Recently I've worked myself into a sort of frenzy over monogrammed and initialed items (I blame all the preppy tumblrs I follow). The truth is that I can't help but love a little bit of personalization, something that says "This is mine, don't touch it" even better than staking claim by licking things - not that I've done that in the past 15 years. I think my real love of monograms and initials started with Tommy Hilfiger sweaters. Sure, the giant 'H' is supposed to stand for Hilfiger but I can just as easily pretend it stands for Hanna. Or Howard. The sweater I received for Christmas didn't quite quell my desire and now I'm seeking out even more lettered goodies. Here are some of my favorites:
I'm also quite taken with these
monogram plates from Neiman Marcus:
If only I had endless resources and the space to throw summer dinner parties, these plates would be on my shopping list.
