Field Notes / Vol. 18
Jigsaw puzzles, silk pajamas, pewter wine stoppers, and other life essentials.
Nature’s Symphony Jigsaw Puzzle
I’m huge jigsaw puzzle nerd and was so bummed when I discovered this stunning Jamie Beck puzzle was sold out. Thankfully, I found it in stock online at my friend Cassandra’s gorgeous Seattle boutique and it arrived in no time. I’m keeping mine for yours truly, but it is so beautifully packaged I can’t help but think it would make for a fab hostess gift.
Roma Accent Chair by Heidi Caillier
San Francisco-based interior designer Heidi Caillier (if you don’t own her book, you’re missing out) recently unveiled a collaboration with Lulu & Georgia and it’s brimming with delicious pieces for the home. This chair with its rattan frame and floral-print cushions (the little ties!) is a highlight. There’s something about Heidi’s nostalgic, unpretentious vibe that I just adore. Explore the entire collection here.
Iana Collarless Handmade Coat
I recently made my first Rue Sophie purchase (the coat above!) and am beyond impressed with the quality and cut. It’s a blend of wool, alpaca, and silk and feels truly sumptuous (like could pass for Max Mara, but a fraction of the price). I purchased mine here (I opted for the medium and it can fit a thick sweater underneath), but it’s available on the brand’s website too. I just saw they offer it in black as well! Dear, oh dear.
Embroidered Raffia Picture Frame
I love how handbag designer Pamela Munson is expanding into home decor. This picture frame is inspired by a vintage tapestry she collected—is there anything sweeter than a petite floral motif? The newest launch also includes a dreamy embroidered tray perfect for gathering your favorite fragrances or cocktail glasses.
Pewter Cherub Wine Stopper
Looking for an unusual Valentine’s gift? This charming cherub wine stopper from from Scandinavian icon Svenskt Tenn always makes me smile (those cheeks!). Crafted of pewter and cork, it was designed by Swedish sculptor Marie-Louise Idestam-Blomberg all the way back in 1927. Here’s to giving more gifts that are unexpected, functional, and chic.
Discovery Stripe Silk Pajamas
You know I love a good stripe and this one designed by sleepwear brand Petite Plum for Viceroy Hotels immediately landed on my wish list. Made of mulberry silk they’re machine-washable, temperature-regulating, and hypoallergenic (my sensitive skin is so here for it). Did I mention they also made a coordinating eye mask? Hard to beat!
Girotondo Glassware
Looking to up your glassware game? Look no further than these new floral tumblers from Brooklyn-based Porto. Each glass is handblown in Murano, Venice making it one-of a kind. I’ll always have a weakness for the subtle variations of a handcrafted piece.
Artist Lucy Innes Williams
I adore art that has a strong sense tactility to it, and this lovely floral arrangement by English artist Lucy Innes Williams is certainly a showstopper. The Central Saint Martins grad uses gouache and pencil on laser-cut poplar to create her original works. Isn’t it beautifully presented in the hand-painted green frame?
Ruffled Bedskirt
I’ve been waiting for an American retailer to make ruffled bedskirts again! How sweet is this floral print? Time to relive my Laura Ashley-loving childhood.
More worth noting:
A beautiful set of pastels. Here’s to do more arts & crafts in 2026.
Obsessed with the latest additions to the Liberty x Adidas collab.
Surely I could find use for this garden tote.
Love the ribbon detail.
These fun clogs have me wanting to DIY bedazzle my own Birks. Saving for inspo!
Coveting this cashmere wrap in teal.
The sweetest embroidered cardigan—wish came in my size!
Happy 2026 friends. Thanks for being here.
I need that Rue Sofie coat and that fabulous puzzle!!
