New Terra Chips: Stripes & Blues
How very patriotic of Terra to introduce a red, white, and blue chip medley they call Stripes and Blues. They are much healthier than the Lays chips I ate as a kid since they are made with 3 kinds of harvested veggies, not just your average potato. The red chips are made from sweet potatoes, the blue chips are made from blue potatoes, and the striped chips are striped beets.

I chatted with interior stylist, expert flea marketer, Etsy seller, former Top Design contestant, and blogger Eddie Ross — a man of many talents — about his go-to gift ideas for the holidays and here's what he had to say:
- "A friend of mine, Susan Schneider, makes these amazing matchboxes that I always give as gifts throughout the year. They're covered with gorgeous wallpapers and trimmed in copper, and perfect for the holidays.
Redheads, White and Blue at Anglomania Fashion Show
The stars were out in London yesterday for Vivienne Westwood's Anglomania fashion show at Selfridges' underground car park, featuring gorgeous Daisy Lowe as one of the models.

Casa Craving Recap: Blue Striped Danish Bench
I had your home décor tastes in mind last week, so for the latest Casa Craving Challenge, I decided to see you how well you could instill your personal style into a room built around a piece that isn't everyone's style. I spotted a vintage Danish bench with preppy, rugby-esque blue stripes from Hudson, and challenged you to make it work with your aesthetic in one particular room of your choice.
Everyone did a good job at creating a list that was cohesive, and that you could really visualize.
Looks of the Week!
Bring on the drama! That's exactly what you all did this week. My favorite bold looks are modern mod, total drama, sparkler, whimsy girl, military man, rock star, striped business, and electric blue.

Steal of the Day: Hand-tufted Blue Stripes Wool Rug
I'm a loyal supporter of Overstock.com. Their inventory is enormous; it's all discounted; it's changing all the time; and last but not least, the cost of shipping is always just $2.95. Yes there's a lot of ugly in there, but if you take the time to sift through it all, it might be worth it.
Casa Craving Challenge: Blue Striped Danish Bench
Every Thursday on CasaSugar, I'll give you a decorating challenge and ask you to go Casa Craving for items that fit the look. (Here's a post explaining what a Casa Craving is and how to create one.)
The latest Casa Craving Challenge is inspired by the thought that you the readers don't necessarily have the same home décor tastes as CasaSugar. So, this challenge will be training in how to make something work that may not necessarily jive with whatever furniture, accessories, tableware, lighting, and other home accents you're usually drawn to.

A nautical influence is always present in fashion. Whether it be breton stripes, brass buttons or wide leg trousers you can always channel the style some how.
