The Perfect Chinoiserie Summer Scent

NEST NEW YORK Bamboo Diffuser

 

Happy June! Although summer doesn't officially start until June 21, it sure feels like summer, especially here in Florida. My signature scent here at CCC is NEST NEW YORK Bamboo. With its notes of green, jasmine, and white lotus, it is a lovely choice for summer. It's clean, fresh, sophisticated, and quite unisex.

Pickleball

Tennis at Mini CCC

You may recall that I recently added tennis courts to mini CCC. And a couple of you correctly guessed that my tennis courts are repurposed Chefanie linen cocktail napkins. I learned that Chefanie also makes pickleball cocktail napkins. Unfortunately, they have been sold out everywhere including at Chefanie, Tuckernuck, and elsewhere.

New Charlotte Moss Book

Charlotte Moss: At Home in Virginia

 

I am a big Charlotte Moss fan and am thrilled that she has a new book coming out soon. Celebrated interior designer Charlotte Moss now calls Charlottesville, Virginia home. She purchased and renovated a country residence there to serve as her Southern base, and documented her gardens and the property in her book, Charlotte Moss: At Home in Virginia. She has written 10 previous books on style, flowers, and entertaining at home.

Tuckernuck's Heritage Collection

Heritage Madras Jagger Dress

Tuckernuck's Summer Heritage Collection has just launched and it's quite wonderful. It has patch madras, Nantucket Reds, chinos, and stripes. I love patch madras - I remember so many beloved patch madras pieces in my wardrobe growing up - a one piece swimsuit, a Bermuda bag, a wrap skirt - and the pieces just got better the more washed and worn they got.
