Make Your Bed!

I was recently asked to "make my bed" using Serena & Lily's new Make Your Bed tool.  It was so much fun mixing and matching all the great patterns and styles of bedding.  I was inspired to try to find a way to mix other patterns with my Tilbury Lapis headboard fabric and I love the way it turned out.  I was also able to finish the room with Serena and Lily furniture, accessories, and paint. 

Even more exciting are the other nine "Style Gurus" that also made their bed like Molly Sims, Michelle Adams of Lonny, and blogger Victoria Smith.  Victoria's blog sfgirlbybay was one of the first that I read in 2007 and she was also the first blogger I saw who was able to leave their day job because of their blog.  I feel especially honored to be included with her.  Thanks Serena & Lily!

Sponsor Giveaway: Vero Linens

I love changing out my linens each season and especially in the summer.  There is nothing better than crawling into a freshly made bed of cool Italian sheets on a hot summer day.  As we head into the summer rental season, it's also the perfect time to pick up new bedding to take to your home away from home.  You certainly don't want to sleep on whatever the owner has left you! 

That's where Vero Linens come in. Vero has a relationship with a fourth generation family owned Northern Italian manufacturer with over 150 years of tradition that produces gorgeous luxury linens, which allows them to sell directly to customers. You're getting the same quality and softness of bed linens priced at thousands of dollars more.  I was sent a set for my own bed and can attest that they look and feel great!

Vero has graciously offered to also share a set with a lucky Habitually Chic reader.  Just go to their website and choose which set you would like to try for yourself.  One set of sheets – (fitted, flat & pair of pillowcases) in either the solid Diamante or stripe Righetta in the color of your choice - ivory, sable, or white. Leave a comment with your name and mention the set and color to enter.  One entry per person.  If there is no name attached, I will not post your comment and you will not be entered. I'll be choosing the lucky winner next week.  In bocca al lupo!

UPDATE: This giveaway is now closed and a winner has been chosen.  Good luck next time!
