Picture frame
With the changing seasons, we love to switch up our family photos and frames for an easy and quick revamp. These hand-woven rattan frames ($32 each) from Spruce are the perfect way to freshen up your space and show off the best memories with family and friends.
Marble crock
Sturdy and strikingly handsome, this Italian marble piece can hold utensils, display flowers, or keep a standard wine bottle chilled and secure. Shop this for $64 at Holistic Habitat.
Set of rainbow glasses
Be the hostess with the mostess with this set of rainbow-hued glasses by designer La Double J and world-renowned Venetian glassmaker Salviati. Each handmade glass is cutely ribbed and has a contrasting rim. These are a maximalist’s dream for crafting a head-turning tablescape any time of year. Shop this set at Design Supply for $995. Your guests will agree they’re a worthy spring splurge.
CLOTHES & ACCESSORIES
Blouse
Cut from a floral cotton poplin, this will become your favorite spring top. We love its dramatic sleeves, ruffle-trimmed neckline, and petal tassel ties. Pair this with your favorite pair of jeans — any color will match! Shop this top for $275 at Monkees of Lexington.
Sandals
Chunky slip-on slides are great for walking to the pool (or hot tub), running errands, or spring break explorations. The sturdy crisscrossed straps and bouncy, braided platform make them irresistibly comfortable. And since they’re made with water-based materials, you can feel good about leaving a light eco-footprint. Shop these for $130 at Square-D Clothing.
White pants
This pair of up-cycled denim has all the handcrafted details we look for in new jeans: a trendy straight leg, a high tailored waist, and a chic bone hue. The cutely named “Camp Pants” are ready for anything. Get your pair for $198 at Asher + Rye.
Scarf
Nothing welcomes spring quite like a versatile printed scarf. This floral design by artist Jesi Lee could be styled on the neck with a t-shirt, in your ponytail, or on your purse handle! The mauve is $15 at Mucho.
FOR KIDS
Playmat
From tummy time to toy time, this super-soft playmat will keep your little ones happy and comfy. Made of cozy quilted 100% cotton with playful stitching and colors, you can pick from a few designs like “Rocket Man” (pictured) for $86 at Shower Me With Love.
