The Monaco Edit

Known for it's Casinos, Yacht Lined labour and prestigious Grand Prix, it's no wonder a handful of the hottest celebrities and influencers chose to spend the last of the summer, catching rays on a luxury yacht on the French Riviera.

Lauren Pope, Montana Rose Brown and Emily Shak were a few of the babes to have chilled on the yacht for The Santa Monica Company's official launch party.
The Santa Monica Company is a new drinks brands behind the delicious green tea Lemonade, a zesty and refreshing new drink to market and one we can imagine ourselves sipping on in beautiful Monaco. Well, that's exactly what the girls got up to, alongside, exploring the town and partying the night away..and we were very jealous!

Emily Shak, Scottish/Lebanese Fashion blogger glowed as she relaxed and enjoyed the stunning views from the front of the Yacht wearing none other than The Rash Suit in Chalk/Jet from Pursuit The Label - Premium swimwear made from recycled ocean waste.
