In today's episode of Connoisseur Reviews, I'm sharing the chicest house slippers, the amazing tea set collaboration between Victoria Magazine and April Cornell, as well as an Engagement ring special, plus much more.
⚜️ April Cornell/ Victoria Magazine Blue Roses tea set This limited edition porcelain tea set is so charming and delightful. Here is the description from Victoria Magazine:
This exquisite porcelain tea set, featuring romantic floral designs painted by acclaimed artist April Cornell, delights in both form and function. Available as a complete collection and also sold separately, pieces include a 32-ounce teapot, a sugar and creamer set, a pair of teacups, and a serving tray sized to hold the other accoutrements. For this elegant line of wares, gently scalloped surfaces mesh seamlessly with berry-shaped finials and elegant handles—styling that brings the classic beauty of Limoges heirlooms to today’s table. Whether displayed in the home or used in entertaining, this limited-edition assortment of treasures in the Blue Roses pattern offers a lovely ode to timeless pleasures associated with gracious living.
⚜️ Chic House slippers Women are always asking me about comfortable house slippers that are also pleasing to look at. Here are three of my finds from Amazon... all under $25.
Red velvet bow slippers These beautiful slippers come in a variety of colors and add a feminine and elegant touch to our outfits at home. I am wearing these with Hipstik leg wear JEN15 for 15% off
Isotoner satin ballet slippers for women are comfortable and machine washable. These are the slippers I can move around in most easily without worrying about them falling off my feet. Chic Society member, April, recommended them to me. Thank you, April!
Pom pom slipper (similar) These slippers remind me of Old Hollywood glamour and add a fun touch to every outfit.
⚜️ Top knot headbands (for big heads š)
This multi-pack of top knot headbands are created for larger heads or people with a lot of hair. When I wear regular headbands, I can get a headache after an hour or so. I can wear these all day in comfort. They are great for disguising a bad hair day.
⚜️Flower press (in the microwave!)
This microwave flower press is so innovative. Perfect for impatient people (ha!) You can have pressed flowers in 30 seconds. Simply place the flowers on the flower press, seal with the clamps, and microwave at 30 second intervals (you might have to do a bit more). My daughters and I have had so much fun collecting flowers and pressing them for craft projects.
⚜️ Dental care
Dr. Plotkas toothbrush I have enjoyed discovering these toothbrushes that have flossing bristles and are embedded with silver, which eliminates 99.7% of bacteria between brushes.
⚜️ Father's Day
I hope Ben's not reading this blogpost because this is what he's getting for Father's Day. The Bend Soap Company's new menswear line, which has very masculine scents in all natural formulations. Code DC10 for 10% off
⚜️Engagement rings
With Clarity Because it's wedding and engagement season, I thought I'd dive into the world of engagement rings. With Clarity is a company that allows you to design the exact ring you like and then they send a replica to your home so you can see if you like the look of it.
Sturm Brothers' Jewelry is the family business of Elegant Connoisseur, Mrs. TJ Sturm. This is a wonderful small business dedicated to quality jewelry making, particularly in creating heirloom rings for modern day.
I hope you enjoy today's video.

Would you please do a video about the lovely wallpapers in your house and tell us what they are? I especially love the paper with the white flowers and blue background.
ReplyDeleteI LIVE (especially these days) in my Isotoner ballet slippers! The fact that the bottoms aren't rubber (too noisy) and the fact that I can't walk out of them, are the reasons they are my very favorite. Those with the bows and pom-poms are cute - and based on their price point - I might try them. But I know that my heart belongs with the Isotoner slippers.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Susan! The wallpaper in this video is by spoonflower.
ReplyDeleteGigi- I love the isotoners too! They are soo comfortable xx
