Who: Naya – New York, NY

What: Ana Peep-Toe Shootie

Where: Amazon.com – $145 in inky blue or in tan at Piperlime

Why We Love It: Yes, we’ll admit we were at first skeptical about peep-toe booties, wondering when they’d be appropriate, but now we wonder how anyone could live without a pair of blue (or tan) suede ‘shooties’… Turns out they are incredibly versatile. Pair with jeans, leggings, trousers and go with or without stockings in just about any season (rain and snow are admittedly tough). The soft pleats of the 100% chrome free suede lend a sophisticated edge. Click to continue »

What: Linen ‘T’ Towel

Where: Etsy – $21

Why We Love ‘Em: We are complete suckers for typography and have an inexplicable penchant for tea towels, so it was no wonder that this sweet tongue-in-cheek ‘t’ towel caught our eye.  With its collection of hand drawn rendering of ‘t’s in font types Garamond, Hoefler, Kevlar, Mrs Eaves and Caslon… Love this for a kitchen paired with the red ‘t’ towel.

We also loving having fun tea towels like this handy for last minute housewarming gifts or thank yous – simply laying the towel in a basket and filling with homemade goodies for a sweet treat. Click to continue »
