Miranda Jones, Style Editor at Sunset Magazine
14
It shouldn't come as a big surprise that Sunset Magazine's Style Editor, MIRANDA JONES, can make just about anything look pretty—she's responsible for styling a vast majority of the still life and interior scenes in the magazine every month. Maybe it's her Montana upbringing, maybe it's the fact that she's the daughter of a chef, or maybe it's just the fact that she's laidback and cool, but she has an uncanny knack for finding things that are both relaxed, earthy, and gorgeous.
Here, the 14 things Miranda Jones stockpiles
(that make us want to stockpile them, too).
- 1
Duchess Marden Damascene
Rose WaterI'm totally addicted to this rose water. Maybe it's the light, calming scent. Maybe it's the pureness of the ingredients. Frankly, the why doesn't matter. I've tried them all and this
one is simply the best. - 2
Essie Geranium Nail Polish
The most flattering orangy red I have ever found. This color inspired me to plant a whole mess of geraniums in front of my house. (What? Your flowers don't match your nails?)
- 3
Aalto Vase
This classic vase comes in every size and color and is the grown up equivalent to baseballs cards; you want to collect them all.
- 4
Weck Jars
In my parallel universe life (the one where everything is perfectly organized) all of my dry goods are stored in these glass jars.
- 5
Virginia Johnson Shawls
A friend introduced me to these over sized wool shawls and now I consider myself an addict. They manage to be both the warmest and most lightweight things ever.
- 6
Bouvet Brut Rose Excellence/
Schramsberg Brut RoseNothing like bubbly rose to turn anything into an occasion!
- 7
Stranahans Colorado Whiskey
Thanks to Stranahans, I can now claim to be a whiskey drinking kind of girl. (You can now lavish me with street cred).
- 8
Anthousa Bougainvillea Diffuser
It took a long time for me to find the ideal scent for my bedroom but now that I have, let the hoarding begin.
- 9
Dayala Body Balm by InFiore
My skin asks for this body balm by name. At first it seemed way too thick for my skin but now I can't imagine going back to lotion.
- 10
Flowers by Studio Choo
The arrangements from Studio Choo are perfectly imperfect and always in season.
- 11
Universal Tumblers
These restaurant quality glasses are handsome, durable and priced to sell. I have noticed them at more than a few San Francisco culinary hot spots (and I don't just mean my own house).
- 12
Art by Michelle Armas
Proof that art can be pretty and serious at the same time.
- 13
Mode de Paris G. Lalo Correspondence Cards in Rose
My favorite choice for thank you cards in a light, shell pink. Girly, but ladylike.
- 14
Chambray Shirts
My dependency on chambray shirts has me believing that they are acceptable for every outing from farmers markets to dinner parties. I refuse to accept that this is not the case.
