Trick Or Treats For Kids Of All Ages

{ Via: One King's Lane}

What I love about Halloween most, is that you can put it all together at the last minute, if you dare. Many of us can't be with our children, grandchildren, those college kids away from home, and other loved ones for this fun holiday. Yet, we still want to send a trick or treat. There's still time, but the witching hour is upon us. So I have scared up some spooky and sweet inspiration for your trick and treating this year. In some cases, you'll have to use expedited shipping, but these fab finds can't get there by broomstick!

Tuesday Trend: Velvet Vibes

For a long time, velvet has been saved for proper little girls and their holiday dresses. Not so this season. It's velvet from head to toe and in every color of the rainbow. This Fall one can be fancy or casual in velvet. It's a luxe and lovely fabric that plays well with every other trend. Here are some of my favorite finds.

Oh how lovely! Pretty in pink velvet.  The Jacket and pants are sold individually at
Need Supply 

Alice & Olivia
What a gorgeous outfit!  It combines two of the seasons biggest trends - feathers and velvet. Find the Velvet Vest HERE and the fabulous Feather Dress HERE

The Comforts Of Home

Lately, I have become a homebody. Broken limbs have a way of doing that to you. The truth is, I never mind being home. My home is where my heart is. How about you? I enjoy the art of taking pleasure in ordinary everyday moments. Of course we can do that in our minds, but having some comforting material possessions, makes life at home even more joyful. So today let's get lost in the throws of comfort. And do click on the photo above for the sweetest hostess gift ever. Let's get cozy!

HERE: A Collection of 16 Chic & Cozy Finds

Sophia Cashmere Ruffled Throw

Aren't these just the prettiest? They also are quite expensive, but can you really put a price on joy and comfort?
Horchow

Arquiste Parfumeur Velvet 

The name of this minimalist candle really says it all, but Barney's gives a good description, too. "brings the splendor of The Architect’s Club, inspired by the original Mayfair location to life, capturing the feel of the Art Deco movement in 1930. The scent of gin martinis mingle with fine vanilla and blond tobacco smoke, evoking the elegant imprint of the cozy wood-paneled interior of The Fumoir bar at Claridge’s Hotel in London." We can pretend to be there without leaving home. 

Barney's New York

Tea Forte Teas

I discovered this brand of tea several years back at The Ritz Carlton San Francisco. The Club lounge served it. I became addicted to these little tea triangles. The ritual of tea is super comforting to me. They make great gifts for a host, hostess or me! :)

Amazon

Barefoot Dreams Chic Calypso Wrap
Boy do I need this! It feels like the iconic Barefoot Dreams Robe, but you could wear this almost anywhere. I personally, would blog better while being cozy in this wonderful wrap.

A close up of this perfect pile proves that these are Serena & Lily's softest towels yet. Made from Turkish Aegean cotton, these towels dry faster and have excellent absorbency. A dreamy soft towel is certainly one of my comforts at home. How about you? They come in an assortment of chic colors.
Serena & Lily

LaCrosse Down & Primaloft Deluxe Comforter
Without a comfortable bed, there is little comfort at home. I have had my Company Store comforter (medium weight) for more years that I want to admit. It's the perfect loft, and has never been too heavy. I feel like Goldilocks - it is always just right for me. They are now on sale in a color for every decor. Plus take an extra 25% off sitewide. See website for details.

Nest Fragrances Sugar Cookie
Nest's newest scent, just in time for crisp Fall evenings.  Experience warm flavors of Tahitian vanilla bean and bourbon-infuse caramel with delicate threads of sugarcane crystals and the rich essence of golden amber. Just one look and I am already comforted (and hungry). Aren't you?
Neiman Marcus 

Ruby & Ed Velvet Slip On Shoes
I think there are two kinds of indoor people. Those that wear shoes at home, and those that don't. Even though my feet are always cold, I am one of those "no shoes" girls. But now that I have found this darling brand, I may be a convert.  Look at the many other sweet styles by clicking the following link.
Amara

Jonathan Adler Mongolian Bench

I sure could use this bench now. It is the perfect size to rest my broken leg on comfortably. It's also a lovely addition in the dressing room, the bathroom, or at the end of the bed. Love!

Yes, I have a thing for all things furry, faux or not. This one from Old Hickory Tannery is the real thing. Now light my fire!
