One of the charitable causes that’s dear to me… The Discovery Shop (an upscale resale shop which benefits The American Cancer Society) They are in need of gently used, small furniture pieces (excluding upholstered items). For larger pieces, pick up may be available. They accept donations of men’s and women’s spring and summer clothing, jewelry, …
Tivoli Songbook
I recently purchased a Tivoli Songbook in green, specifically meant to play relaxing spa music in my bathroom. This was a Ruelala sample sale purchase. DH introduced me to the wonders of Tivoli. I bought him a brown PAL and clock radio a few years ago as gifts. Tivoli consistently offers great sound and design. …
Studded Belts
I don’t just consider belts an object of necessity, but something that could be fashionable and beautiful. I love studded belts. My first studded belt was purchased from Calvin Klein’s Outlet at Woodbury Commons, New York. It was for a time, the only belt I wore with all my denim. Studs, simulated crystals, and an …
Beach Cottage Decorative Pillows
I’ve been fantasizing about owning a pretty little beach cottage lately- you know the type… an artist’s retreat, exteriors with sun-reflecting whites and playful hues, and nautical themed interiors. Saw some reasonably priced pillows on Ideeli a couple of weeks ago and below are my favorites from Trilogy’s sale. I especially love the starfish pattern …
Capodimonte
Recently purchased the new Shabby Chic Interiors hardcover by Rachel Ashwell and fell in love with her vintage pale pink capodimonte jewelry box. I was on the search for something similar and found one just like it, but in pale blue. Unfortunately the seller forgot to end the listing since she gave this pretty box …
La Fiorentina
My mind is still swirling over the sumptuous beautiful La Fiorentina furs offered at yesterday’s Gilt sample sale. If I had to pick two from the pile, it would definitely be, the mink slip-through muffler in blue and the mink fluted wrap in black. To be fair it was a tough choice, leaving one almost …
Still Nuts Over Santi ;)
Santi makes the most perfect little clutches and evening purses. I could go on and on about them and I have in previous posts so I’ll just post some precious little pics and leave it at that… I love the multi-color sequins and leather doughnut applique styles! So pretty and goes with everything! Santi is …
Soup & Sandwich Ceramic Tray Duo
Another nice product I saw at UncommonGoods, was their soup and sandwich ceramic tray duo. Too often DH and I are eating meals while watching T.V. I know; bad habit… but I guess trays like these were made for people like us. *Photocredit: http://www.uncommongoods.com
Paper Bag Vases
I was going through a paper pile and found a catalog feature regarding paper bag vases. These handmade porcelain vases are by artist Michel Harvey. I tend to find smaller vases much more useful for my needs than bigger ones just because I like to buy a bouquet of a dozen blooms and split them …
Lucky Day!
Last night before going to sleep, I took a quick glance at the Anthro online sales section and was disappointed to see the Zois Bellflower (grey) bag still at full price. I had been keeping an eye on that bag for what seems like months. By early afternoon the next day, I noticed some new …
