If you'd like to sleep in a big cloud, here's the perfect quilt from Pottery Barn: Cloud Quilt ($249 for full/queen). The quilt is ruched cotton sateen and backed with silk habotai. The fill is polyester fiber batting.
The matching shams come in standard and euro for $49 and $59 each.
Here's an interesting find...
Hollandia Executive Bed, an adjustable bed with built-in storage and pop-up Sony tv.
Hollandia only has 4 locations in the US: King of Prussia and Philadelphia, PA; Short Hills, NJ; and West Palm Beach, FL.
I love owls! So it was a nice surprise to see that Garnet Hill is doing owl print sheets, Night Owl Sateen, open stock prices from $32 to $98.
They're done in 330 thread count, 100% cotton. It's nice that they're not flannel... it seems that most companies do their novelty prints in flannel. I'm not a flannel fan because it doesn't wear well, it's so soft at first but it gets bunched up and pilled pretty quickly.
This is such a cute design, I wish that they had left off the hats etc. which makes these sheets more of a seasonal item, and not for year-round use. I mean, really, you can't have your owls wearing hats in the summer!
I always love fun prints like this but I would never put them on my own bed, I like to keep that pretty classic looking... but I think these are great for a guest bed or kid's bedroom.
The Giving Tree has several styles of Yves Delorme on sale right now, including Byzance, a large scaled byzantine damask pattern. The full/queen duvet cover is normally $725, now on sale for $435! (40% off)
Towels are just 20% off. The Etoile, cotton/modal blend, and the Olympe (cotton) are both included. I like Delorme's towels because they are not as huge as most brands. The bath towel is just 24 x 49 inches, whereas the standard bath towel is 27 x 54". I actually like the smaller size since I am not a large person. I love the Olympe towels, washed with Downy they come out very nice and soft...
I'm not a big fan of Macy's, I'm more of a Bloomingdale's girl... but taking a look at the offerings from Macy's Hotel Collection, I would say that they are certainly rivaling Bloomingdale's Hudson Park Collection. Frankly I'm surprised, pleasantly surprised that is.
Take a look at these fabulous designs:

Hotel Collection "Rings" Bedding
Hotel Collection "Glacier" Bedding
Nice, right? Sleek, modern, unfussy. Love it.
