Resort-style this, resort-style that. If there were ever a summer design buzzphrase, I do believe it would be that. And while it’s easy to get caught up in all the fringed umbrellas and chaise lounges promising to transport you to your coast of choice, it's often just one hero piece that really sells the R&R.
I just stumbled upon one of those vibe-shifting pieces at ALDI for $50. It’s a low-slung woven outdoor chair oozing mid-century coastal charm and a dead ringer for seats I’ve seen at high-design retailers for six (or more) times the price. In fact, it looks remarkably similar to pieces I’ve spotted on my most memorable trips to Riviera Maya and the South of France.
