Yes, if it's woven, I love it! What a chic rustic pitcher - stainless steel covered in woven rattan. It's great for outdoor entertaining, picnics, or just a country table setting. Though new, I love the vintage appeal, like it's been passed down for generations.

Love the earthy, tribal feel and resulting pattern of these woven candle holders with glass insert. Perfect for your next outdoor soiree, hang them from a tree or market umbrella to create a cool ambiance. Better yet, remove the handles and sit them atop any table or align them down outdoor steps.

Style Story - Colored glasses
So I've been seeing colored glassware everywhere, but there was a time where I didn't really understand the appeal - colored glasses just seemed a bit too loud. I think that's because you usually see a variety of color options all at once and perhaps it was the rainbow of colors that overwhelmed me. But what I've grown to appreciate and now realize can be quite chic, is selecting just one color, like blue and then it becomes a cohesive look. And if you're really daring, try doing one color in a variety of styles and shapes. You'll have a really interesting and diversified table setting, but tied together by a common color.

Love it! - Tortoise flatware
I've seen a lot of flatware, but never in tortoise shell - how cool. I've always liked the look of eyeglass frames in tortoise, so maybe I'm just partial! For me, great style is presenting the "everyday" in a new and unexpected way and this flatware has "style" written all over it!

Love it! - Fossil leather organizers
These leather organizers are perfect for any guy in your life - boyfriend, husband, Dad or son. Love their preppy look and hi-quality leather with contrasting stitching - which will only get better with age. And the best part is their sale price, such a bargain that I bought a number of them to give as presents and they're just as great in person. Act fast before they sell out! Note: The Fossil labels you see on the first two images are actually on the back of the products, the front of all three are completely clear like the last image.
