Serena + Lily Friends and Family Event.

By: Jen Shoop

I’ve written somewhat extensively about my love affair with my bed. It’s one of only a handful of spaces I truly consider my own in our petite Manhattan apartment, and I take disproportionate pride in its making, straightening, and fluffing every single day–and the ironing of its linens every week. As I wrote last weekend, my ministrations in service to my bed reflect my sense that if I can’t do the small things right, the big things are all out of wack. And so when Serena & Lily offered to send me some of their beautiful pillows, I knew immediately that I’d love the opportunity to dress up my bed with something new and ultra-luxe. I have always loved Serena & Lily, whose ethos that “living well begins at home” resonates deeply with my own outlook on the relationship between a well-designed, well-kept home and a tidy, well-lived life. I chose these Leighton pillow covers in the smoke, both in the 24″ square and the 14×30″ bolster, these pillow inserts, and this alpaca throw, and am ecstatic with the results on top of my upholstered bedframe (which I bought several years ago from Serena & Lily, and which has held up beautifully). Doesn’t it look delicious?!

PSA: S&L is currently running one of their rare 20%-off-everything Friends and Family Sales with code GUESTPREP, now through October 14th, and it couldn’t come at a better time for us as we prepare to move uptown in two short days and have a need to invest in some new furniture. Below, the items I am eyeing seriously:

DIP-DYED STOOLS FOR MICRO’S NURSERY (WE’LL BE SHORT ON SPACE IN HIS TINY ROOM, SO THIS WILL BE A WELCOME ACCENT TABLE / STOOL TO PERCH ON)

LA JOLLA BASKETS FOR TOYS AND LAUNDRY

BLAKE DRESSER (PLEASE, MR. MAGPIE, CAN WE FINALLY GET RID OF YOUR OLD CEDAR DRESSER?!)

MICRO’S ROOM HAS A BATHROOM WITH — CURIOUSLY — NO MIRROR INSTALLED ABOVE THE SINK, AND I’M EYEING THIS ONE

THIS SLEEK TABLE LAMP

THESE GINGHAM CRIB SHEETS

A RUNNER LIKE THIS OR THIS THAT WON’T SHOW TOO MUCH DIRT IN THE LONG ENTRYWAY IN OUR NEW APARTMENT

DAYDREAMING ABOUT ADDING THIS CHAISE TO OUR MASTER BR FOR READING/BREASTFEEDING MICRO/WATCHING TV

THIS FUN TOILE TRAY FOR OUR LARGELY BLUE LIVING ROOM

ONE OF THESE LONG BENCHES FOR THE FOOT OF OUR BED

  1. Your bed is GORGEOUS! Wow. So beautiful.

    I’ve never purchased anything from Serena & Lily but they just opened their first Boston-area store … going to have to pay a visit and investigate their wares in person! xx
