes with a message, or Hello Kitty bags which have become even more popular with parents than with their kids!

Trolley suitcases remain favorites with many travelers. Manufacturers make sure they fit most airlines’ size requirements for carry-on luggage, so they’re great if you’re a frequent flier making short trips. Check the reviews – the handles and wheels can be weak points, so it’s better to buy the best quality you can.
Then there are specific purpose bags, like camera bags for instance – made to protect your camera equipment against bumps and shocks. Anyone who takes their photography seriously will want a good camera bag, but remember if you use accessories like extra lenses for a DSLR, chargers, tripods and so on, you’ll want space for those too. Laptop cases, similarly, give your computer the protection it needs.

Good makeup bags make life easier, particularly if you have one ready packed that can just be chucked in your suitcase as soon as you know you’re going to be traveling.
However, there are two top tips which will really make your life so much easier. One is to buy foldable bags like luxury brand Longchamps’ ‘pliable’, which you can pack in case you buy too much stuff. The Longchamps bag has become a staple of Parisian style, folds down to the size of a tiny purse, and can handle a shopping trip, day at the beach, or picnic in the Jardin de Luxembourg.
And grab yourself some luggage tags so if you see twenty similar cases coming off a carousel, you know which is yours. Or buy bright purple and yellow bootlaces and tie them to the handle!

This winter has been hard, and it’s not over yet. There have been a few days that even with the heating turned up, the chill somehow gets in. And that means you need a cozy blanket.
But how to choose? There are so many different things to think about. What color? You might fancy a hot pink blanket, but will it go with the decor? Or don’t you mind? Grays and creamy whites are good for a minimalist or Scandinavian house, but make sure the white is creamy or there’s a little brown in the mix, so the underlying feel is warm rather than cold.

You might want plain. Juicy orange works well on its own. But you might prefer a pattern; stripes and checks are always in fashion. Or you might want a faux tiger skin. You could even get a blanket decorated with cute kittens or jolly dogs.
What about materials? The classic is pure wool; it’s really insulating and warm, and a hundred percent natural, too. But some brands now are using recycled fibers; recycled plastic bottles, surprisingly, can make a comfortable woven blanket, and you won’t have any problems with clothes moths.
Texture doesn’t have to be plain. One great look for a comfortable family room is a chunky knitted blanket. Loose knits also help to retain the warmth. Bouclé fabrics can also look great; the fuzzy, bobbly feel is both comfortable and stylish.

Alpaca, angora and cashmere are delightfully soft, but horribly expensive. If you’re after a throw for an elegant apartment, that’s great; if you have young kids, save cashmere for your best work scarf. And make sure you know what you’re buying; a lot of cashmere is mixed with regular wool, which isn’t as soft, or as good at retaining warmth.
Synthetic fleece and flannel are also worth thinking about. Polyester fibers retain heat pretty well, and you’ll find a lot of budget options. Some throws combine wool and poly together, which is a great mix; it can help you keep the clothes moths away, as well as saving money.
And while you’re trying to save money, why not take a look at Vipon before you head for the mall? Vipon has loads of extra-deep discount deals to give you a nice warm feeling, even before your blanket arrives!

We just opened our Valentine’s super sale, be sure to check it out for the best deals on amazing gift ideas. Hurry while stocks last, the sale closes 14th February.

Valentine’s Day can be a dreadful time for some people. There’s always one little girl in the class who doesn’t get a card. Or the ex who keeps sending increasingly hopeless vows of eternal love. Or the fact that your nearest and dearest really thinks you want a five-pack of skimpy bright red underwear instead of a new yoga mat?
Worse than all this, though, is the horrible array of choices facing you if you have to buy someone a Valentine’s Day present.

It’s impossible to say what’s right and what’s wrong. We could say “get personalized jewelry with both your names on it”, and some giftees will just love that. Others will think it’s vulgar. (One friend got his lawyer girlfriend a personalized necklace that says “I plead the Fifth”, though, and she loves it. She wears it to work all the time.)
Chocolates? Always acceptable – unless of course your beloved is trying to stick to a diet.
Romantic hearts and roses? Some people love them – others think they’re too cutesy.
If you want to get a gift that shows real affection, here are some other choices that could really work beautifully:
• A warm and pretty blanket or throw. Especially useful right now if there’s still snow outside, and you can add a hand written note saying “can we snuggle up?”

• Attractive stationery to use such as a journal or notebook, or some high quality writing paper (you might suggest you’d like a note from time to time).
• A herb or flower growing kit that can be started on Valentine’s Day. Herbs for the kitchen, or flowers for decoration and that can be planted outside once they’ve bloomed.
• A presentation box of herbal infusions or different flavored teas. Some boxes are so nice they can be used as jewelry boxes once the tea has all gone.
• A subscription for a pack of great coffee every month for the next year. (That’s real love, and good for a Valentine of either gender, which, let’s face it, fluffy slippers really aren’t.)

• You both love cocktails and you don’t have a cocktail shaker? That’s something you need to sort out!
• Don’t forget that sometimes small gestures are meaningful. That light-bulb that needs fixing, the grubby floor mat that needs replacing? If you have a few things like this on your list, get them done on February 13th!
And your friend in fixing all these things is Amazon, where you can find everything from LEDs to exotic teas. But look on Vipon first – we’re just Amazon with bigger discounts! Our Valentine’s sale is open NOW and runs through to 24th February, check it out here:

Never mind New Year’s resolutions, after spending so much time at home over the holidays, some of us are looking at our homes and thinking we need to get things in order.
For instance, you got a nice picture but you still don’t have a picture frame for it! It’s time to go shopping, and you can do that online. Take your dimensions and off you go! Or it may be you’ve got lovely photos of children and grandchildren and nowhere to put them; do yourself a favor and look for a pack of frames that will group them nicely together.

Lots of us have small collections. Modern sculpture or little tchotchkes, they get put on shelves but often you can’t really see them all that well, and they retreat into the background instead of being the highlights that they should be. It’s time to get some display lighting for your shelves. There’s plenty online, from classy brass fittings to hidden spotlights.
Got some books as presents? Get yourself a pair of bookends to stop them falling over, or to let you use the mantelpiece or the back of your desk as an impromptu bookcase. Some favorites we’ve seen recently are rustic cast iron ducks and chickens, art deco clear plastic, and adorable but expensive Fornasetti bookends in the shape of gorgeous Florentine palazzi.

A lot of people find cooking for the entire family over the holidays really shows up the deficiencies in their kitchens. First of all, if you don’t have a book rest for your cookery books (or iPad), get one; it makes following recipes so much easier. Clear up your counter; get a pot for your wooden spoons, hooks for hanging ladles and scoops, baskets for your napkins or cutlery.
If your kitchen (or doors, or furniture) just feels a bit drab, you don’t need to redecorate; just go shopping for new handles and knobs! Faceted glass knobs can add a bit of shiny glitz, and replacing old wooden knobs by contemporary chrome can bring a kitchen right up to date really easily.

If the holidays exposed a bit of clutter, you don’t have to do decluttering right now, but you might want to buy a few good storage containers to keep stuff out of sight till you’ve decided what to do with it. Or maybe it was just room to hang everyone’s coats you ran out of? That’s easy to fix by looking for a cute hook-board for your entryway or mudroom.
And it’s the January sales, so there’s no better time to go looking! But take a look on Vipon first, to check out the big discounts available on Amazon purchases.
