We were imagining a morning filled with favorite things and with this in mind, we put together the following things- a beautiful teapot, teacups, the most lovely night dress, moccasins, egg cups, a honey jar, a little glass creamer and handmade nail brushes for the morning routine. We received the beautiful night dress in a range of different colors and patterns- we show above the white version with navy blue stitching. These are so nice and would be wonderful worn with a big sweater in the winter, chunky socks and moccasins. The night dresses can be seen in our online shop in the gift section (they come in a matching fabric envelope pouch that ties with a bow!- perfect to give as a gift). The moccasins are our favorite house shoes- we've carried them for years and here they are- still a favorite after all that time. They are super soft and comfortable <3 These are also in the gift section. The teapot and teacups from Astier de Villatte are so wonderful. Add the sweet egg cups and you have everything you need for your morning cup of tea and oeuf a la coq! The tiny glass creamer is from Japan- we love the shape and size. The honey jar is a classic around the shop. And! The nail brushes are beautifully made in Japan by a small company that has been making them for over a century. They work well and last forever! Some of these pieces have been added to our home section and others like mentioned above are in the gift section. We are here if you have any questions :)

We have just finished unpacking the most wonderful shipment from Astier de Villatte. We will be adding a few more pieces to our online shop, and we wanted to share with you one of our favorite teapots <3 It's so sweet and lovely. Like all Astier pieces, it is made entirely by hand with a week long process of firing. A beauty! We also received other tea pots including a beautiful large tea pot with a rose, made in collaboration with John Derian. Not to mention a multitude of other special pieces! This tea pot along with tea cups and saucers will hopefully make it to our online shop by tonight :)

The fabulous wool polkadot and cotton floral throws in the photos below and above have just been added to our online shop in our newly added "home" section. There are wonderful napkin sets as well, bedding, cushions, Astier pieces, etc. Some favorite things! We have also begun a "gift" section where so far we have candles and incense from Astier available (including their new "Tucson" scent which is very special to us)! We'll be adding more to that section as time permits <3 Thank you all so much for your support of our small shop- we wouldn't be here without you! XOXO

We were so in love with all the colors, textures and patterns of the textiles we recently received. They were so fun to pick out and opening the box upon its arrival was just as much fun, all over again! We imagined these textiles being worn with classic clothing - we are always inspired in this way - mixing classic pieces with those that give it color, depth and richness. All the pieces above are 100% natural fibers- the plaid blankets, green throws and red polkadot throws are wool - the floral blankets are cotton (I will hopefully get these into our online shop today). The dresses, and the shirt Heather wears are by Gallego Desportes... Heather's skirt is by us. The shoes are of course by Repetto, and the socks are by Bonne Maison. The paper flowers are handmade by The Green Vase- Livia Cetti - her work is absolutely incredible. Each piece is a paper sculpture of the most beautiful color.
We hope you enjoy this series- it was really fun to create and we couldn't have done it without our good friends who modeled for us, and who are always a big support in creating these photo series. Thank you to Heather Walker, Isolde Edminster and Nikki Brzesinski. You are all an inspiration with what you bring to the camera and in no small way, to our world <3

We are excited to be bringing you a new photo series! We were very inspired by all the incredible textiles we have received at the shop- the textures and colors sent us dreaming :) We will be sharing it all with you very soon and in the meantime, how incredible are these boiled wool polkadot shawls/throws!? We are over the moon for them!
Modeling above are our good friends Heather Walker, Isolde Edminster and Nikki Brzesinski <3 <3 <3
