Whenever I see a clear umbrella I immediately think of Scarlett Johansson in Sofia Coppola’s brilliant Lost in Translation. Needless to say, I’m head over heels for the contemporary version at top which is only $20 at Pieces in Atlanta. I love it’s generous dome shape—rainy day chic!
This week I really want to move to Atlanta. Last week it was D.C. and the week before that it was back to Manhattan, but today I’ve returned to my southern belle fantasies. One place I’ve always longed to visit in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood is the charming shop Pieces. Their fun mix of antique, vintage and contemporary furniture and home accessories won me over long ago though I’ve yet to visit in person. The owner, Lee Kleinhelter, clearly has an incredible eye for design and her fantastic use of color continually blows me away. Above, a few current favorites from the Pieces inventory. I’m fairly certain I need that French birdcage… I hope we move to Georgia come June!
