Lillian August Rattan Lamp

Did you know that the high end home furnishings designer label Lillian August has an exclusive line for T.J. Maxx/Marshalls/HomeGoods? I have several pieces at CCC and they are beautiful.

Vintage Blue and White

J.Crew Original 1988 Rollneck Sweater

 

I have been a fan of J.Crew for decades. I am super excited that they have brought back a favorite - their iconic cotton rollneck sweater originally introduced in the summer of 1988. This is a great summer sweater. I plan to size up to wear it as a coverup for breezy days at the beach and boating. I would size up if you want an oversized relaxed look - the reviews says they have sized this down a bit.

"First introduced in 1988, the classic style is back in a comfortable-yet-compact cotton that we borrowed from our men's collection (and we love for its long-lasting quality). It comes in a subtly relaxed fit, with ribbed trim at the cuffs and hem and an easy roll at the neckline that earned the sweater its name."

Flower Arranging Chinoiserie Style

Caspari

This is a favorite flower vase of mine and it is quite Chinoiserie Chic made of natural bamboo. Flower arranging could not be easier - just place a stem or two in each of the five glass tubes.

This artful design puts a spin on traditional vases, placing blooms in a line side-by-side. The result is un expected and eye-catching: a neat row of elegant blooms framed in bamboo.

Poppies For Spring

Crimson Poppy Cotton Linen Portia Dress

 

I have always loved dresses with beautiful back details. "This dress has it all. Sure to turn heads wherever you go, the Crimson Poppy Cotton Linen Portia Dress is truly one of a kind. There are so many gorgeous details here that we don't know where to start! Our favorite might be the exaggerated yet elegant bow details on the back that adds a dramatic twist. With a flattering A-line silhouette that can work for every occasion and every body type, we love styling this maxi with heels and clutch for warm weather weddings and elevated events alike." And it is lined in cotton.
