I am SO excited to announce that the shop is open! This dream has been a long time coming + I am thrilled to finally share my products with you. Starting out small - a few holiday + winter goods along with some of my everyday faves. Looking forward to building and evolving things over time. HUGE thanks to all of you for following the blog, your kind words, and overall amazing support. So, without further ado… SHOP!

I am a big fan of packaging in general but I especially love when it does all the work for you. As in, no extra wrapping required. Spotted this type-heavy, pine green packaging and couldn’t resist it for ye olde stocking. Just add twine.
Buy them online here. They come in all kinds of magical colors (the turquoise is my other fave).

“Don’t you love New York in the fall? It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address.” – Joe Fox, You’ve Got Mail
There’s nothing more beautiful than New York in the fall. So beautiful!

Helloooo! Beautiful, awesome, water-absorbent, bright-colored linens that can be used as a towel, table-runner, shawl, beach blanket, throw to cover that ugly stain on your couch? Sign me up! Plus, these awesome (have I said that yet because they are awesome) fabrics were around in the days of Turkish Baths—I think that one-ups the Good Housekeeping guarantee. Here are a few of my favorites:
[Basic French], $40
The Kenza [Fouta Lifestyle], $40
[Neiman Marcus], $62-$72

[Scents and Feel], $51
[Indigo Traders], $35
PS: Makes a great housewarming gift. Just sayin’
Still hanging on to those last days of warm weather? Me, too. Dip into Design*Sponge’s Summer newspaper—now available for download—for the perfect reminder of what it’s like to live in the land of surf and sand.

Steve Jobs, if you are out there, this one’s for you.
