Fleur – one of my favorite shops in the city !

Today we took a trip to my favorite flower shops in the city – Fleur.  I discovered this beautiful floral shop at a Soho House DIY floral arrangement event. I love the artistic eye of the florists. The floral arrangements remind of a beautiful mix of the vintage world meeting modern day luxury.  At least that is what I would call it =)!  Flowers inspire me!  I typically have a fresh vase of flowers on my desk to inspire me to write about beauty.  On many occasions I have visited this shop for a bit of beautiful inspiration.

I just love the smell of fresh cut flowers!

Typically I like to pick out the flowers that catch my eye and then hand them over to the florist to make something beautiful out of them. I am always fully happy with my arrangements. I mean look at their beautiful Instagram feed @fleurinc. These guys know what they are doing. Gorgeous!  Today I put in my order for my Christmas floral centerpiece  for the dinner table. It will definitely go up on the Instagram feed once its ready. Can’t wait to see what they will put together. I highly recommend their beautiful floral arrangements if you are hosting a Christmas party this year to add that simple yet elegant piece to your party.  I believe their prices are very reasonable anywhere between $15-$30 (including a vase), that is typically how much I spend.

On my first trip to Fleur I was so surprised to see that they sold more than just flowers. This cute little shop located in Logan Square, also has stationary, cards, scarfs, clothes, soap, candles, cute mugs, dishes and much more. Its the perfect spot to get a unique beautiful gift for that special person on your Christmas list.

And they carry journals form my favorite stationary company Sugar Paper! I love these guys. You can find them at Target too!

Who doesn’t love a journal that starts with “Its your story, write it down.”? Love this!!

These soaking salts are so gently nudging me to take a bath, relax and calm down from my busy day!

I love the shop because I know that every time I return I will find so many new treasures to take home for inspiration. It is always important to support local businesses, this is one of my city favorites. Next time you are in Logan Square stop by and say hi.

Love in abundance,

Jamie
