First it was the raffia grass bag. A New York hotspot named the Park. Astroturf covering the display boxes at Urban Outfitters.
Yes, grass is the plant du jour. The July cover of Vogue featured Catherine Zeta-Jones sprawled on (what else?) a luxurious lawn. Every chic hotel is working the grass thing, and hard. But our favorite summer stalk accessory? The “Pick Nick” Swatch, which features a textured grass-like band with a red Volkswagen bug on its expanse. (Ah, remember those sixties summers?) Even better is the watch’s face, a circular swimming pool with a pair of swimmers doing the breaststroke. (Check out the chick’s cute pink bikini!)
Amid all the lawn mania this summer, claim your turf. Hit Central Park. Invest in a mower. Feel suburban. Kick back with a “Pick Nick” swatch, a copy of Vogue tucked in your raffia grass bag, some ladybugs in your hair, and a generous supply of wheat-grass juice at your side.
Just don’t smoke it, ‘kay? You know how we feel about smoking.
