Williams Sonoma Home is having a great offer right now on their Chambers Heritage Italian-made Hotel Collection sheets - 30% off!  They offer White Hotel Bedding and Ivory Hotel Bedding. White has six different options for the double line embroidery: tone on tone, sand, blue, chocolate, black and brick. For ivory there are four options: tone on tone, olive, sand and chocolate.  The fabric is 300 thread count Egyptian cotton percale.  This is such a classic look, you can never go wrong with it.


And, if you're a monogram loving person, you can add your monogram!  The items are sold open stock.  A queen sheet set adds up to $275.80.  A queen duvet cover with two standard shams adds up to $387.80.  (monogram and plain are actually the same price, and they're offering free shipping too!)

When I see certain bedding, it makes me think:  oh! I so want that for my country house, or beach house... except that I don't have a country house or a beach house!  I absolutely LOVE bedding and interior design in all different styles, but when you only have one place to live, it limits your options.... you don't want to have a big muddled mess of all different styles after all!

When I saw these cute Tommy Hilfiger Lobster sheets, I really loved them and would like them for my (imaginary) beach house!  I'd cover them with a white coverlet to keep things simple and to tone done the bit of silliness of having lobster sheets (when you're an adult).

They come in sizes twin - queen. You can get them at Bon Ton. A queen set is $64.99. They are 200 thread count. The stripe is a print, not a yarn dye.  Okay, so even if you don't have your own beach house, these would be fun sheets to bring out to a Hamptons or NJ Shore share house!
