Luckily for me, Serena and Lily is having a 20% off…

adding fall touches to your entertaining basics
I’m probably the only person on the planet that isn’t high fiving fall’s impending arrival (I’m always holding on to the end of summer with both hands), but this year, despite the steady 90 degree temps, I’ve already started to introduce little touches of fall to my daily dinnerware and serving pieces.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I’ve been on a roll the last four days, cleaning, organizing and tossing a ton of crap in our garage during nap and bedtime. Nothing feels quite as amazing as crossing off every single item on your to-do list, am I right? The one thing I still…

I was going through some old shelter mags over the weekend and found an issue of House Beautiful from November 2004 featuring the Hampton’s Showhouse designed that year by Ralph Lauren.

pillow picks for fall – cc deux vie
I don’t know about you guys, but the (somewhat) change in the seasons has me wanting to tone things down even more in my house and add some muted, tone-on-tone color. My first thought is always to swap out some of my throw pillows for some fresh new color and pattern that’s just a tad…
