A Cold Winter's Night

Living With Flowers by Aerin Lauder

 
Aerin Lauder's newest book will be released on February 25, 2025, and you can pre-order it here. Isn't the cover stunning?

"Legendary hostess and style icon Aerin Lauder shares ideas for how to bring flowers into our home, entertaining and décor, inspiring both special occasions and the everyday moments with beauty and joy.

Aerin Lauder’s love of flowers is deeply personal, being passed down to her by her celebrated grandmother, Estée Lauder, as well as her mother, Jo Carole Lauder. From fresh bouquets to floral patterns on wallpaper, fabric, and tabletop pieces, in Living with Flowers Lauder shares the many ways she brings flowers into her home. Whether it’s an arrangement of daisies in the kitchen to welcome friends or family for dinner, or a single stem on her desk to brighten the workday, flowers are an essential part of her home and her lifestyle.

With creative ideas for designing arrangements—from embracing the simple elegance of a neutral palette or incorporating a whimsical mix of color, to enhancing your holiday décor with seasonal blooms—Lauder generously shares her favorite tips and secrets.

Lauder also takes readers through her homes, showing how she brings the garden indoors through her decor. Elegant floral wallpaper in the dining room feels sophisticated and timeless, floral drapes in the bedroom are traditional and luxurious, while her contemporary floral-patterned tabletop collections add effortless, yet modern florals to her entertaining.

Reflecting her unique blend of beauty and ease, Lauder’s floral designs and decor offer endlessly inspiring ideas for how readers can integrate flowers into their own homes to create inviting and personal spaces."

One of her previous books that I love is Entertaining Beautifully and it is wonderful. I highly recommend it.


Entertaining Beautifully by Aerin Lauder

Winter storm Enzo is bringing snow to the Southeast and places like New Orleans, Houston, and even the panhandle of Florida that are experiencing historic snow. Cuddling with a beautiful coffee table book and a ChappyWrap blanket is a great way to hunker down. No snow here in South Florida, but it is nippy. I had a wool jacket on yesterday and even turned my heat on which is a rarity. 

ChappyWrap - once you have one, you will never sleep with another blanket -

I also desperately want these pink monkey pajamas. A Valentine's Day present for myself me think. You have to love the pearls and earrings and rings with pajamas -

And for some armchair shopping indoors, Tuckernuck's Sample Sale continues with prices up to 80% off.

New styles were just added to the sale.

  1. 😄 Re the jewelry with the pretty pink pajamas...well, why the heck not? It's too cold to go out here in DC and many other places too, so wear those pearls at home! Marilyn Monroe wore them instead of pajamas.
