After N and I got engaged and set a wedding date, I needed to find a store that our family could actually go to for gifts since Crate and Barrel does not have a location in Bryan, TX or Arnold, MO (shocking!) Enter Kohl's - they had a lot of items that I wouldn't mind having around the house, including my white Fiestaware that's hard to find and towels that aren't $54 each (wtf Macy's?).
Once the wedding was over, we ended up with lots of gift cards and went to our local store to see what we could buy. I was really happy to see the new Elle Decor collection as well as some other home items that look very unlike the usual department store offerings.
I especially like the marble top side table and lotus candle holder. But I only have $50 in gift cards left... decisions, decisions
