Whenever I need a new rug for a room, FLOR is one of the first places I look — and with good reason. I can always trust that their products are eco-friendly in a variety of ways, and that there will always be new designs for me to peruse. This summer is no exception. I am loving the bold, graphic new designs from FLOR’s summer collection.
Lasting Grateness

My personal favorite is the beautiful Lasting Grateness. It is the kind of rug that can either make a room, or work well with the statement pieces you already own. The black and white color palette leaves endless room for bold accent colors, and it’s really hard to “mess up” black and white. :: READ THE FULL POST
A longtime fan of FLOR, I am always excited when they debut new designs. Their Spring 2011 products do not disappoint.
Haute Stuff

This is my favorite of the new designs. Each carpet square combines two very different textures, and each set contains two FLOR squares. One square features an area of soft shag in the center, which is bordered by a frame of smooth felt. The other carpet square is the reverse, with felt in the center, framed by shag. The result is a beautiful, textured effect that must be heavenly under your feet. And even better, it is available in 8 different color combinations. :: READ THE FULL POST

My daughter is a big fan of dressing up. Some days, it’s the cheerleading costume we gave her a few years back, and other days, it’s my high-heeled boots, jewelry and “makeup.” I put makeup in quotation marks because I don’t wear any. Really. But I do like lip glosses and balms (particularly when they’re natural and/or organic), and she’s picked up that habit from me. So when I discovered Dillygiggles natural lip balms designed specifically for little girls, I couldn’t wait to get it for her. :: READ THE FULL POST

I’ve been looking for a new pair of boots for a long time. And I mean a looong time. See, I had this problem a few years back. I bought cute boots with stiletto heels knowing full well that they are uncomfortable as heck. So this year, I decided that was going to give away all the heeled boots (and sandals, etc.) that I never wear and instead buy some flat boots — that were still cute. Thankfully for me, riding boots are in style this year. And when I discovered the Timberland Earthkeepers line of boots, I knew I had to have a pair. :: READ THE FULL POST

I’m one of those people who feels naked without a watch. My iPhone is a pretty good stand-in, but nothing beats having a watch on your wrist for quick time checks. Of course, at with anything else I buy these days, I have to know of what and how my watch is made. With Sprout eco-friendly watches, I can rest assured they were made with sustainability in mind.
