Home Must-Haves for the New Year

Now is the perfect time to shop for items for your home or apartment and give your living space the perfect jump start. Here are a few on our to-buy list (confession: some I have already bought since they were too cute to resist!)


I have recently fallen in love with these Moscow Mule mugs. The mugs first appeared in the 1950’s to serve the classic vodka and ginger beer cocktail known as the Moscow Mule. This year, the drink came back in a big way and the mugs have been adopted for everything from morning coffee to a cold cocktail or iced tea. I bought a few of the copper mugs for my apartment against my boyfriend’s best wishes. We’ll, this morning, guess who was sipping his coffee from it? You guessed it. These mugs are $24 at West Elm.


When it comes to chevron, a few accents go a long way. We love these chevron coasters, just $12.50 from J. Crew.

This Chevron pillow cover from West Elm has also caught our eye. It comes in a variety of colors.


A good chaise is on my apartment wish list this year. I’ve been lusting after this Crosby chaise lounge in cream. Will make me extra careful with the red wine.
