The Goods
Vibrant and soothing colors, dynamic and classic patterns, modern and traditional shapes -- this boutique has it all. Everything that you need to furnish your home in eclectic style can be found perusing their seemingly endless collection. Heck, they even have their own low-VOC paint line!
The Secret
Textile designer and artist Serena Dugan teamed up with Lily Kanter, a corporate refugee turned baby boutique owner, in 2003 with the intention of creating fresh, colorful children's spaces. Under the name Serena & Lily they soon debuted 14 bedding sets and 30 fabric patterns that brought a fresh look to baby nurseries. But their love of unique and inspired decors didn't stop there, eventually expanding to carry everything from upholstered beds to ceramic lamps and dhurrie rugs -- and even fabulous bedding that's stylish enough to be found in the home of a Kardashian. The fashionable duo is inspired by worldly travels, unexpected colors and patterns and reinvented classics, so expect to find products that reflect that.
Things to Know
If you especially love one-of-a-kind goods, check out their bazaar sales, which feature a slew of unique finds from around the world. Check back randomly (or sign up for their emails).
Also good to know? Co-founder Lily Kanter was on a mission to inspire kids to change the world, and thus the World Repair Kit took form. It's a fun book for kids that provides facts, inspiration and tools that empower them to make the world a better place -- it may not be decor related, but it's pretty cool if you ask us.
