The Swede Life

TheSwedeLife12.jpg For the second consecutive season, Timo Weiland and design partner Alan Eckstein have teamed up with milliner Albertus Swanepoel and cobbler George Esquivel to create a collection of caps and boots.
Inspired by the Swedish seaside, where Weiland spent the summer of 2008, the latest offerings include jaunty women’s berets in lace, nautical stripes, and a custom floral print; and for the boys, suede desert boots in a shade of blue that recalls the Scandinavian sky. “The 24 hours of sunlight is like nothing else,” says Weiland (at Barneys New York; berets, $175 to $200; boots, $635 to $705).
