Not sure what to get that special someone? Think selfcare with OVME; home décor inspiration from the new coffee table book, Inspired Interiors; and work from home furnishings from Thos. Moser.

BEAUTY

OVME, www.ovme.com, has just made it twice as easy to give the gift of self-care with its newest Washington, DC area location that opened in Merrifield, Virginia in the Mosaic District in September. The first medical aesthetic studio in this region opened in early 2021 in Bethesda, Maryland. Known for its individualized care, OVME’s team starts with a skin analysis that helps identify the best course of treatment for both women and men. From hydrafacials to fillers to products, the studio offers something for everyone who wants to get into a routine of self-care, including memberships with product and service discounts.

BOOKS

The long-awaited coffee table book Inspired Interiors features designers from across the country sharing their latest home projects from kitchens to bathrooms to living spaces and even outdoor rooms. Inspiration abounds from local Washington, DC area designers and architects, including Aidan Design, www.aidandesign.com, Kelley Proxmire, www.kelleyproxmire.com, Lori Graham Design + Home, www.lorigraham.com, and Rill Architects, www. rillarchitects.com. Inspired Interiors is available for $57.94 on Amazon.
