Hello! Here are some beautiful new looks from the Charlotte Taylor Autumn/Winter 2012 collection, Jamaica Inn. As always (see my SS12 post), she really has an incredible way with color and print–deliriously cool. The collection is inspired by coastal walks, Daphne du Maurier, smugglers and the magnificence of Cornwall. OWL! I hope your weekend was nice.

I love this pretty gold gilded tea set and the amazing 6′ oil on canvas painting of iris flowers. They’re both from beautiful Go Seek–I always love the styling in this vintage shop. As I mentioned before, these guys are based in High Falls, NY, where I spent a lot of time when I was growing up. My great-grandmother (Honey Kennedy’s mom) owned a sweet upstate country house there–full of antiques. Soft spot! Images courtesy... Read More
