Happy Valentine’s Day!

Pretty in Pink

February 10th, 2012

There’s something about a peony’s elegant burst of petals that always gets me. Its luscious bloom makes it, in my opinion, perfectly romantic for Valentine’s Day. Inspired from this stunning shot of peonies (which ran in our Spring 2011 issue), I foraged the web for gift ideas in the photo’s palette of pinks, grays, and a touch of olive green—and I found some simple, some sweet, and some swoon-worthy items perfect for giving or receiving this Valentine’s Day.

 

 

ONE: Hyla Dewitt “Winston Sweetheart” Necklace, $150
TWO: Valentino: Valentina Eau de Parfum, $80
THREE: Jonathan Adler Pink Elephant Bank, $78

Eddie Ross in Nashville

Tastemaker Eddie Ross has an impeccable talent for adding style to the home. His ability to sift through flea markets and antique stores for diamond-in-the-rough design makes his method as exciting as it is stylish. What’s more, his background in interior design, culinary arts, and floral design make him a serious force in any lifestyle medium. We’re so excited to sponsor his lecture this Saturday at 10AM at the Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville. He’ll be giving advice on how to breathe new life into antique china and we can’t wait to hear all the tips he has to share. Also, be sure to look for him in our Varieties department in our Summer 2012 issue!
