Last week, celebrity interior designer Jake Arnold debuted his new Crate & Kids collection in an unlikely spot—a moody cocktail lounge at the top of New York City’s Fifth Avenue Hotel.

Obsession: This Amazing Tote on Wheels Makes Shlepping Chic

2 months ago | elledecor.com | Ingrid Abramovitch

With spring on the horizon, I'm already planning trips to some of my favorite seasonal events that feature shopping. The list is long. There's the standout plant and garden antiques sale (and Martha Stewart sighting opportunity), Trade Secrets in Falls Village, Connecticut, on May 17 and 18. From summer rose bushes to ceramic planters, it's going to be more than I can carry. One day (goals!) I'll make it to Brimfield or Round Top.
