COOKING & ENTERTAINING
Pie holder
A fabulous pie plate is a charming addition to your holiday tabletop. With a glass dish framed by a woven-basket exterior, it blends traditional craftsmanship with approachable elegance. Ideal for both sweet pies and savory quiches and tarts, it’s one piece that brings function and style to gatherings year-round. Shop this for $72 at Rhodes.
Chocolate cake
This flourless chocolate cake lives up to its name — it’s heaven. Dense, rich, and gluten-free, it’s handmade in small batches with simple ingredients and zero preservatives. Serve it chilled with fresh berries for a no-fuss dessert that will absolutely steal the show. Made in a bakery in Highlands, NC, this is perfect for the Thanksgiving season. Shop your cake for $20 at The Cottage Shop — and be sure to check out even more pie/cake companies that ship.
Turkey tea towel
This turkey-print tea towel is the kind of kitchen accent that feels festive without trying too hard. It’s perfect for drying dishes or draping over a bread basket come feast day. It’s 100% linen, designed in Savannah, GA, and made in Europe. This is $28 at Darling Lemon.
HOME
Antique mirrored tray
This gilded mirrored tray adds instant vintage charm to any vignette. Use it to anchor candles, glassware, or perfume bottles … or let it shine solo as a statement accent. Its antiqued glass and curved edges bring just the right touch of old-world elegance to a fall table or dresser. Find this for $109 at Meadow.
New coffee table book
Southern designer and author James T. Farmer III invites readers back into a world of layered beauty and timeless charm with Home Again: A Return to Gracious Interiors. Through stunning photography by Emily Followill, James showcases spaces that balance comfort and elegance — rooms filled with color, history, and hospitality. It’s the perfect coffee-table book for anyone craving a fresh dose of Southern inspiration. This is $50 at Abide a While.
GUYS
Everyday golf polo
This new Southern golf apparel brand was created to help golfers play their best in the heat and look good on and off the course. Their top-rated performance polo is made of a proprietary jersey fabric that keeps skin five degrees cooler. It’s also UPF 50+ and has active wicking and quick-drying qualities. (We also love the absence of loud logos!) Shop this for $99 at Juniper & James.
Needlepoint hat
The needlepoint gurus at Smathers & Branson have an array of new classic hat styles for every sporty guy or gal in your life. There are dog silhouettes, music-lover images, and everything in between. The motifs are needlepointed onto the cotton hats available in multiple colors. Find the perfect hat for $45 at Smathers & Branson.
Desk calendar
Everyone needs a fresh desk calendar as we start planning next year’s travel. This National Parks one features 12 unique full-color vintage illustrations of U.S. National Parks, sturdy spiral binding so it can sit upright or flat, and each page has ample space for notes and reminders. Shop this for $19 at Red Barn Mercantile.
FASHION
Dress
Everything about this dress is perfect for early fall — the colors, the print, the stripes, the sleeves. It’s made of 100% cotton with a flattering tie-waist, puffed short sleeves, side pockets, and a block print that adds texture and character. Pair it with over-the-knee boots and a structured blazer to add a touch of glam! It’s $95 at Armoire.
Cord necklaces
Rope meets refinement in these hand-twisted cord necklaces from Malby. Pair the cord of your choice with a sculptural charm — think gilded oysters, crescent moons, and hearts — for an effortlessly bold finish. Mix metals or wear solo for a polished, undone look that works from brunch to black tie. These range from $40 to $45 at Malby.
Sweater
Sleek, timeless, and just a touch retro, this ribbed knit sweater hits all the right notes for fall. The rich Bordeaux hue feels effortlessly chic, while the slim fit and classic collar make it easy to dress up or down. The luxe texture blends merino wool with shimmering metallic threads for a just-right touch of sparkle. Shop this for $95 at Moosh.
New PJs
Mallory Ervin’s new line of loungewear is all the rage, and we love the lively chartreuse print of this set. Made from ultra-soft, temperature-regulating modal, they feel silky and breathable — perfect for movie nights or sleeping in. There are many different styles, but this set is available for $86 at In My Sundays.
Silver rings
Handcrafted and subtly textured, these hammered silver bands add effortless sophistication to everyday wear. Lightweight and versatile, they’re the kind of minimalist jewelry you never take off — elegant alone or stacked together with other metals and gems for a bolder look. These rings range from $25.60 to $44.80, depending on size (2 mm to 5 mm) at GildedBug.
KIDS (AND KIDS AT HEART)
Puzzle
Celebrate Southern school spirit year-round with True South’s Lucie Rice-designed “Tailgating Traditions of the SEC” puzzle. Featuring vibrant illustrations of iconic game-day scenes, it’s a colorful ode to Southern football culture, perfect for on- or off-season fun or gifting your favorite fan. This beautiful puzzle is $24.95 at The Homestead Mercantile.
Thanksgiving tablecloth
Add a playful twist to your Thanksgiving table with this large, imagination-ready paper tablecloth. It’s printed with a cast of fun autumn icons — pumpkins, mushrooms, turkeys, foxes, and more — and invites guests of all ages to color in the design. This makes a great gift, too, if you’re going elsewhere for Thanksgiving! Snag one for $22 at Hester & Cook.
Alphabet game
Make learning letters fun and stylish with this magnetic play set from Oioiooi. Thoughtfully designed and built to last, each chunky magnetic piece is perfectly sized for little hands. Made with eco-friendly materials and beautifully illustrated cards, it’s a durable, design-forward upgrade to classic alphabet toys. This is $38 at The Collective Shop.
Cheers to the start of the most joyful holiday season yet.
