Relaxing evening with friends: cocktails, jacuzzi and Cristal d’Arques glasses! August is the perfect time to slow down, take a deep breath, and indulge in life’s little pleasures. If you’re one of those people who loves chilling with friends in robes, sipping cocktails in the garden, then this is for you. Bonus points if someone’s got a hot tub… jackpot. Welcome to the most stylish wellness night of the summer — Cristal d’Arques style. Why August is THE perfect month to unwind with friends The ultimate pause before things ramp up again August is that golden space between summer holidays and the back-to-school rush. You’re still in lazy mode, but reality is creeping up. That’s your cue to hit pause and treat yourself — before the to-do lists come back. Say goodbye to stress, hello to feel-good vibes Your body needs a reset, and nothing works better than good friends, warm water, and a beautifully crafted glass in hand. Let the fun flow and recharge with some real quality time. The ultimate trio: spa night + cocktails + beautiful glasses Hot tub in the backyard? Yes, please. If one of your friends owns a jacuzzi — or even just a cute inflatable pool (no judgment 😄) — that’s the perfect excuse. Add some fluffy towels, soft cushions, and you’re all set. Time to relax, laugh, and spill the latest love drama, messy bun required. Setting the chill vibe: music, candles & Cristal d’Arques Paris Soundtrack goals: smooth but not sleepy We’re talking R&B, lo-fi, or mellow indie.

But make it girl power. The real stars? Cristal d’Arques glasses Stylish, sparkling, sturdy. They’re made to shine by candlelight — perfect for elegant cocktails, even with your hair in a towel. The perfect glass for every drink A spritz? Grab the elegant Lady Diamond flute. A fruity mocktail? Go for a crystal tumbler.
