MATERIAL PURSUITS

This weekend's curated luxury trends

TUCK IT

The houseguests are coming, and they’re hoping for luxe linens. Pop into Yves Delorme for a sumptuous refresh to any suite. The Fugues Collection is a whimsical favorite, printed with a design celebrating herbs and the link between humans and nature. Renditions of chamomile, angelica, and thyme weave their way over the long staple combed organic cotton batiste comforter. Coordinate it with neutral sheets and top with (not too many) throw pillows for a welcoming haven they’ll appreciate. usa.yvesdelorme.com.

GIFT IT

To truly dazzle your Thanksgiving hosts, arrive with See’s Candies Signature Gift Pack. Four pounds of decadent chocolate, buttery toffee, and brittle, plus lolly pops will garner a great deal of good will. The classic brand is comforting in its familiarity. From the checkerboard floors to the uniformed shop assistants who always offer a sample, See’s is delicious nostalgia. For cocktail parties or an open house, a smaller box is absolutely appropriate, but for turkey dinner or overnights, go big. sees.com

READ IT

In her new book, The New Classic Home, beloved designer Paloma Contreras answers the most perplexing home design question: how does one design a space that successfully mixes traditional and modern elements? After all, the perfect home is harmonious and getting the balance correct can be challenging. Contreras walks readers through her four main techniques—color, texture and pattern, scale and proportion, and tension. With these in check, Paloma creates harmonious, balanced interiors even when the individual pieces are from different eras and styles. A forward by India Hicks makes this a must-add for any design library and an excellent gift for stylish friends. Available at Barnes & Noble and other bookstores.
