Spring in the City!

Post sponsored by Saks

Hi friends! We just spent the week in NYC for spring break (so fun!), and now I’m fantasizing about my Carrie Bradshaw moment living in Greenwich Village! And of course this fantasy comes with a dreamy spring wardrobe refresh from Saks.com – our one-stop-shop for the newest dresses, denim, tops, shoes and accessories! We’ve pulled together the perfect mix and match capsule collection for spring in the city, or really anywhere your heart desires. We love this versatile palette of black, white and natural tones, with a variety of interesting textures and pretty details. And in case you missed the news: the Saks Friends & Family Sale just got extended through this evening, so it’s the perfect time to snap up your latest favorites with 25% off of so many new styles! The sale picks in our cart include this lace skirt, this vest top and this classic trench, and we’re also eyeing this shorter trench style that will be a perfect light layer for spring. Happy shopping!

Framing Made Easy!

We’re forever adding to our art collection, including favorites by talented artist friends, unique vintage finds and special pieces collected during our travels. The opening of the new Framebridge store in the Edgehill neighborhood of Nashville has inspired us to pick the perfect custom frames for many treasured pieces…the process is super easy (and fun!) and the quality is really beautiful at such a reasonable price. Leave it to a female-founded brand to really nail it on aesthetics, ease and value!

At the Framebridge store you can see samples of the different frame materials, framing styles and mats - there are so many options to choose from, and it’s super satisfying to mix and match everything in person to find the perfect combinations to pair with your art. And by “art” we mean almost anything (scarves, textiles, mementos)…they have so many styles of framing available to accommodate whatever you have in mind. We especially love that they create a digital mockup with your artwork so you can preview what your finished framed piece will look like. You can then choose whether to pick up your completed pieces in person at the store, or they can also ship directly to you.

There are now so many Framebridge stores located throughout the United States – you can find your closest store here!

We’re also big fans of Framebridge’s online shopping experience (and shipping is always free when you spend $100+!). You can check out all of their latest frames and mats online here…we’re loving this new cork style and these striped mats and can’t wait to get a few more pieces framed soon to add to our design projects at the house and the P+P atelier!
