Kim Gilhool is no stranger to retail, and it’s apparent at her fresh new digs in Essex. Masterfully merchandised, Market is well named, too, as it may just bring you back to vacations in the South of France perusing village marchés. You’ll find baskets of striped, slip-on espadrilles, and a more on-trend version with scalloped edges, plus beach totes and kurtas, and Kim’s well-styled displays of home decor and accessories. Snag some bright pillows to update your sun porch, or hang these fun (and cheap) paper shades for a party. Little Barn, one of my favorite lines of natural apothecary is available here too, so be to sure grab a bottle of Honeysuckle & Grapefruit Body Oil before it’s gone. The stuff is good enough to eat. It’s a sweet stop for some summery inspiration.
