Whether you’re looking to spend your special evening at one of our restaurants, searching for a Valentine’s inspired floral arrangement from Avant Garden, or a gift for your loved one at Madison, Highland Park Village is the perfect place to celebrate. This month, we have our eyes on Santa Maria Novella fragrances at LAFCO New York, candles and decorations at St Michael’s Woman’s Exchange, and beautiful cards and cocktail napkins at Madison.

In a beautiful palette of navy, pale pink, and pops of bright corals, this collection is fresh and inviting. We’ve included a few of our favorites on Style & Social today.

Whether you work at home or in a corporate environment, an office is one room that tends to get over looked in terms of personal style. Too often we sacrifice style in the name of productivity, but this year that can change. Maybe it’s just a candle in a festive scent or a paperweight to keep piles in order, but even a small addition can pack plenty of personality into your professional space. Here are a few items on our office wish list we would be happy to unwrap on Christmas morning. Happy shopping!
