Retail / Travel

Life’s a Beach!

I’m back from a wonderful family vacation. We spent five glorious days in Amagansett, NY enjoying the beach, sun, great food and each other.

Driving through Wainscott, I happened upon Serena & Lily.  Serena Dugan & Lily Kanter started their California-based company in 2003 selling couture nursery products, then expanded to other home goods and now art. In May 2013 they opened their first retail store in the Hamptons – a location indicative of their coastal-chic style. I was so happy to have the opportunity to see the products in person. I hopped out of the car on our way back home and snapped some pics to share. The Hamptons store did not disappoint. It was airy, bright, filled with patterns, textures and colorful coastal hues (plus there was a rickshaw filled with pillows and a surfboard out front!).
