AM I the only person that gets excited when I see my "Benita Larsson Uploaded..." notification?! haha
Aww, that’s so sweet!
No, it’s the same for me :)
Nope! Me too! They're a treat! I'm sometimes a bit late but I enjoy the notification all the same.
No! 😆

Love your list! Summer faves: linen outfits, strawberries, all berries ( blueberries, black berries) and iced coffee, picnics at the park! Yumm on watermelon! Love that too.
That all sounds great!
Such a lovely and summer inspired video. Very good list of your favorites! Thanks Benita!
So good to see you and the kitties enjoying the summer!
Love your ideas! and the curls :)
Thanks so much! I love Teva sandles too. I’ve worn them for many years.
Thanks for all your good ideas and advice.
Tevas are my favorite I love their sandals love your original universal sandals
Love your list, your patio is so beautiful and the hosta's are absolutely amazing, they look so healthy! Summer is very hot here in central Florida so summer dresses and sandals and lots of water are my go to and definitely watermelon! Your hair is growing out nicely.😊💛
Love all the Hosta's in your little garden, they look so nice. X
I also like to wear linen clothing in the summer , but I do mind the wrinkles. My solution is a spray bottle with water. Put clothes on an hanger, spray generously on the wrinkly parts, let dry. This, I find, works great as long as your clothes do not require washing.
Thank you for shareing. I wish you a wonderful summer
Thanks Benita, great video as always. Wishing you a beautiful Summer, love your garden.
ARCHIE'S FLIP-FLOPS are my new favourite summer footwear. I live just outside of Melbourne, Australia where Archie's were invented so I was excited to see that they are available elsewhere for all of us with "wonky feet".
Love your videos! I live in a particularly foggy neighborhood in San Francisco, so central heat is an essential in the summertime, which feels very weird but necessary! For days when it's actually sunny and warm I really appreciate my recycled cotton picnic/beach blanket, as well as my Bedrock sandals. I've also been really into peaches lately!
I also love cross word puzzles, especially when we are at the beach. I agree on what you mentioned and I would just add a lot of iced coffee and of course sun cream or lotion for protection.
Thanks for sharing. That pot of white Cosmos is beautiful. I love watermelon salad. My version has mint instead of basil.
Me encanta el estilo nórdico y es precioso el jardin!! Gracias por compartir
Nine essentials from of your list are my summer essentials too! I was never good at crosswords, but I do Griddler puzzles instead. I have the same problem with my legs though - easily tan on my upper body but legs stay pasty. Must give self-tan a go this summer :)
Lovely video !!! Thank you x
Your hair is growing in so cute! You look wonderful! Oh, 100% on prescription sunglasses. Love mine
Linen is just so wonderful to wear 🙌🏻
Me too. Love her videos no matter the topic. So soothing.
I look forward to all the fresh fruits of summer. Watermelon and cantaloupe 🍈 🍉as well as all berries 😋. I also love opening my windows to let the fresh air in and hear the birds. Summer walks and visiting flower gardens and farmers markets and flea markets! Our winters are long and cold so I cherish these warm sweet summers!
Its very HOT in Texas during the summer which makes staying indoors most of the time come June -sept. Normally I spend a lot of time outside, but hot weather is not my friend. If i do go out for walks its done early morning or late evening. I love linen as well during the summer months. I’m going to look into the water flask you mentioned. I currently use a hydro flask thats great for the gym 32 oz, but for other outings its a bit hard to carry. I love summer reading as well, but I’m more of a hardcover book person, but trying out some audio books as well. Enjoy your summer and be safe.
I find this house with a garden beautiful, I also love the white kitchen and its countertops.
Hello from Tokyo, Japan! Love to watch your video every time！！
My summer essential is definitely Sun protection umbrella. I cannot walk in town without it!!
I live in Florida and wear linen in the spring and summer all the time! It’s great for hot weather and is easy to care for. Enjoy your summer ☀️
Beautifully shot, as always. Thank you Benita for a few minutes of calm and useful info 🙏
Hi Benita, So happy I found your videos. I find them very calming and that is a wonderful state of being. I live in California and my Summer essentials are sunscreen, a good book, cucumber water, a cool cotton sundress and local fruit and veg from the farmers market.Happy Summer!🌸🌴☀️
Wonderful videos ALL, thank you! This summer essentials list is perfect. I may add sun protection lip balm and a cooling neck scarf. Muji has them in linen with an opening for a cooling gel pack.
Love to watch your videos. Summer faves are: early morning bike rides, linen clothing, sunglasses, iced tea, growing tomatoes and herbs in pots, and reading under the umbrella on my patio.
I love that list!
I look forward to your videos! I appreciate your esthetic and would love to emulate it more. I have simplified and it has brought so much peace to my life.
Hi Benita. Very good list.
I’m with you on the prescription glasses. When I replace my distance glasses I’m definitely getting prescription sunglasses as well, for out and about and driving. I also have reading glasses but always sit in the shade because my skin burns easily. I’ve seen that water bottle before. Lovely design. I use filtered water but that’s good for when your out and run out of filtered water. I should buy one. Haven’t seen flip flops with arch support- excellent. I only bought mine for the shower at the gym. Flat ones give me a sore instep. I love the Teva sandals. Didn’t know that’s why they’re called but I’ve always thought they look good and are perfect for summer. I’m a fan of linen too. Natural fabrics breathe and it always looks good. Keep enjoying the watermelon. It has excellent health benefits I recently found out - not just for hydration!
I also love 🍉 especially living in the tropics. Will also try the watermelon, feta cheese salad.
I love these videos xx
I'm so happy to hear that!
Love the video! In addition to the things you listed, I love planting anything I can in my yard. I have a small garden, but can spend the day there dreaming and planting. Thank you for sharing your list with us!
Gardening is such a nice pastime!
Definitely going to check out those flip flops! I need the arch support as well.
They’re so comfortable while still looking like regular flip flops!
Thank you for your summer essentials vlog. My essentials are wet-wipes, water bottle, hair-ties to put hair up and loose, comfortable clothing. Greetings from Tennessee! Next week our area will hit 100 degrees (will fill like it's 110). P.s. sunscreen.
Benita, you look so well ! I love all your video’s and products. You have an amazing apartment in a beautiful city.
Let’s not forget those kitties ❤️, so precious and inquisitive.
One of my favorite shows, happy to watch this video and thanks for the upload....,,.
All great stuff :) Specially the shoes I will jump on with my neuropathy - Have a great summer.. and keep them coming :)
Thank you so much!😊
Loving your videos x my summer essentials also include sandals and yes I end up with the sandal tan at the end of the season!. I also wear shorts a lot during the summer so have a similar tan further up the leg! And I totally agree with you about crosswords (or suduko). Keeps the brain active.
Thank you for sharing x
Love your addition of shorts!
Another lovely relaxing video ! We most definitely have a lot in common 😃!! Great minds think alike ☺️. I have to say however my next purchase will be a pair of prescription sunglasses 😎 Thanks Benita, have a lovely day .🌺🌷🌺
I love this video, it made me think of my own summer essentials. Water bottle as well for me. I agree with you on the linen shirts. My first linen t-shirt I bought unknowingly. They were on sale so I bought two and only when I washed them did I realize they were a linen blend. Now I am always on the look out for affordable linen pieces to add to my summer wardrobe, now I have dresses and linen shorts. It’s always cotton or linen fabric for me in the summer. Shorts are an essential for me. I have two in rotation during the summer. One other essential for me are sandals. I try my best not to wear shoes in the summer months as I feel my toes need a break from being cramped in socks and shoes all winter long so I have sandals of all types from Birkenstocks to very formal sandals with a low heel for more formal settings.
For woolie slippers, I highly recommend Halflingers! They have the cork bottom like Birkenstock, so the arch support is good, and they are sturdy enough to go outside on a dry day. I live in Juneau, Alaska, which has a very wet climate. Also, they’re very warm. Love your videos!
Love your videos; thank you 🌸
Thank you so much for watching them!
Loving the summer list, here from the heart of winter. Watermelon, mint and feta is definitely one of my summer faves too.
Always amazed by the opposite seasons!
Love this list!!
Thank you so much!
A clipboard! Such a good idea. I wear Chaco sandals in summer. Similar to Tevas but more sturdy for hiking & have great arch support. Hi Mini & Bonus!
Thank you so much for watching and sharing!
Strawberries and raspberries r my go to in summer also love making green smoothies -great video thank you
Thank you so much for watching!
Love this! I too live in linen clothes during the summer as I’m in a southern state in the United States and it gets insanely hot here.
Have heard of the temperatures in your area! Stay cool!
love your list
have a nice summer ☺️🌞🌞🌞
Thank you so much! Have a lovely summer you as well!
Thank you for this awsome Video .
I like ♥️😘
I love your garden patio with the greens, whites and silvery tones. That water bottle looks wonderful especially travelling. I got a pair of Teva sandals last year, quick favourite. Good mineral sunscreen and light cotton knit clothing.
Taking it on the train tomorrow!🙌🏻
I loved this video especially because you filmed your beautiful patio and Mini and Bonus. I’m very sun sensitive so a wide brimmed hat, sunglasses and sunscreen are my summer essentials. I need to try your salad. It looks delicious.
Thanks for sharing yours!
Oh…linen. I’ve been admiring linen clothing for summer. I’m going to go for it!
I would say yes to all of these and the water bottle is a fantastic idea. Love watermelon, feta salad and I add cucumber to this. Banana and mango smoothies are a must too
I started out with cucumber in it and then pared it down🤣
I’ m so happy to give us the brand of the flip flop with arches I was just what I looking for this summer. I bought black one so I’m waiting for them and will give you some comments when I will receive them….thank you
Thank you for your gorgeous video..I live in Australia but staying a few months in Lisbon...we are practically neighbours 😀
Really enjoyed your video. Especially seeing Mini and Bonus! Adorable cats. The water bottle looks super, I will try it. It’s getting quite warm here in the UK, so it will be a good thing to have. 🐈⬛🐾❤️xxxxxxx
Thank you so much for watching!🐯🦁
Another inspiring and helpful video! My shared summer faves are: crossword puzzles and Wordle (year-round, and Waffle, another fun challenge for word nerds!), Tevas (nearly year-round, as I live in South Florida), watermelon-feta-basil for a most refreshing summer dinner... I have prescription sunnies, too, to keep my baby blues happy and protected. 😎 Here's to a lovely summer! 🥂
Love your list, Marsha!
Love your black tevas they are my favorite sandals to wear
I love my tevas so much!
Hi Benita
I love your pation, i remember how it was in your early videos when you moved into your apartment. It turn out to be a cosy little area to chill😎 with all those green plants. Really lovely. 👏👏👏
Thank you so much!
I definitely agree with you about sunglasses (prescription for me too!), water bottle, foot file (such a game changer for soft feet!), and linen clothing. For me, I'd have to add comfortable walking sandals (though I prefer to go barefoot at home - no socks in summer, ugh), cute shorts, iced tea, all the fresh fruit and veggies I can eat, and the biggest essential for health: sunscreen. Here in the Pacific Northwest of the US (Seattle specifically), I believe our weather is very similar to Stockholm at times. We cherish the sun and warmth when we get it and Seatttleites love to get outside all year round, but summer is extra special, of course. It's June 14 and it's still only in the 50-60s F here (about 10-18 C), so we're still waiting for proper summer yet! :)
All these essentials are great! Watermelon is a top one for me as well. Also a fan of some sort to keep the air moving. A good sunscreen is a given too of course. It’s winter here in New Zealand so this video is a great escape, thanks Benita!
Always a bit odd to know it’s winter where you are while it’s summer here!
Always a wonderful time watching your videos. Thanks for sharing…🤍
Thank you so much for watching!
Great video!! So many good things here. And of course, the real stars - the kitties!
Ah yes, didn’t mention them since they’re a given!😊
I always love seeing your garden, its the one thing I miss so much where I live.....we have a roof top garden but it is not the same as just walking out to your own patio.......I also love linen in the hot weather and don’t mind paying a little extra for it as it lasts, I took a look at the water bottle you mentioned however it was $142 on Amazon and I just didn’t want to pay that much..........like you I also have bad arches so I wear OOFOS around the house , they are an orthopaedic flip flop that gives lots of support...I have a pair of Birkenstock as well but I find I can’t wear them on the street anymore as I have really bad arthritis in my feet......I don’t do audio books, but again I love a good crime novel.........have a great week...........Donna in Toronto
Thanks for sharing your list!
Because of you, Benita, I ordered Archies - white and black. They are my favorites and I only wear them indoors. Thanks for the suggestion!
Aren’t they so great?!
I use to have a routine of walking for years but I have had planters fasciitis for over a year now can seem to heal it up to walk again and I have many different shoes but none keeps pain away long enough to get in a good walk. I use to be a flip flop queen but I never tried Archie’s, I hope I get relief from these, I need another good inside pair. Thanks for sharing
Prescription sunglasses are so wonderful! You look so pretty in yours 😊
Thank you! So happy to finally have a pair!😎
Love you Benita ❤
I agree about prescription sunglasses, once you get them you'll wonder how you ever got along without them! Summer fave: Ice Cream cones eaten on the front steps with good company while watching people out strolling in the street enjoying the nice weather.
I know, what took me so long?
IT'S SO NICE TO SEE YOU EACH AND EVERY TIME!
Aww, thank you so much!
Dearest Benita, I simply love your channel! ♡ Could watch it all day long. 😄
Aww, thank you, that’s so sweet!
Great items thanks for sharing...and I now was watermelon and feta for lunch 🤔😋... i better get some later ...👍
Superb inspiring video, as always, dear Benita! Keep up your excellent work! best from the USA
Glad you enjoyed it!
Footbed sandals and a water bottle are definitely summer essentials!
Those really are essential aren’t they!
Hello from 🇨🇦. I agree with several of your summer favorites. I have a really high prescription and I just got prescription sunglasses so I can read on the beach and my south facing patio in the summer. In Canada most people remove shoes at the door too. As I also have feet issues, my go to foot wear is Birkenstocks year round. Watermelons! Yes! My family doesn’t like watermelons so it all mine😊. Linen clothes is a new addition to my wardrobe but needs to be blended with cotton so it isn’t too scratchy. Will we get a wardrobe fashion show of your linen pieces? For me hats are essential because I get sunstroke easily and sometimes I might even pull out a colorful umbrella😊. I love your channel and look forward to your videos. Thanks for continuing to post great content. 😁
All my linen pieces have been modeled (🤣) in one video or other already or will make appearances soon I’m sure. That’s what you get from a small wardrobe😊
Great summer ideas!! 😎
Thank you so much!
Video veramente carino ❤️ per me un buon libro ( cartaceo però) da leggere sotto l’ombrellone è il latte di mandorla. Baci 🇮🇹
The garden looks great! The plants get so big already!🥰
AI absolutely adore that garden too!
Yes, it’s gotten lush this year!
Oh my! Iv got the same Tevas (for 7 years old) and the same Birks! Looove it:)
I had almost forgotten how much I enjoy crossword puzzles. Thank you for reminding me!
They’re such a simple pleasure!😊
Gracias
Eating outdoors. Just love that 🦋🐝🐞
That is so nice!
My hat! I love it to keep the sun out of my eyes since I don’t enjoy sunglasses.
I decluttered my tiva sandals a few years back as i never wore them anymore. But i wish i had them back again now. They ARE good for walking.
I do love mine!
Do Mini and Bonus enjoy kitty crossword puzzles on the lounger too? Summer essentials: a pedicure with a fun color of polish, picking strawberries with my kids, ice tea with lemonade, swimming in a lake, boat rides, farmers markets and eating outdoors for every meal possible!!! ❤️ Amy fran Minnesota
I love your list!
Loved your video. Thank you so much for sharing. My summer essentials are ear buds [for listening to my old time rock n roll], my kindle books [I'm not an audiobook person. I find it annoying], my cotton tee shirts and linen pants, a sake cocktail [for sitting on my terrace, watching the sun go down], red toenail polish, a shaved head [it's humid in NYC and I sweat alot]. There you have my summer essentials. 🤣
Thanks so much for sharing! Very intrigued by the sake cocktail!
@@BenitaLarsson It's like a martini. All you need is sake, a slice of ginger, gin, ice cubes and an olive. Yummy! 🥰
Another relaxing video - thanks! Here in Sydney, Australia, one of my absolute essentials is sunscreen (50+ waterproof), along with sunglasses, swimsuit and beach towel. 😎🇦🇺
Yes, I can see that you would need that!
Definitely need sunscreen I’m in Sydney too :)
I’m not a fan of pure linen as everything ends up looking so creased. But here in the UK I have been buying loose fitting trousers and shorts in a Linen mix (approx 50% linen). They keep their shape so much better and I still stay nice and cool 😎
Bonjour Benita, j'espère que vous allez bien? Merci pour vos vidéos avec vos deux amours de chats. Du Québec-Canada

Enjoy your reading sunglasses! I plan to get some...and also some sunglasses with my driving prescription. Greetings from the UK :-)
They really have been game changers!
I live in Central Florida so, during the summer, I just stay indoors. This year is already hotter than usual and it's pretty unbearable. But I spent 10 years in Stockholm and absolutely loved the summertime there, whether it got warm or not. This was a lovely video!
Those temperatures must be so difficult to cope with!
Greetings from the Treasure Coast of Florida ! Yes the weather has been brutally hot!
Yes, watermelon is a go-to in summer. Hmm refreshing 🥰
So good when it's hot outside!
I tried to get watermelon at our local grocery store and they were charging $15 a slice. #Inflation
@@Lisa-ym1si No way! That's expensive
@@RoselomonTV Yup, I was reaching out for it and yanked my hand back like NOPE get some strawberries!
