Join Me At Joss & Main Tomorrow!

 
Have you seen the great new Curator’s Collection series over at Joss & Main
 
It launched last week with Erin of Elements of Style, and tomorrow my sale goes live! 
 
This is just a little sneak peak, as I’m beyond excited to be partnering with this fabulous flash sale site. 
 
Inspired by an eclectic mix of interiors that showcase traditional design with a twist, I’ve had the best time putting together a fun and fresh selection of home decor items that you can score at deeply discounted prices.
 
Check back tomorrow at Joss & Main, and if you haven’t already signed up yet, you can do it now, here!

The Ocean House Hotel in Watch Hill, Rhode Island

 

In the middle of last week, in the middle of the summer, in the middle of a heat wave, Mr. Zhush, (as he’s fond of saying) called an audible. 

With the forecast showing triple digits for the tri-state area, plans to head into New York City for a mini-vacation were eschewed in favor of scoring the last room at the newly renovated (and new to us) Ocean House Hotel in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. 

A short two hours later and we were in breezy, beachy heaven. 

The guest rooms were lovely and impeccably clean, the world class service, quietly attentive and the beach, divine. 

Heading out to explore the small surrounding village proved just as satisfying…

Ditto the excellent cocktails and fresh oysters on the veranda. 

Watch out Watch Hill…we’ll be back for sure!

Update: Several years later, as of 2020 we now own a beach house in a nearby coastal Rhode Island town!

The fine dining, the beachfront location and the uncompromising service had us wondering why we had never been here before, several times!
