Summer days inspire us to get outside more and take better care of ourselves. Summer nights, of course, can be a very different story. To get the most out of both, you need stuff. The best trail shoe to spirit you up a mountain, a portable video iPod player to help make comely friends at the beach, the cutest Hermès espadrilles this side of the Hamptons to ensure your fabulosity in the summer share house. If anyone contends that such items aren't really essential, dare them to show up in St. Tropez wearing something from last season!
