At the very top of my wish list is a subscription to Christian Chaize’s collector’s series of Praia Piquinia prints.

It began in 2005 on his annual (and swoon-worthy) pilgrimage to the seaside of Portugal. Since then, Christian has returned each and every year to photograph the same locale, capturing its crystal waters and colorful beachgoers. To me, it’s the perfect landscape study.

You know how some say you’re either a beach-going or mountain-treking person through and through? Well, I’m definitely the former, no matter how hard I try to love those majestic alps. The seaside gets me every. single. time.

My tote is beach bound every chance it gets. How about you?
