all images// Alder & Co.

I have a wishlist a mile long, but with the official start of Winter close at hand, nothing appeals to me quite like the offerings at Portland based Alder & Co. It’s been a tough year, and I’m aiming for a relaxed, purposed end to 2016 and start to 2017, with a major emphasis on comfort. These goods do the trick. If my husband hadn’t already gotten my Christmas gifts, I’d be sending this list immediately.

//Button up blouse for dressing up or down without the fuss.
//Brass pin for subtle interest on a sweater or jacket.
//Relaxed jeans in black for feeling comfortable and put together.
//Wool socks for a utilitarian and stylish touch.
//A grey coat to wear with all my favorite oversized pieces.
//Canvas tote for exciting holiday travels.
//Striped pajamas for lounging in bed with a good book.
//A beautiful honey jar to display on the counter–for easy access when sweetening the copious amounts of hot tea I’ll be drinking.
//A shallow black bowl for serving up those warm winter dishes I’ve been wanting to try.
