Life & Style SHOP

By Elyse Major

MARKET BASKETS I love the French baskets we have in the shop and own most of them myself. They are all handmade so each one is a one of a kind. They are also a staple in any European home. They’re not just to take to the farmers market, but you definitely could. The Marseille bag is my everyday bag. You could also use them at the beach, as an overnight bag, or even a gym bag. I’ve even given them as a housewarming gift filled with goodies. To clean them, simply hose them down and air dry. They are versatile, stylish and long lasting.

PILLOW COVERS Changing out your pillow covers adds a fresh new look to any room. In my own home, I have a spring/summer set with lighter and brighter colors and a fall/winter set with cozy fabrics like velvet and knits.

Filled with picked vintage items in the signature colorway of its name, Blanc + Bleu also carries various lines sourced from across the sea, US, and closer to home. “I don’t buy in deep quantities, so if you see something you like, grab it because it might not be here on your next visit and I might not be able to get it again.”
