Amazon Prime Day

It’s that time of the year again-the annual Amazon Prime Day sale! This sale can feel overwhelming with different items being on sale at different times and days. I’ve rounded up a few of my favorites by category to help focus your Amazon Prime Day shopping. From home and technology items, to beauty and fashion, there’s something for everyone. Just remember that if you miss out on a sale, there’s a chance that it’ll come around again next year. Deals are subject to change and may sell out so keep checking back for discounts on items you’re interested in. Be sure to check out my Amazon storefront for all my favorite Amazon products that might be featured in the sale.

Home

There are so many great options for the home. The Bissell Little Green Machine is perfect for cleaning rugs and upholstery and is especially great if you have pets in the home. There are great kitchen deals from crockpots to dutch ovens to Nespresso machines. Some of my favorite silk tulip flowers are also featured-you can see them in the photo above.

Beauty

I recently started using Olaplex products for my hair and am loving the results. The Amazon Prime Day sale features their conditioner, bonding smoother, and bonding oil. I’m planning on stocking up so that I’m never without it when we travel. The Revlon styler is great for that blowout look without the salon expense. It’s such an easy way to look pulled together. The Laneige lip sleeping mask is another top pick and I like to have one in my bag, car, on my nightstand…I truly love this product.

Fashion

I don’t need a whole lot of new fashion items but there are a few cute bags I’ve got my eye on. I love the structured shape of the top handle bag-very chic. And you can never go wrong with a good raffia bag. It’s perfect for the beach, farmer’s markets, and running errands. It goes with any outfit! I already own and love the H-strap sandals in raffia but they have so many colorways to choose from.

Technology

It’s the perfect time to shop the Amazon Prime Day sales for technology. There are great deals on Apple AirPods and Beats wireless headphones. the Samsung Frame tv is another great choice if you’re looking to hide or blend your tv as you can feature art on the screen when not in use. My friend used the portable charger at the Taylor Swift concert recently and said it was the perfect size to fit in her purse and keep her phone charged the whole night. Adding it to my cart!

While you’re shopping,  be sure to check out Amazon’s furniture selections. I recently shared my favorite Amazon furniture finds in a blog post. From bar and counter stools to coffee and end tables; there are so many great options at decent price points. I find that the more detail you can put in the search bar on Amazon, the more successful you’ll be. If you aren’t sure what you’re looking for, try going to the Amazon Home section and shopping by category.

If you want even more of my favorites, you can shop directly through my Amazon storefront. I have so many categories on my storefront that you can easily shop directly from. You can also visit my Shop page and select Amazon Favorites where you can see them all in one place. You can also access them directly here.

Monthly Amazon Favorites

 

For this monthly Amazon favorites roundup, I thought it would be fun to focus on a single category. This month I’m focusing on my favorite furniture finds. From dressers to desks to patio sets, there are so many great options to choose from. I find that the more detail you can put in the search bar on Amazon, the more successful you’ll be. If you aren’t sure what you’re looking for, try going to the Amazon Home section and shopping by category. I also love that you can shop by trend if you can’t quite pinpoint what style you’re after. I hope you find some of your Amazon favorites from this post!

For those that love the look of Serena & Lily dining chairs but are looking for a different price point, Amazon has several options for less. The chair set also reminds me of the cafe chairs you see in all of those lovely cafes in Paris. Add a cute round table and bring that Parisian charm to your own home! The bistro set is also perfect for the porch or garden.



Aside from chairs, I am loving the coffee tables and end tables on the site.  From wicker to rattan, there’s a bit of all my favorite details in these items. Both of the coffee tables have unique designs on their end caps that can fit many styles. The rattan detailing on the buffet is lovely. I would use the buffet to create a vignette with a vase of flowers and a piece of art. You could also put two of them together to create a media console! The two-tier end table could be used indoors or on the patio. The cute little ottoman reminds me of the one I have in our bathroom!

For the bedrooms and office spaces, they have great basics from dressers to desks. How fun is the raspberry pink desk! I have the white one in my home and it’s the perfect size for what I need. Plenty of room to spread out with my samples and design boards. The daybed would be perfect for a guest room or separate office space. If your kids have a dedicated playroom space, it could work as a nice area to lounge and hang with friends. I think the nightstand would be a perfect fit for a dorm room.



You can shop more of my favorites at my Amazon storefront or on my Shop page. If you missed my previous roundups, you can find my April post here and May’s roundup here. I also have a post on what to buy with Amazon gift cards.

Beautiful Lamps to Light Up Your Home

image0.jpeg

Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links that I may earn a small commission from, at no additional cost to you. I only recommend products I would or have used myself.

Hello, Friends! One of my favorite ways to enhance my living space is by adding beautiful lamps. Setting the mood in each room in your home can easily be done by finding the right lamps to fit each space and they can really help light up a room in more ways than one! Here are some of my favorite beautiful lamps to add to your home!

Wicker

I love a pretty lamp with a wicker shade. It adds such a natural, down-to-earth essence to a room. This Morris Table Lamp has a bulbous white base and would be a great addition to your living room. Or this tall accent lamp made from bamboo will add an extra charm to your space. The Wilmington Table Lamp not only has a beautiful woven wicker base, but its shade has a pretty isla block print in blue that is sure to add some character to whatever room it’s in.

If you love to add beautiful bouquets of flowers to a room, this Floret Table Lamp has a sculpture of flowers decorating its base and would add such lovely color to a bedroom, office, or living room. Or this Flynn Petite Desk Lamp would be a perfect addition to a workspace or bedside table.


Textured Bases

You can have so much fun using lamps as accents in your home just by finding one with a fun, funky, or chic textured base. The base on this Sedona Table Lamp reminds me of the texture of a seashell and adds a bit of a coastal vibe. This Aerin Beaumont Table Lamp or this Dauphine Table Lamp have metal bases that are perfect to add a taste of class and elegance to a space.


Lamps in Blues

This sweet Brookings Lamp has the prettiest blue shade that is perfect for a console or by your bedside. Or add color to a room by using a lamp that has a lovely basic blue base, like this Suzanne Kasler Table Lamp which has a triple gourd shaped base in a calming french blue color. This one reminds me of ripples in a pool while this ceramic lamp is the best neutral blue. If you’re looking for a pattern, this ceramic lamp would be a stunning feature piece.


Choosing the right lighting might not seem that important at first, but using lamps to accent each room in your home is the perfect way to help create the space of your dreams! You can find more lamps in my Shop page.

Favorite Red White and Blue

Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links that I may earn a small commission from, at no additional cost to you. I only recommend products I would or have used myself.

Favorite blue dress

With June in full swing, the Fourth of July holiday is quickly approaching! I’ve gathered up all of my favorite red white and blue items to get into the spirit. It seems like once the holiday has come and gone, summer is halfway over and I get a little sad. The great thing about these items is that they can be worn and used throughout the summer. There’s no need to keep it hidden away until the holiday. So break out the sparklers and celebrate with your favorite red white and blue!

Reds

There’s something about wearing red that makes me feel like I can take on anything. I love this sleeveless crepe dress for an easy, breezy look. For dressier occassions, this eyelet dress screams take me to Europe! It also comes in blue and white and all three are so beautiful. If you’re feeling nostalgic for the 90s, this square neck mini dress will have you swooning. I love the back of this tank top and it would be so chic with a pair of white jeans or trousers. For beach days and nights, this Omika dress is so bright and vibrant.  If you’re wanting to ease into wearing a bold red, dip your toes into these espadrilles. For pool days, this red and white stripe beach towel makes me think I’m back in Palm Beach. At home, I like to bring in subtle pops of red with items like this striped Perennials pillow cover.


Whites

Nothing makes those reds and blues pop more than a crisp white. This short-sleeve cashmere henley sweater would be perfect for any office environment and this linen shift dress is great if your dress code is more business than casual. I love the pockets and button details! These linen shorts are a great choice for hot days when you still want to feel pulled together. Dress them up with a button-down or dress them down with a cute tank and sandals. Crochet is having its moment this summer and this dress could be a great cover-up option and this crochet tote would be great for the market or a day at the beach. For full classic Americana, you can’t go wrong with this sweater. Perfect for those cool summer evenings. This white pillow cover is a staple in my home. I also have it in the lighter blue color. It’s so easy to mix and match with other pillows.


Favorite blues

Blues

If you love stripes as much as I do, this long-sleeve tee has all three colors with a subtle red while this one has darker reds and blues. It also comes in blue and white stripe. This blue and white blouse is perfect for any occassion and I love the bold stripes of this dress. If you’re in the mood for a bold print, I suggest this blue and white floral dress. I love everything about it! For a more classic silhouette, you can’t go wrong with a navy shirtdress. Simple and chic. If you prefer more subtle blues, this high neck sheath dress is more of a blue-purple color and is another 90s vibe option. This linen slip dress is a beautiful french blue and this Oxford blue shirt dress has the loveliest details at the waist and collar.


I can’t possibly fit all of my red, white, and blue favorites into one blog post-especially all my favorite blues! You can find more of my favorites on my LTK page. From clothing to home design, you can find all of my favorites there. For blue and white home inpiration, you can read about a breakfast nook I designed a few years ago and some of my favorite blue and white wallpaper.

How to Mix and Match Pillows

 

How to Mix and Match Pillows -Margaret of York.jpg

Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links that I may earn a small commission from, at no additional cost to you. I only recommend products I would or have used myself.

Refreshing your throw pillows is an easy way to update a room that’s feeling a little stale. Using different patterns, colors, and textures to update your decor is such a great way to have fun with your space. To help guide your pillow play, I’ll share the three main rules I follow to mix and match pillows in my home.

1) Pick a Color Palette

When choosing your color palette, pick colors that are already present in the space you’re working with. This will help you tie the room together.

Make sure to have one or two primary colors to use as accents (lately, I’ve been choosing lots of greens and blues) as well as one or two secondary colors to use as your base such as white or natural browns, like beige and tan.

2) Mix and Match Patterns, Colors, and Textures

Have fun playing with patterns like florals, stripes, gingham, and dots. Mix your patterned pillows with solid-colored pillows to help them stand out more, or get funky by matching patterns with other patterns.

And don’t hesitate to play with textures, too. Include natural textures like raffia and knit wools or pillows with pom poms, tassels, beads, and fringe for added fun and dimension.

3) Use Different Sizes

You can’t go wrong with including all kinds of different pillow sizes in the mix. Mix and match big throw pillows with smaller ones for a layered, cozy feel. It’s always a good idea to start with your larger pillows first, then work your way down to see what still needs to be added.

Don’t forget that excess pillows are mostly for decoration. So add as many as you think fit the space you’re trying to fill, and make sure to have a place to put the extras when you have company over and need to make some room!

Have fun when creating and playing with your pillows! They’re meant to accent and enhance your space, and there’s no right or wrong way to do that. And, check out my other posts if you are needing to update some of your lighting or add a few mirrors to help enhance your home. You can also find some of my favorites on my Amazon storefront.

My Favorite Beach Essentials

beach essential chairs and umbrellas

Happy unofficial summer! The sunny season is officially here and there’s no better way to spend it than soaking up the sun’s rays on a beautiful beach somewhere. So make sure to prep for that much-needed vacation by gathering all of your beach items. It can be overwhelming to remember everything you need so I’ve rounded up all of my favorite beach essentials.

The first beach essential I get out is the all-important beach chair. I love having so many beautiful options when shopping for the perfect folding beach chair. One of my favorites is this cabana chair bundle. Not only does it come with its own pillow, but you can choose from over 100 different patterned fabrics when designing your chair and pillow pair. Or you can grab this teak beach chair in a classic white or pretty gingham coastal blue. I also love this striped chair that would be perfect for the beach or for using at any outdoor event.

Don’t forget to grab an umbrella for those moments when you need a break from the sun! This is definitely one of my favorite beach essentials. You can pair this tide stripe umbrella or this white umbrella with their matching teak beach chairs. I also love this scalloped umbrella with contrasting piping. Or a striped navy blue or a bold navy blue umbrella would be a good addition to your beach trip.

And you will definitely need a really good beach towel. Pack these blue cabana striped beach towels in your beach bag. These Turkish beach towels come in a variety of different colors and are quick-drying. Last year I used these monogramed Turkish towels on my girls trip to Palm Beach. I’m also partial to this vintage stripe towel and this Riveria scalloped towel. Bring a quilted beach house blanket along so you have a place to comfortably relax on the sand. And for those moments when you need a refreshment or two, use this pinstripe cooler or this insulated wine tote to keep your drinks cold and a reusable snack bag to store your smaller food items.

beach essentials hat and swimsuit

A good beach bag can make or break a successful beach day and is always top of my list of things to pack for my beach must-haves. I love this waterproof tote for its size and how easy it is to wipe clean. This straw tote with striped handles is so cute and I love the colors of this oversized tote. Then I use these clear travel pouches to keep my smaller items all corraled together. They can easily go from your purse to your beach bag. To protect my skin, I use Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen and a face covering like this sunhat. Weezie just debuted their tote that perfectly fits their straw hat and I’m excited to test it out this year.

I’ve received a few new swimwear items to try out this summer. There’s this adorable two-piece skirt swim set and this classic wrap one-piece that I plan on pairing with this beautiful beach sarong. You can find more of my favorite beach essentials over on my Shop page.

I’m so happy it’s finally summer and I can’t wait to enjoy some of my own summer days relaxing on the beach with my family. The last beach must-have I’ll be making sure to bring with me is a good book to enjoy, so don’t forget yours!

Monthly Amazon Finds

We’re back this month with my monthly Amazon finds. It’s so easy to miss great stuff with the online retailer and it can feel overwhelming when you’re shopping. This month I have a few items to prepare us for the season of outdoor entertaining and to stock our bar cart. I’m longing for the days when we spend our time outdoors hosting family and friends. I needed skincare and beauty products so I stocked up on a few favorites as well as new-to-me items. I tried out a new workout tank that was my favorite Amazon find!

Amazon Finds For the Home

I have been looking for new glassware to use when we’re dining outside. These shatter-resistant wine glasses are just what I was looking for. They have multiple color options available but I love these sage green ones. The linen napkins are the perfect pop of color to add to our bar cart for cocktail hour. We were in need of new beach towels and the striped ones are so cute! And how lovely is the rattan entry bench? I could see it in so many places in our summer cottage in Michigan.

Skincare & Beauty Amazon Finds

The Living Libations cleansing oil has been saving my skin lately and I’m having my teens start using it as well. When I need a bit of a glow, I love to use the Ilia serum highlighter. On makeup-free days I’ll use this all over like a tinted moisturizer. You can also use it on top or under your makeup to highlight certain areas. If you haven’t tried the Kur nail concealer yet, it’s a must! It’s quick-drying and adds just a touch of color to that conceals any nail imperfections. I love the pink color and my friend has the milky white version that she is a huge fan of.

Women’s  Style

I love the colorful pink dress for summer I can’t say enough good things about this tank top! It’s a dupe for the popular Lululemon tank and I have bought it in several colors. I sized up to a medium. It pairs perfectly with the high-waisted tennis skirt. I love the pleated hem at the back! For running errands, I’ve been reaching for the woven tote lately and have had my eye on this pink crochet one to switch things up this summer. They would both be great for farmer’s markets, too!

Our Cozy Patio Set With Overstock

Cozy patio set

Winter did a real number on our outdoor spaces. Our side deck was looking tired, so we added a cozy patio set from Overstock that was generously sponsored by the company. The Lowell Teak trio was a perfect fit! This space now combines classic comfort, quality, and style; creating the perfect spot to savor the season. I cannot wait to spend my mornings out here with a cup of coffee before the kids are awake or wind down the day with a glass of wine. It’s a perfect spot for Adam and me to use as it is right off of our bedroom. It’s our own little private nook. We have also got the seal of approval from our pets as it is now their favorite spot to soak up the sun!

Cozy patio set

While our exact set is already sold out, there are plenty of similar options. Overstock has hundreds of deals for your patio and garden if you are looking to refresh your outdoor space with a cozy patio set. I also have my eye on the Lowell Teak Patio Daybed to fit along the opposite end of the deck. The Como Daybed is another great option. I have big ideas of lounging there with a great book! The Lowell Teak Loveseat,  comes in two colorways and is another great option. This Coffee Table is great for to bring that indoor vibe to the outdoors. It’s the perfect size if you are entertaining guests or for your family game night.

Beautiful Mirrors

Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links that I may earn a small commission from, at no additional cost to you. I only recommend products I would or have used myself.

I love adding beautiful mirrors to help enhance a room and there are many reasons why I find them beneficial to use in your decorating! They’re versatile, come in a variety of looks and styles, and they can be a reflection of your home’s interior design. So, let me share my top five reasons why mirrors are the perfect addition to any space.

1) Mirrors make a room look bigger.

Because of the way mirrors reflect light and images, when you hang one on your wall it immediately increases the size of the room. This is an illusion of course, but if you have a space that feels too small, add a mirror and you’ll find that it makes the room feel fuller. The bigger the mirror, the bigger the difference, so don’t be shy when choosing the right-sized mirror to add depth to your space.

2) Mirrors can brighten up a room.

Since mirrors are a reflective surface, adding one, two, or even a few of them will give your space more places to bounce light off of. If you have a room that feels a little dark or dull, strategically place a couple of mirrors so that the natural light from your windows or the light hanging from your ceiling bounces off of them which will automatically brighten it up.

3) Mirrors are a work of art.

If you feel like your space is missing something, it could be that you need the right mirror to tie the room together. With all of the variety you have to choose from, they’re the perfect addition when you need the right centerpiece to place over your mantel or table, or if you just need a mirror or two to use as accents along with your other pictures and paintings. You can’t go wrong when finding a beautiful mirror to add more decoration and help enhance your design.

4) Mirrors make a classic statement. 

A beautiful mirror can be absolutely eye-catching in the right space. They can really elevate your home design and add a professional look to a room. Hang a big, beautiful mirror on your wall to add a touch of class to your living room, entryway, bathroom, and bedroom.

5) Mirrors are multipurpose.

They can do it all! Mirrors are a great option to use for decoration or to help cover up an imperfect wall. They come in all kinds of shapes, sizes, colors, and textures which means you can always find the perfect one to fit your style and decor. And, they keep you looking good, so place one in your bathroom, bedroom, and entryway so you always have a way to check yourself out before heading on with your day!

Mirrors are fun, functional, and oh-so versatile! And they’re a great addition to any space that is needing a little something extra. Check out some of my favorite beautiful mirrors in the gallery below! You can also get design inspiration from my favorite lamps by taking a look at my post, Beautiful Lamps to Light Up Your Home.

MacKenzie-Childs’ Royal Check Collection

MacKenzie Childs Royal Check Collection Outdoor

It’s no secret that I love all things classic, traditional, blue, and white. I’ve been a longtime fan of MacKenzie-Childs’ beautiful designs. Visiting my grandmother’s home, I always admired her collection of pieces from this incredible brand. I always loved how she incorporated these throughout her home. Recently I started collecting pieces from MacKenzie-Childs’ Royal Check Collection.  This collection is full of beautiful colors giving our spaces some much-needed energy! What I love most is that these pieces can be used for both indoor and outdoor entertaining. Many of the pieces I have from the Royal Check collection are enamel; making them family-friendly and perfect for outdoor use, too. They are also dishwasher-safe! You can see the entire collection here.

MacKenzie Childs Royal Check Collection Vase

I’ve always enjoyed collecting beautiful serving pieces that I can both display and use on a daily basis. The Royal Check Tall Vase is the perfect vessel for fresh lilacs or hydrangeas from the yard. I always love to have fresh flowers in our home but find that a good vase is just as important as what goes in it! I’m also really excited to add these Royal Boxwood Topiaries to our tabletop when entertaining or use them as decor around our home. They are both timeless and traditional and the hand-painted pots that hold them are in the classic blue and white check!

The Royal Check plates are enamel and painted in the classic check pattern. These are perfect for outdoor entertaining!

Mother’s Day Gifts

Mother’s Day is the time to celebrate and cherish all the mothers in your life. It’s a special day to recognize all our mothers do for us and show them how much we appreciate them. I’ve rounded up ideas for Mother’s Day gifts if you’re looking for just the right thing to get her. While most moms might say they just want to spend quality time with you, it’s nice on occasion to splurge on the person that has done so much for you!

However you celebrate, I’m wishing all the mothers and mothers-to-be a very special day!

Comfy and Cozy Mother’s Day Gifts

I think I speak for a lot of moms out there when all I want is a bit of quiet time to soak in the tub, put on my favorite pajamas, and do my favorite skincare routine. These gifts are aimed at helping you achieve a bit of self-care and relaxation.

Monogrammed Gifts

These gift ideas are for mothers that are into tennis or pickleball (we’re big fans in our family) and are looking for cute bags to carry their gear around. I’ve also included gifts for the moms that are always entertaining at home or on the go (love the wine cooler!).

Mother’s Day Gifts for the Home and for Fun

I love to get my mom something for her home, whether it be a cute frame or this floral pitcher. This pickleball game set will certainly brighten up our matches and go perfectly with the bag above. The market backpack is perfect for the farmer’s market and harvesting flowers from the garden. It’s so much easier to be hands-free!
