Exciting companions to your dinnerware or cocktail bar! Intermezzo Blue from Orrefors is a beautiful design by Erika Lagerbielke – really art glass! Each glass has a charming teardrop of blue! Chic and happy for Champagne, Martini’s, Wine and of course, the Double Old Fashioneds are for everything…. bubbly water included!! Cheers!!
The Ralph Lauren Home Bedding Collections are charming… Very many of my Home Clients have enjoyed 100% Cotton Sheets – the 464 Percale for the summer months – for those of us who sleep hot or live in warm climates! The 624 Sateen Collection has been a go-to for the smooth and silky feel – Brides and Grooms included!!

I’ve followed you, through email and YouTube, for a year now. I want to thank you for enhancing my life so much this year. I’ve gone grey, I’ve greatly improved my accessorizing, and I’m exercising more and eating better.
Preppy style and Talbot’s have been a part of my life since I saved money from a high school job to buy a dress at Talbots. I not only wear and decorate with Ralph Lauren, but so do my children and grandchildren.
Thank you so much.
Handsome father! I can see you in his face and your personality in his laugh🥂
We all wish wars would never happen, but reality is, they do. Freedom is never free and our military families pay the price. For all the simple pleasures that we enjoy, we should pay too – pay tribute, honour and appreciated. 🎁
And….. let us not forget on this Memorial Day weekend; the WOMEN, the moms, the aunts, the sisters and grandmothers we honor, remember and celebrate for their/ and their families, sacrifices to protect and keep us safe… Blessings to ALL our heroes; the Men and the Women who have, and do serve. God Bless America, the land that we Love!
