Luxe Decor & Entertaining: Champagne Buckets

When Lauren & I vacationed in Paris and the South of France a couple of summers ago, we acquired a love (ok, border line obsession) for champagne buckets.  Whether we were at a cafe or on the beach, it  seemed the French served everything in one.  Of course wine and champagne, but even water and bottled Diet Coke!  So chic!
Upon our return we scoured ebay for vintage silver champagne buckets so we too can live fancy like the French!

We also find they are a great accessories to use around the house.

The Look For Less: Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug

You may have seen different versions of the Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug popping up a lot lately on the pages of Elle Decor and House Beautiful.  This rug isn't a new design...in fact its been around since the 1950s! But it seems to be making a resurgence in a big way! The original rugs can go for at least $2,000-6,000! Currently though, some of our favorite mainstream retailers are redoing the rug for a fraction of the price!

Check out these great alternatives!
