Today I’m Loving: Personalized Paper

I’m having one of those never-ending crazy days (weeks, months, year…) and thinking that personalized writing goods would make it all better.

Not really, but the thought of taking the time to handwrite a heartfelt note seems like a welcome break to these technology warped hands of mine.

And, psssst.  Wouldn’t a personalized gift like these make the perfect holiday surprise for a friend?

Today I’m Loving: Muji

I’m headed to New York City this week for some research and shopping and CAN’T WAIT to see what’s new in-stores!  One of my most favorite stores to see in New York, London or Tokyo is Muji.  They make and carry the most simple, well-designed and affordable home goods, office wares and clothing that I can’t ever leave empty handed.

I’m hopelessly addicted to their ball point pens and craft paper envelopes. I have drawers full both at home and at the office.

I love to buy their notebooks in bulk and personalize them with Japanese tape or rubber stamps to give as gifts.

And some other faves: the uncloggable spray bottle; city in a bag wooden blocks make perfect the perfect souvenir gift for kids both big and small; softest socks!

Can’t wait to see what they have in store this week!

 

 

Today I’m Loving: Fall Home Catalogs

The fall catalogs have started arriving – and I’m loving all of the natural, rustic accents adorning their pages.  I’m always on the hunt for a few pieces to add to my space to update and make it feel new for the season.  A few that have caught my eye so far.

I hadn’t checked out a RH catalog lately – and was smitten with their styling and home accents.  Lots of beautiful accents and furniture pieces that would add a perfect rustic touch to any space.

French Glass Cloches; Resin Antelope Antlers; Parisien Club Side TableFishing Weights; Copenhagen Chair; Pharmacy Lamp.

Next up, Viva Terra.  I’ve often bought gifts from this retailer and have always loved their style.  But this fall’s book turned me on to the amazing furniture pieces they have, as well as a few decorative objects that I’m coveting.

The mix of warm colors, rich textures and industrial accents is just perfect in these pages.  I adore the trend in printmaker’s inspired sideboards here and at RH.

Porthole Mirror Collection; Vintage London Bus RollSawhorse Table; French Bottle Lamp; Mushroom Stool; Meadowflower Rug.

And finally, my favorite home pieces from the Neiman Marcus‘ fall home book.  Luscious and luxurious…these pieces are perfect eye candy.

Lots of wonderful options to bring a bit of the fall trends into your home!  Unexpected color, rustic accents, vintage finds – all great ways to freshen your space in style.
