Set the Stars Alight

Lucy Clairmont’s family treasured the magic of the past, and her childhood fascination with stories of the high seas led her to become a marine archaeologist.

Eating the Sun

 
A beautifully illustrated exploration of the principles, laws, and wonders that rule our universe, our world, and our daily lives, from the New York Timesbestselling creator of Lost in Translation

From the New York Times bestselling creator of Lost in Translation, Eating the Sun is a delicately existential, beautifully illustrated, and welcoming exploration of the universe—one that examines and marvels at the astonishing principles, laws, and phenomena that we exist alongside, that we sit within.

The Lost Diary of Venice

In the wake of her father’s death, Rose Newlin finds solace in her work as a book restorer. Then, one rainy Connecticut afternoon, a struggling painter appears at her door. William Lomazzo brings with him a sixteenth-century treatise on art, which Rose quickly identifies as a palimpsest: a document written over a hidden diary that had purposely been scraped away. Yet the restoration sparks an unforeseen challenge when William—a married man—and Rose experience an instant, unspoken attraction.

Finds

I love the look of this gray turtleneck sweater, it looks warm and comfortable. 

I bought these boots 4 years ago and they are still my favorite riding boot. They are beautifully made, comfortable and they get better with age. 

Cute fall earrings.

I don’t know about you but I love slippers, I get one or two pairs each year and this year I purchased a pair if these Acorn slippers and a pair of leather slippers from L.L. Bean. I wear then to take out the dogs, around the house to keep my feet warm and I even wear them in the morning to yoga. 

Just in case you need or want a pair of plaid loafers to wear this Fall and Winter. 

It is never too early to think about the holidays, and these plates would be an great addition to your holiday table.
