JIMMY CHOO Amiral 90 sandals, $1,175, and Varenne pouch, $650.

Embroidered espadrilles, beaded barely there heels, timeless swimwear, and an array of playfully designed accessories in a sun-bleached palette comprise Jimmy Choo’s new shoreline-ready Beach capsule. Carryalls in large and small iterations from leather-handled baskets to totes to brightly hued Bon Bon bucket bags in sunset-inspired shades of fuchsia, gold, and paprika—crafted in beaded raffia and smooth leather—hold essentials including lip gloss, sunscreen, the brand’s square-framed Nena sunglasses, and a stash of paperback novels. Not to be missed are glamorous cork Gal wedges in fuchsia or natural raffia with bold 5-inch heels and tassel-tied ankle straps. Equally charming and a bit more casual are cork flats and rubber flip-flops. Candy-colored beading on square-toed Amiral leather sandals are poolside party staples.

Retro design influences and plenty of whimsical flourishes, including beads and crochet patterns, affirm the collection’s off-duty ethos, but there are also plenty of precise, elevated details. Gold embroidery swirls across smoky blue, fuchsia, or latte Varenne pouches, and geometric JC monograms are printed on an assortment of swimwear designs, including triangle and bandeau bikinis and a plunging one-piece made with regenerated nylon. Naturally, a made-in-Italy oversize cotton beach towel supporting the Better Cotton Initiative is also on offer, as are raffia bucket hats and patterned silk foulards in smoky blue and the eye-catching combination of fuchsia and orange. Clearly, this capsule has you covered, or uncovered, as needed. 250 N. Rodeo Dr., Beverly Hills, 310-860-9045; 3333 Bristol St., South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa, 714-327-0644; jimmychoo.com.
