The allure of the French Riviera lies in its effortless elegance—sun-drenched terraces, linen-clad lunches, and afternoons that stretch into golden hour. It’s a place where fashion isn’t fussy but undeniably refined, where every accessory tells a story of timeless glamour. Enter: Grace de Monaco sunglasses.

Inspired by Princess Grace herself, these heirloom-worthy frames are a masterclass in Riviera sophistication. Whether you’re reclining poolside at Monte-Carlo Beach Club or strolling the marina in search of a seaside apéro, these shades bring an air of effortless polish to every look.

Here's how to channel your inner Grace with Riviera-chic styling ideas from our latest beachside escape:

1. Gingham + Grace: The Soft-Focus Take

In a sea of neutrals, soft pink gingham feels refreshingly romantic. Pair Grace de Monaco’s Frances sunglasses in rose crystal with a coordinating two-piece set, raffia accessories, and a wide-brimmed sunhat for an updated take on vintage resortwear. Finish with a gold statement necklace for a modern twist on Grace Kelly’s signature polish.

Style Tip: Opt for tinted lenses in a rose hue to subtly echo the palette of your outfit and soften the midday sun.

2. Effortless Texture: Crochet, Palms, and Poolside Cool

Nothing says Riviera leisure like a breezy mesh co-ord. Lightweight yet bold, this look brings playful embroidery into the spotlight—palm trees, lounge chairs, and a wink to Monte Carlo luxury. Paired with Grace de Monaco’s Margot shades in sage, this ensemble strikes a balance between nonchalance and chic.

Style Tip: Keep hair tousled and accessories minimal. Let the frames and embroidery do the talking.

3. Embroidered Elegance: Bohemian Grace

For a bolder nod to wanderlust, layer Grace de Monaco’s Georgie sunglasses with a vibrantly embroidered cover-up and deep emerald swimwear. Think earthy glam with a Riviera soul. A rope belt cinches the waist for structure, while a sculptural necklace completes the sun-kissed look.

Style Tip: Choose cat-eye or slightly angular frames to contrast beautifully with colorful patterns and rounded accessories.

Final Touches for Riviera Grace:

• Wristwear: A classic timepiece or silk scarf bracelet nods to old-world Monaco elegance.

• Hair: Keep it loose and natural, or tucked beneath a structured hat for midday sun protection.

• Footwear: Simple gold sandals or espadrilles work best—minimalist but luxe.

• Fragrance: A spritz of Promenade Sur Le Rocher adds the perfect finishing note—radiant with rose centifolia and bergamot, it captures the spirit of a Riviera afternoon.

Whether you’re lounging at Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc or sipping rosé at Monte-Carlo Beach Club, Grace de Monaco sunglasses add a layer of storybook sophistication to your every move. After all, timeless style isn’t just about what you wear, but how you wear it.
