Roses and boxed chocolates have long been the hallmarks of Valentine’s Day, but this year let’s shake it up a little! There are plenty of blooms beyond roses that signify romance. Guys, you will actually get credit for getting creative (and you can leave it to the professionals, you just have to know what to […]
6 Valentine’s Day Guy Gift Picks from Sault New England
While it’s very nice to “get” on Valentine’s Day, it’s just as fun to give. Guys can be difficult to shop for so I enlisted the help of Philip Saul, owner of Sault New England in Boston’s South End. He has curated his top 6 picks from the store that any guy would be lucky […]
Guest Post: Eleni’s Cookies in NYC
I’m always on the hunt for small and unique shops to share here on P&C. So far I’ve only showcased stores here in Boston, and am thrilled to be highlighting a New York shop in today’s post thanks to guest blogger Silvana Costa. As the founder of Wicked Peacock, Silvana is a total tastemaker with a […]
The Nautical Home
It happens every year. Several months into winter I start seriously longing for the summer sun and salt water. I’m letting my mind wander to warmer days by compiling a board of nautical home accessories. Living in New England, it’s fun to celebrate seaside living and bringing the coastal vibe inside.

I’ve always loved the unique look of antlers and mounted busts as wall decor. An instant statement-maker, they’re aesthetically striking, but I can never convince myself to make the leap. Even though I’m drawn to them, I always bypass the antler skull caps at Brimfield. There’s something unsettling about having a dead animal mounted in […]

Flynn offers a beautifully curated selection of accessories as well as custom designed pieces, presented in a unique space. I’m always so interested in seeing the […]
Thrifty Chic: Interior Style on a Shoestring
My boyfriend and I exchanged gifts earlier this week since he is traveling home to see his family this holiday. He got me several books that I’m so excited to flip through over the break, one being “Thrifty Chic: Interior Style on a Shoestring” (how well does he know my taste!?) The Intro of the […]
