Code of Correspondence

After a long absence of inspiration (ie Ginger was away) we are reminded of the importance of correspondence and keeping in touch. In this day of digital immediacy it's a rare treat to get a hand written note, even holiday cards come with a beep over our emails and Facebook pages. Jackie O, still a staple for style and manners, used to always start her day with morning correspondences, keeping in touch with friends, family, acquaintances and allies...

We just can't imagine her at Starbucks with an iphone tweeting away. Her subtle, classic charm would be far more likely to land on gorgeous paper with lovely embellishments. Our coastal consultant in LA, Chloe LaFond, says "every fabulista needs proper stationary". She adores Miellee Design Studio's glamorous options (see blogs we're following below).


So practice your cursive, buy some stamps, clear off that gorgeous writing desk and get in the habit of keeping in touch with old school style!
