The Beauty of Wedgwood: Part II

I went through Wedgwood's website today and picked out my favourites from what they currently have listed. The Queen's Plain is a lovely classic and I love how much history is behind the design. It is called Queen's Ware because Queen Charlotte of England admired it so much that she had a set made for herself and allowed it to be called "Queen's Ware".

The Beauty of Wedgwood: Part I

This flatware design is sooooo pretty. I first saw it in At Home With Wedgwood: The Art of the Table and immediately fell in love. It's Trellis by Vera Wang for Wedgwood and I adore it. It's old world, detailed...each piece is art in it's own right.

The bold print on this bedspread is to die for, I would actually love to see it used as a tablecloth. Pair it with yellow, orange, or even red accents and you've got a tablescape no one will forget!

it's a lovely day for walk, m'dear.

I love that coat! Deliciously fun coats like these are part of what fall is made of. Today as I was driving I admired all the beautiful fall leaves and thought about the many lovely things that come with fall like hot apple cider and scarves and football games. I came home with a big bag of books including The Sartorialist and Inspirations from France and Italy. I'm super excited to delve into these over the weekend!
