VIVRE + My Favorite Things

I recently had the fun task of coming up with my favorite VIVRE items for their List With a Twist. My favorites are now posted to the VIVRE website. What are some of your warm weather favorite items for entertaining and a change of wardrobe?

Shopping on Saturday

I know that yesterday was to be my last post until next week, but I thought that I would do one more Shopping on Saturday before leaving town. I received an email yesterday from one of my wonderful contacts at VIVRE telling me more about their recent partnership with Decorati. Two of my favorite companies coming together is just too good not to mention.

VIVRE, the uber stylish mail-order magazine and online boutique, has recently announced an exciting affiliation with Decorati, the leading online resource for high-end furnishings. The collaboration aims to provide designers and design enthusiasts with greater access to luxury accessories, textiles, lighting, and furnishings all in one place. Simply divine!
