Welcome Spring!

Spring is here! Well, sort of.  As some of you may have heard or experienced, NYC and surrounding areas got hit with blizzard Stella today (snow day!) but that didn't stop me from looking into what new spring lines are out for some of my favorite stores! I'm thinking we will see even more mix of materials, texture and soft geometric patterns this spring. There's a lot more to come but here are a bunch of my favorite new spring items... I am seriously loving the Anthropologie Live-Edge Oakwood Bed with visible butterfly joinery...which one is your favorite??

Fall In Love With Your Table Setting

Happy October everyone! I haven't posted in so long mainly because I've been home in New York visiting family. We even had our own early Thanksgiving dinner because some of us live so far away and it will be a while until we are all together again. It made me think of how I am going to set up my own table for Thanksgiving. There are so many options when it comes to decorating your dining table for the fall - where do you even start? Centerpieces, dinnerware, &  tablecloths, oh my! Here's some inspiration to help you decide this autumn season just in time for Thanksgiving!

I love how simple yet festive this setting is. I especially love

the clean, fresh look of the white dinnerware and napkins but you

could also use other colors - rich reds, blues or greens. Mini pumpkins for 

a centerpiece just works and tying up the napkin with hemp string 

and adding wheat completes this fall look.

This table has a rustic look with the stump candle holders

and wood chargers (can be a great DIY, too!). Mini pumpkins

 in different sizes and rich colors is the cherry on top

for this fall inspired table setting.

This setting has a touch of fall with the feather and lavender 

tied in hemp with the word "gather". This is something that

you can do to instantly create a fall table setting without

having to buy all new dinnerware and centerpieces.

These settings and centerpieces look gorgeous on this rustic

table but would look stunning on a more formal table

as well. No pumpkins are needed to make you think of fall - 

the wheat in a vase, hemp table runner, fresh flowers and elegant

candles definitely has your mind thinking of fall family gatherings.

I love the vibrant, autumn-colored flowers against the

teal table runner (and the fact that it's ikat print). This table 

setting can be used year round - just switch out the 

flowers to go with any holiday or special occasion.

I really love all of these photos - they are all such beautiful settings.

It definitely makes me excited to decorate my table for Thanksgiving coming up

where it will be my boyfriends and I's first Thanksgiving dinner together in our own

home! I wish you all happy fall table setting :)
