Site Spotlight: 10 Pieces from OKA Direct

Last week British home furnishings company OKA Direct got in touch about reviewing its site. Established in 1999 as an interiors mail order catalogue, OKA now has 13 shops across the U.K.  The offerings are lovely—a satisfying blend of contemporary silhouettes in French Provincial finishes with a dash of Swedish sensibility in regards to the color palette. I’ve rounded up my ten favorite pieces for you.

Site Spotlight: Tiny Prints

It’s true that most tasks are best accomplished via email, but I’m a sucker for stationary. I pay my bills online, but I believe in hand-written thank you notes and pretty party invitations. So I was psyched when Tiny Prints signed on as a Style Carrot sponsor. Here’s a sampling of their adorable invites. The designs are cute and peppy, and cover pretty much any occasion, from baby announcements to holiday cocktail parties, sweet sixteens to changes of address, even gift tags and personalized organizers. Have a look at my favorites:
