Field Notes / Vol. 17

Delftware fashion, cool new exhibitions, pet portraits, and more!

Early Access to the Anthro Sale

I’m exhausted by the sales already, but this one is worth sharing. Use code KATIEA30 for 30% off at Anthropologie (they’ve given us early access!) and if you spend $200, you’ll be emailed a $50 off coupon for holiday shopping (12/11 - 12/25). I just stocked up on these these Portuguese bowls and matching mugs and these napkins for Christmas. I’ve saved all my favorites for here, if you’d like to see. Thanks to Anthropologie for sponsoring this mention and supporting A Tisket A Tasket!

Delft Tile Pajamas

Now your pajamas can match your kitchen backsplash. This Delft tile-inspired set is made of soft organic cotton and would make the perfect gift for interior design fans.

Café de Flore Silk Scarf

Marin Montagut’s limited edition scarf inspired by the iconic Parisian café instantly made me smile. Crafted in a family-run factory in Lyon, it’s the perfect souvenir for the Francophile in your life.

The Marlowe Mules (on sale!)

You can bet I immediately added these puppies to cart. Get early access to the Margaux sale (20% off sitewide!) with code SHOPEARLY. If you’re unfamiliar with the brand, the soles of all Margaux shoes have a plush foam padding that makes them as comfy as they are chic.

Melissa Gamwell Calligraphy

Have you ever seen a dreamier place card? Talk about dinner party goals. I came across New York-based calligrapher Melissa Gamwell on instagram and immediately saved her work to my wish list.

Snow Boot Christmas Stocking

This quirky Christmas stocking is crafted from handwoven Duponi silk and embroidered by hand. Designed by Zurich-based En Soie, they offer a clever ice skate stocking, too. I’m always in awe of the brand’s art direction (the snowball! the tree! the bell! the dachshunds!).

Lee Miller at Tate Britain

If you find yourself in London this holiday season consider catching the Lee Miller retrospective at the Tate Britain (open until February 15, 2026). As an admirer of her work and story, I’m sad to miss it (though I’m hopeful I’ll catch it at Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris next spring!). In the meantime, I’ll be poring over the accompanying book.

Ruffled Dressing Robe

This romantic bathrobe looks like something one of the March sisters would wear (if you got that reference, let’s be friends).

Wes Anderson Exhibition

I can’t wait to nerd out at the London Design Museum’s new Wes Anderson exhibition. The curators delved into Wes Anderson’s extensive archive and unearthed so many goodies—the Moonrise Kingdom costumes above! We won’t be across the pond again until spring, but thankfully the show is open through July 26, 2026.

Pet Portraits by Florence Evans

I stumbled across these paintings on instagram (I follow Florence’s travels in India!) and find them so clever. The perfect way to celebrate your beloved four-legged friend.

Honorable Mentions:

• This darling coat is finally back in stock!

• Do you think they’d bring good luck?

• I got to meet the brilliant Beata Human at de Gournay last week and had such a fan girl moment. Her book is one of my all-time favorites and I simply adore everything she designs—this new moustache hook!

• These Italian aprons are very fun. I found a similar version here.

• The Rothy’s sale started today and if you own a pair of their iconic clogs, you know they live up to the hype. Size down (I’m usually a 9.5 and the 9 is great). This mention isn’t sponsored, I’m just obsessed.

• Christmas pants if I ever saw them.

• My husband and son delighted over the bizarre Kit Kat flavors in Japan so I ordered these for their Christmas stockings.

• This stationery would make for a fun gift.

• A very on brand ornament.

Thanks for being here, friends.
