Meg Braff Collaboration with Weezie

 

Meg Braff has just launched a fabulous collaboration with Weezie — a dream collaboration celebrating days poised poolside in Palm Beach. Drawing inspiration from Meg's Kips Bay Palm Beach bathroom drenched in her Madame Butterfly print, this is a punched - up, pattern - forward collection.

You have likely been to a hotel where the bathroom has towels to use for removing your makeup so as to not to soil the white towels. 

Monogrammed Towels - My Favorite Best Buys

Ralph Lauren Payton

I love monogrammed towels and for many years have taken advantage of this wonderful Bed and Bath Sale with FREE MONOGRAMS! Yes, not only are the towels on a great sale, but the monogramming is free.

Favorite Finds

CCC

You know how well stripes and chinoiserie go together = pretty much a marriage made in heaven. I discovered some gorgeous 100% European linen Canadian made towels that I use as guest towels in the bathrooms, dinner napkins, kitchen towels, bar towels, pretty much everywhere! I love setting the table with one of my chinoiserie china patterns, bamboo flatware, and these as napkins. They look amazing with my new gold bamboo flatware.

Good Vibrations

Kate Sade Towels from HG

Yesterday was an A plus!!!!!!!!!!!!

I decided I needed a little break. So I took a carload of things over to Venice and interacted with my darling painters. Then I headed to my stone/granite place that did a wonderful job on all the counters here. I know exactly what I want - a gorgeous black stone for the guest bathroom and a white marble type look for the master bath. Paula led me to their remnants - in the stone area was the most beautiful slab in the world - black with orange veins for the guest bath. She said it was one of their highest end stones. My wallpaper will love it!!!!!!!! Done.

Then we headed over to quartz. I reminded her I need over 7 feet. She had a quartz remant that is perfect. Hint -  I need something very understated to go with my GORGEOUS blue and white dragon Chinese porcelain vessel sinks. It is white with very subtle grey veining. I love the vessel sinks I used here. Do not try to dissuade me from vessel sinks - I have used them here for 9 months and love them. Beautiful and easy to clean. I will be there today to approve the templates and will try to take photos.

And the price for the two bathroom counters was like free. Seriously inexpensive. Remnants are priced ridiculously cheap. About 75% less. They are doing the templates at 9 AM today and install is Wednesday. I am thrilled!

Then I went to my unbelievable HomeGoods and got a boatload of these gorgeous Kate Spade towels, hand towels, and washcloths. Great price, love the color. I will find a local monogrammer. I find that with the vast majority of online stores that monogram, I dislike their font and style choices. The monograms are too small and too boring. This way I can choose my own. I got 4 bath towels, 4 hand towels, and 4 washcloths for $64 and I had a $30 certificate to use. Can't beat that!

I found all sorts of other great things at HG as well - coral pink bath sponges, a Kate Spade book, lobster beach towels, I had a blast.

This afternoon my handyman is coming over to see what needs to be done.

I just ordered these banana leaf dog beds for Harper and Margot.

On a more serious note. Truthfully. I have always had a happy life where I felt the universe was on my side. Things almost always worked out well. Since meeting GG, everything that could go wrong, has gone wrong. GG is a magnet for bad karma and most of it he brings on himself. Really, all of it he brings on himself. I got caught in the maelstrom. Now, once again, the good vibes have returned to my life. Things go right. I am very thankful.

Towels

Danielle Rollins

I have always had white towels monogrammed with my initials, usually in blue. But after seeing Danielle Rollins' gorgeous coral pink towels, I am rethinking this whole white towel thing.

So, if I ever get five minutes, I am going to find coral pink towels for my new house and have them monogrammed in white. Why do I have a feeling this is going to be hard to find?

For years, I bought the Ralph Lauren towels at Horchow when they had them on sale and with free monogramming. The towels were a great price and excellent quality. But I think the quality has really gone downhill on the RL towels.

BTW, I absolutely loved reading all of your comments yesterday about using your china, silver, and cloth napkins, and especially all your wonderful china patterns.

If anyone has ideas about sourcing these towels, I would be grateful.

Below another beautiful towel example where she has used coral pink on white.

And exciting news for me - my painters surprised me yesterday by completely finishing my closet out of sequence so I can start bring my clothes over today. I can't wait.
