Classic Cool

February 23, 2015 by jessica 13 Comments

Saturdays are for playing favorites and, for me, that usually means turning to the classics. Nothing feels more effortless than a striped sweater and a pair of cropped pants (with plenty of stretch!). I actually received the sweater from Garnet Hill last week and it’s already one of my favorite pieces. It’s unbelievably soft and didn’t lose its shape through the course of the day. (I would have worn it again on Sunday if we weren’t getting together with the same people!)

I’ll admit that I didn’t know much about Garnet Hill prior to receiving my sweater. The brand was established in 1976 and was known for introducing high-quality flannel sheets to the marketplace through its mail-order catalog. Even though its product offerings have expanded drastically (Lilly Pulitzer bedding, anyone?), Garnet Hill still prides itself on offering products with fine natural fibers. This cashmere sweater is no different and can I just point out that the stripes match up on the side seams? You know that’s basically the universal sign of good quality. 😉

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
