Schuyler Samperton: Christmas Giving

Schuyler Samperton's list of Christmas Giving this year centers around her discoveries on Instagram. In putting it together she wrote to say, "I wanted to celebrate my creative friends - either those I’ve already known or those I’ve met through Instagram."

Let it SNOW! 

Schuyler accompanied by her constant companion Tricky—an Instagram star!

I adore these necklaces from my friend Liseanne Frankfurt – they’re found at her Venice, CA store LFrank and are made of a selection of antique African and Indonesian beads, shells, and 18K gold beads, each strung on an adjustable leather cord. I love the idea of layering them with abandon! Find the collection here.

Of course, I got this book, here, the second it came out but I love it so much I want a copy for every room in the house.” Miguel’s exquisite eye makes everything look sublime from Carolina Irving’s divine Paris apartment to Umberto Pasti and Stephan Janson’s magical home in Morocco.

 Gardenias. For me, they’re an unexpected alternative to the poinsettia or the amaryllis. The packaging is also gorgeous – it comes in a very glamorous, glossy black box! Send them from High Camp Supply here

I love the simple, elegant lines of the SAC 2 – it’s a modern classic that’s good for both men and women. It will be great for carrying our fabric samples! here

Each skirt that Jen Walsh of Emerge Designs here on Instagram, creates custom and handmade skirts from African or Dutch Wax printed cotton.

Schuyler was in Dallas recently and wore her Walsh skirt. I saw her post on Instagram and WOW! It was an IG sensation & a hit to the JAMES Showroom in Dallas where her collection of fabrics is available. This has been an incredible year for Schuyler—launching her collection, & seeing antique fragments or patterns in her mother's scarves.
