Summer is here and so is summer shopping! Whether you are planning to spend the day at the beach or at a backyard barbecue—ideally, you’ll do both—you’ll want to sport something fresh.
Ganeaux in Amagansett has some hot new looks to check out for both men and women. A personal favorite are the Lika Mimika double-soled espadrilles. New from Spain, they combine with R13 Denim jeans to complete the laidback chic look. Call 631-267-7717 and stop by at 167 Main Street, Amagansett.
