Third Coast Classic

A classicist and Chicagoan since birth, Margaret collects images, words, and moments where she can find them. She loves anything labeled classic, traditional, or preppy and was probably born in the wrong era (i.e., one without hats). If it involves Chicago, the most wonderful hometown, you can bet she's there. Cheers to travel, interior design, glittering jewels and an aspirational life!

Maybe Aerin Lauder needs an assistant.  Or someone to dust her china collection.  I could do either of those things if I got to spend time in a room like this.

I don’t even know how many houses Aerin Lauder has but they are all fabulous. This is a less-seen view of one of her gorgeous sitting rooms in her house in East Hampton and every last thing is literally perfection. Tufted blue velvet sofa, upholstered mismatched armchairs and side chairs, blue and whit ginger jars and lamps, light lavnder walls, sisal rug, billowy drapes, fluffy happy green plants, a to-dieee-for skirted table with fringe trim(!!!!) and does that coffee table have little cut-outs for blue and white plates?? WTF.
