Restoration Hardware’s new aviator-inspired collection has really resonated with me. (Last summer I got to go up in a 4-person Cessna and the pilot let me steer and land it. Ever since I’ve dreamed about getting my pilot’s license.) The whole collection takes its design cues from vintage planes, including World War II fighter jets. I especially love the Wing Desk ($2,195) and Spitfire Chair ($1,095—$1,390 originally, but on sale now for a limited time!). So until I find myself at cruising altitude, I can still feel like I’m flying in style. To get in the pilot’s seat yourself, visit Restoration Hardware stores in Westport, Greenwich, and Westchester or go to restorationhardware.com.
