Stay in touch
Email has had a huge impact on the gentle art of letter writing – and it will keep on doing so, if we let it. We’re not too worried though, when there’s still such beautiful paper, cards and accoutrements to be had. The Tiffany dragonfly correspondence cards, $39.95 and Greek Palmette card case, $105, are both from the Metropolitan Museum of Art Store. All other items are the stylist’s own.

La vie en rose
In the cause of romance, candlelight is right there, and we love the dash of whimsy that comes with these Entanglements garden stakes. They come in two sizes, small $34, and large $45 and look as good on a balcony as in a cottage garden that’s a riot of colour.
