Your Invitation to a Carefree Summer ☀️
Just for you—the Summer Issue came early. Peek inside.
The Summer Issue of Camille Styles EDIT launches tomorrow—and as a subscriber to Breathing Space, you get early access. The team and I have been working on this issue for months, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it here first!
✨ Dive into the Summer Issue here ✨
Here’s what inspired this issue’s theme: CAREFREE
As a kid, the last day of school felt like magic. The final bell would ring, and suddenly a whole world of freedom opened up: bike rides until sunset, popsicles on the front porch, bare feet in the grass.
Summer meant possibility—unstructured, playful, and deliciously slow.
But somewhere along the way, that feeling started to fade. Calendars stayed full, and the promise of carefree days got lost in between meetings and summer camp drop-offs.
With this issue, we’re reclaiming that feeling. Not just for a week at the beach—but in small everyday rituals: drinking coffee on the patio, playing hooky for an afternoon swim, saying yes to a dinner party just because.
Inside, you’ll find:
✨ A dreamy “summer in Italy” dinner party hosted by our cover star, Chloé Crane-Leroux
✨ Beauty icon Bobbi Brown on natural beauty and her most-loved products
✨ A sun-dappled backyard lunch with chef Camilla Marcus, reminding us how beautiful simplicity can be
✨ Seasonal recipes, effortless summer style, the ultimate reading list, and so much more
This issue is your permission slip to slow down, savor the wild abundance of the season, and say yes to a summer lived with more lightness, connection, and joy.

Summer vacation as a pre-teen. Playing outside all day, time at the beach or running through the sprinklers, climbing trees, reading on a blanket in the yard, picnic lunches. ...
I recently took a trip to Maryland for two weeks! Though the trip was for medical reasons, I remember I felt so free and alive just exploring and being in nature in a place away from home- sometimes even a small trip in the same state can put me in that same frame of mind, where my responsibilities fall away for a little while.
