PopMat Paper Placemats
15 years ago
I absolutely love these PopMats Paper Placemats! I found them in The Cool Hunter earlier this week. Inspired by children’s pop-up books, these recycled paper placemats add charm and function to your table setting.
Each pack contains 10 of same design and color. Made from recycled paper with minimum 30% postconsumer fiber. Available in 15 designs including Butterflies, Balloons, Cake and Tree to name a few. The placemats are available in multiple color options.
Osborn Design Studio Jazzies
15 years ago
Having a hard time finding unique accessories? Shift the focus downward with bright, bold shoes by NYC-based design duo Osborn. Not only are they super cute, they are also super comfy.
The fair trade, jazz-inspired oxfords (called jazzies) and booties come in crazy patterns ranging from polka-dot floral and wool tweed to an in-your-face safari print.
All of Osborn Design’s shoes are handmade in Guatemala from old blankets and clothes, African kente cloth, and vintage handwoven fabrics, and all have comfy leather soles and cotton lining.
Organic Ornaments from Land-Rich
15 years ago
I’m a sucker for earthy, organic seasonal decor. These ornaments from Brooklyn-based shop Land-Rich seem to have sprung from the imagination of a holiday woodland fairy? ($10 each)
I picture these ornaments suspended from the branches of a Douglas fir tree decorated only with white lights.
Perhaps carefully stack a few in a bowl and display them on a table set with burlap and raw linen.
This is the debut offering from Land-Rich, a shop ‘inspired by raw nature and those who embrace it’. A new collection of pieces will be available each season. What a perfect way to welcome the outdoors in!
Stacking Rings from House of Harlow
15 years ago
House of Harlow is one of my favorite jewelry lines this year. I’ve talked about them on a few different occasions. These Pave Stackable Rings are very classy, and are a cheap way to update your look! The medium width ring is $35, while the thicker ring is $47. If you do intend on stacking one of these rings with another ring, you should go for the medium width option…stacking thick rings just leaves your finger looking fat or bloated and should be avoided at all costs.
(Lori, I’d like the Pave Thick Stackable Ring in a size 8 please!)
The Dior Phone
15 years ago
Have some extra cash stashed away? Buy yourself one of Dior Cell Phones. These are dumb phones, they have no smart technologies that I’m aware of, and they still retail for about $5000 depending on where you pick it up. There are two different collections to choose from, The Diamants and Cristal Saphir. Splurge here www.diorphones.com
Book Bust: Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky
15 years ago
In 1913, the young couturiere Coco Chanel attended the premiere of Igor Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring. Seven years later, she invited Stravinsky and his family for a summer at her villa…and a hot love affair. As Stravinsky enjoys a new burst of creativity and Chanel brings forth her own revolutionary creation – the perfume Chanel No. 5 – their love threatens to overtake work, family and life.
COCO CHANEL AND IGOR STRAVINSKY (Riverhead Trade Paperback Original) by Ben Greenhalgh is now available at Amazon.com.
Alice + Olivia open an Online Store
15 years ago
Lovers of girly party dresses, leggings, tops, etc. will appreciate this news tidbit: Alice + Olivia has finally launched an eCommerce site. The brand has long been available from other online retailers, but its about time they get their own site. And while the site still have a few kinks to work out, I am very impressed that they were able to get this launched before holiday – now lets hope they can ship orders placed before Christmas!
The site includes live blog by designer Stacey Bendet. If you’re still looking for a holiday party dress, I suggest checking out what A+O has to offer.
