June Musts

A New England Summer…There’s something about summer in New England that feels like a memory you’ve never lived. Salt air on linen skirts. Straw hats tossed in the back seat of a vintage convertible. The creak of saddle leather and the pop of a champagne cork at the edge of a polo field. This month, we’re leaning all the way in. We’re dreaming of summer not as a season, but as its own mood board (inspired by old Ralph Lauren catalogues). Think: weathered barns, hydrangeas in full, and interiors that feel as though they were curated by a poet in the Cotswolds. There’s a crisp elegance sprinkled throughout the blog—tumbled whites, soft florals, heirloom silver, sun-bleached linen. It’s the romance of a life well-worn and well-love.

This month, the musts world is all about mixing—and not just prints. We’re mixing lives. The glamor of the equestrian with the softness of the romantic. The tailored edge of menswear-inspired interiors with the delicate drape of washed linen. The ease of barefoot mornings on the porch with the polish of ironed napkins at dinner. It’s summer, after all.

 

Saddle UP

This summer, let your home feel like an estate passed down—not because of its size, but its story. Use equestrian touches in subtle, unexpected ways: roses in a vintage trophy cup, a faded floral wallpaper beside mahogany. Let nostalgia guide your palette: ivory, navy, camel, sage.
