The March Edit

With just two weeks left until Easter, and all the traditions that follow, I thought I'd share what we've been putting together for our customers who are looking for gift baskets, host gifts, and festive details for gatherings at home...

Whether you're staying home or going to a gathering on Easter Sunday, it feels like a tradition to wear a dress. Not only is it a holiday but also a kick off to spring, so I've rounded up some favorite dresses that give a nod to the occasion. Take the Cristina floral maxi dress out for a spin with the new Aquazurra twist wedge or the Jackie mid heel and the raffia, leather combo baguette bag. For a solid color pop, I really love the new short sleeve Bianca dress in green which is perfect for all body types. Pair with the elegant purist pumps in multi color woven raffia. A versatile dress with the option to wear the sleeves off the shoulders or on, the Volga dress is a perfect day-to-night maxi. And if you're looking for a more casual dress, I'm loving the Godralia dress accessorized with the Panier raffia tote.

Who doesn't love chocolate at Easter?! And we have a great selection to pick from for all kinds of palettes. For the ultimate gift, this egg box filled with artisanal hand painted dark and milk chocolate with assorted ganache fillings are both pretty and decadent. For a botanical chocolate, the Nature Lover bar is made with milk chocolate, hazelnut praline, dates and bee pollen. If truffles are your thing, this beautiful bon bon box has six assorted chocolates topped with edible flowers. For a pampering and fragrant gift, the egg shaped bath bombs smell of fresh lemongrass and calendula. Or if, like us, you're die-hard Trudon candle fans, my current favorite is the 380th anniversary Tuilleries candle -- that's right... 380th -- an homage to the classic rose. And you can't think of Easter without bunnies, so we couldn't resist the bunny statue which makes a great table setting topper or ornament anywhere around the home. And add a festive touch to your kitchen with this cotton flour sack bunny tea towel. 

After the dark hues of a winter tabletop, it's a welcome change to lighten things up. Our Stone Jug misty rose napkins are a pretty Easter-themed pastel shade. Pair with our bestselling cane napkin rings. Make your feast even prettier with this cake stand and dome and French baguette board made from upcycled spalted maple. To cut your cake in style, this vintage serrated knife is a beautiful server to add to your table. Set the mood with a pair of rope twist candles held in these vintage brass candlesticks. For an elevated table, the Stone Jug linen tablecloth is my go-to, and for a textural detail to layer on top, these fringe placemats are a beautiful touch. 

With two weeks left until the holiday weekend, there's still time for your online orders to arrive in time, and, as always, if you need help with anything, you can email me at caroline@dianiboutique.com. 

Welcome to spring, friends.

Sending lots of love,
