Aerin Lauder: Living with Flowers

In her new book, Aerin Lauder Living With Flowers, the legendary hostess and style icon shares ideas for how to incorporate flowers into every aspect of our lives. Released this week by Rizzoli, Living With Flowers highlights Aerin’s philosophy on entertaining and décor, inspiring both special occasions and the everyday moments with beauty and joy.

Aerin has a deeply personal love of flowers, which was passed down to her by her celebrated grandmother, Estée Lauder, as well as her mother, Jo Carole Lauder. Living with Flowers shares the many ways she brings flowers into her home including fresh bouquets, floral patterns on wallpaper, fabric, tabletop pieces, and perfume from her AERIN collection along with classics from Estée Lauder. Whether it’s an arrangement of daisies in the kitchen to welcome friends or family for dinner, or a single stem on her desk to brighten the workday, flowers are an essential part of Aerin’s home and lifestyle.

With creative ideas for designing arrangements—from embracing the simple elegance of a neutral palette or incorporating a whimsical mix of color, to enhancing your holiday décor with seasonal blooms—Aerin generously shares her favorite tips and secrets.

She also takes readers through her homes, showing how she brings the garden indoors through her decor. Elegant floral wallpaper in the dining room feels classic and timeless, floral curtains in the bedroom are romantic and luxurious, while her contemporary floral-patterned tabletop collections add effortless, yet modern florals to her entertaining.

Reflecting her unique blend of beauty and ease, Aerin’s floral designs and decor offer endlessly inspiring ideas for how readers can integrate flowers into their own homes to create inviting and personal spaces.
