Roundup: Pretty, Patterned Towels
In my own bathroom, I'm a white tile, white towel kind of girl. I like to keep them simple and easily replaceable since everyday towels do wear out. Guest bathrooms, I think, are the place to get busy (wink, wink).
Casa Quickie: Roll With It
There's only so much we can do to make our storage look pretty without calling in California Closets for a pricey custom mahogany masterpiece — like Debi Mazar's shoe paradise. But just because you gotta work with what you got doesn't mean you're at a loss. When it comes to storing towels, roll them and stack them instead of folding them.
Steal of the Day: Lauria Beach Towel
Beyond your average, solid, monogrammed towel, sophisticated beach towels are hard to come by, particularly if you'd like a patterned one. So take note: the Pottery Barn Lauria Beach Towel ($29, reduced from $39) is on sale and completely chic. Its artfully rendered botanical graphic is inspired by the vintage watercolor books that decoupage artist John Derian makes a living on.
Sale Alert: 30% Off Towels at Garnet Hill
Garnet Hill is currently offering 30 percent off all of the towels in the shop. I know that my towels have seen far, far better days, so I'll definitely be hitting up this sale. Some of you may be expecting guests for the holidays, so perhaps you should consider giving them a fresh bath sheet to dry off with.
Casa Quickie: Decorate with Beach Towels
If your bank account is suffering, your Summer Style needn't suffer too. One cheap way to decorate your home this month is with beach towels. A Domino reader did so in her '70s Venice, CA home, and you'd never guess that it cost her under $20 for the project.
Etsy Find: Mix Tape Kitchen Towel
If, like me, you have fond teen memories of the beloved mix tape, then you might find yourself breathing a nostalgic sigh at the sight of this Mix Tape Kitchen Towel ($9.50). Each 100 perent cotton flower sack kitchen towel is silk screened with a print of a large mix tape in blue ink. Since each one is screened by hand, yours will be unique, just like that mix tape from 1992 that your first high school boyfriend passed to you in the hall between Algebra I and AP Biology.
Love It or Hate It? Tattoo-Inspired Tea Towels
Do you love this True Love Embroidered Tea Towel ($19)? Or is it a little too tattoo-tough-looking for you?

Steal of the Day: Martha Stewart Faux Bois Towels
If you've yet to cash in on the faux bois trend, now's the time. A bona fide bargain shopper, I couldn't bring myself to pay full price for Martha Stewart's Faux Bois collection for Macy's, but now that some items are nearly 40 percent off, I'll gladly pony up. I'm loving the Martha Stewart Collection Faux Bois Towels ($5.99-$13.99), in particular.
Steal of the Day: Pottery Barn Classic Stripe Bath Towels
If you're still drying off with the ratty bath towels you arrived with at your freshman college dorm, it's probably time to ante up and welcome some fresh new towels to your linen closet. I cannot tell you how much of a difference it will make in your morning cleansing routine. Thankfully, you don't have to tread these new waters at the expense of style or your wallet.
How To: Fold a Towel Like an Elephant
If you've ever been on a cruise, especially one patronized by kids, your maid may have transformed your towels into fun, yet somewhat disturbing, animal shapes. I have to admit I always wondered how to make them. Learn how to fold up your very own Babar when you read more
