J. Crew Holiday Collection

Billie Dress in Tweed with Faux Fir Trim

 

J.Crew's holiday collection has some very elegant pieces with an Audrey Hepburn vibe I really love. This elegant tweed sheath with faux fur trim is one of my favorites.

The Hexagonal Blue & White Garden Stool

Legend Accents Hexagonal Silvie Floral Bird Garden Stool

 

I have always favored hexagonal Chinese garden stools. Hexagonal stools are often seen as more elegant than traditional drum or barrel shapes due to their geometric precision, rarer historical production, and intricate architectural detail.

Great Finds - Chinoiserie Nutcrackers

Southern Living Sweet Christmas Collection Floral Ceramic Nutcracker

These are my favorite holiday finds by far. The pink and green nutcrackers above look inspired by chinoiserie Rose Medallion and the nutcrackers below by blue and white Chinese porcelain. They are ceramic and hand-painted and available in 2 sizes.

A Ralph Lauren Christmas

In the blink of an eye we have gone from Halloween to getting ready for the Christmas holidays. A favorite look of mine for the holidays is combining tartan with chinoiserie. Tartan looks so great with blue and white Chinese porcelain.
