Power of a Purse Contest Winner

Power of a Purse @LaylaGrayce

Mothers & More, a non-profit dedicated to improving mothers’ lives through support, education and advocacy, established Power of a Purse in 2009 to spotlight mothers’ economic issues in part by collecting new and gently used purses for mothers in need.

Last month, we announced the Mothers & More writing contest, inviting you to share how the mission of Power of a Purse has touched your life, from past money struggles to saving for retirement to paying for your child’s college education.

Today, we’re excited to join with Mothers & More in announcing the contest winner! We’re sending our sincerest congratulations to Joanne Gepp. As our honored winner, Joanne will be receiving a beautiful new Rebecca Minkoff handbag donated by Layla Grayce, among other prizes.

Editors’ Pick: Imperial Trellis Trelliage Wallpaper

Imperial Trellis Trelliage Wallpaper Featured in HGTV Magazine @LaylaGrayce

We thought we couldn’t possibly love the Pantone color of the year, Emerald Green, more than we already did but that changed when we discovered the Imperial Trellis Trelliage Wallpaper. Celebs and editors agree with us – Chloe Sevigny chose this striking pattern for her foyer and HGTV Magazine featured it in the May 2013 issue.

Rebecca Minkoff MAC Handbags & Mini MAC Clutches

Rebecca Minkoff MAC Handbags & Mini MAC Clutches in Leather and Basketweave
Rebecca Minkoff: Cerulean Combo MAC Clutch, Rose Gold Mini MAC, Almond MAC Clutch, Bombe Cream MAC Clutch, Navy Criss Cross Mini MAC Clutch

Known for her girly-edge, Rebecca Minkoff creates collections that always top our list of handbags. Made with the softest leathers and distinctive hardware, her bags are stand-outs but are also incredibly versatile. One of her signature styles, the MAC (available in a mini size, too!) is our pick for summer must-have-bag. Offered in a number of colors and patterns, and a convertible style that goes from crossbody to clutch, this is the bag for everyone! If it’s a bold color you’re after, we suggest the MAC Clutch in Cerulean Combo. Or if you’re looking for something with a little sparkle, try the Mini MAC in Rose Gold–simply stunning! If you need something neutral, we love the MAC Bombe in Cream. The subtle snake embossed print on leather adds the perfect amount of interest. For more must-have Minkoffs, view our full collection.

MET Gala Fashion – For The Home!

Cameron Diaz MET Gala Fashion @LaylaGrayce
Cameron Diaz 1. Worlds Away Oval Mirror 2. Worlds Away Gold Leafed Pendant 3. Stud Poof 4. Jonathan Adler Marine Chair 5. Blue Pillow Pair

Cameron has been impressing us with her red carpet ensembles for years now, and once again, she totally nailed it! The rich indigo hue and modern cape on her Stella McCartney gown made our jaws drop. To replicate Cameron’s sleek look (at home!), try furniture with clean lines, such as Jonathan Adler’s Marine Chair. Accentuate the gorgeous indigo color by adding throw pillows in a similar hue. Remember: gold accents pair beautifully with the deep blue, and we love the Worlds Away Gold Leaf Pendant.

Hailee Steinfeld MET Gala Fashion @LaylaGrayce
Hailee Steinfeld 1. Supernovae Mirror 2. Yellow Swirl Embroidered Pillow 3. Claybourne Leather Sofa 4. Currey and Company Wall Sconce Set 5. Worlds Away Gold Mirror Chest

Hailee may be young, but she is already a staple on the best-dressed lists, and undoubtedly makes ours in Donna Karan Atelier. This dress was a favorite with its subtle edge design, featuring a classic silhouette with far-from-conventional materials (think leather and gold safety pin embellishments) that were perfect for the starlet! To get this look in your home, opt for pieces both timeless and modern. We suggest the Claybourne Leather Sofa accented with pops of gold, a la the yellow swirl embroidered pillow.

Gwyneth Paltrow MET Gala Fashion @LaylaGrayce
Gwyneth Paltrow 1. Square Silver Mirror 2. Currey and Company Chandelier 3. Can Pink Embroidered Pillow 4. Bamboo Pink Embroidered Pillow 5. Arteriors Silver Leaf Accent Table

A Met Gala without Gwyneth ruling the red carpet? Highly unlikely! She looked absolutely radiant in her hot pink Valentino gown. The combination of a demure silhouette and modern nude paneling made for a fresh and innovative design. To capture Gwyn’s glam look, bring in statement-making pieces in a bold color. Currey & Co.’s Maharani Chandelier is the perfect piece to elevate your space with girly yet modern flair.
