simply stunning..

 

The over sized woven light is such a wonderful, simple statement piece.  I love the simplicity of the furnishings with the detail of the stone and architecture.

Texture and light

 

What is there not to love about a sweet home in the snow...  I love the raw texture and the beaming in these spaces with the clean white paint.  A wonderful backdrop for just about anything.

weekend wishes....

 

It's the weekend again!!!  Aren't you excited?  I cannot wait to take it a little easier and get to my fall cleaning.. I know it is similar to spring cleaning but I really feel the need to simplify and complete projects right now.  Maybe it is mental preparation for the upcoming holidays, I am not sure, but I want to clean everything out and eliminate the excess in my life.  

A few things that are inspiring me this week...

I found this while looking for a piece for a client and I need 2 for my bedroom!

We all may need new dishes this year - yes?

Perfect picnic salad

I keep moving these around the house while I decorate for fall..

Are you ready to go back to Paris yet.. I am... this time just to relax and take photos of everything I see!

Also, don't miss your chance to win a copy of the new Vintage by Nina book!

Bold in black... 47 Park Avenue

 

I came across a single image from this gorgeous home on pinterest and fell hard!  This is such an inspiring space, and just one of many on Micheal's blog.   He covers their renovation in beautiful detail and the results are enough to make me want to paint everything black and white and add bold mixes of color.  It is beyond wonderful! 

 

 

I love the pups too!  They also have an English bulldog that is not pictured here.. yes I may have stalked the blog a little!

greige wood paneling..

 

Simple elegance in this dining room is just amazing... simple clean lines with just enough detail to make it perfect.  

 It is a wonderful start for a Friday don't you think?  I am almost done with my installations this week, it always seems to take a bit more time than you think, with a little something coming up here or there.  I hopefully will be able to share some pictures tomorrow.  But for now I will take a second to day dream about the upcoming weekend and spending a little time for me.

Masculine winter...

 

This space makes me want to start up that fire and pour a glass of wine.  I love that it has an air of mystery, what is up above?  How tall are the ceilings really?  It is pretty amazing!

Has fall turned cold finally for you?  We are finally starting to feel it here in California and I am glad for the change.

just a dash..

 

I know it is the holiday season... I am just not quite ready to go all the way!  I adore the little touches of pink in this space.  It is refreshing and feminine.  I wish you a wonderful Tuesday my friends and maybe just maybe we can hold off the Christmasness until December 1st this year.. or maybe not.

greige and green..

 

We have been searching for the perfect fireplace and I dream of something this beautiful.  Although it would need to be scaled down quite a bit I love the feeling it brings to the space.  This room seems so clean yet comforting and that little touch of color in the table and the pillow makes it perfect for me.

greige and pink...

 

I fell for the eclectic mix in this space, that and the windows and multiple fireplaces.  The wall color is fantastic and the little accents of pink and feminine touches are just perfection.  This is the home of Hilary Robertson, the owner of Mrs. Robertson in Ft. Greene and it is a divine mix of vintage and well traveled collections, just the way a home should feel.

Feeling fall...

 

I am completely feeling fall this week, it has finally started to cool off here in Southern Cal., for a few days anyway.  I want to drink hot tea, write in a journal and do it all in front of a warm cozy fireplace.  But alas, the house is pulled apart, I have no stove to heat water on and no time to rest, so can you enjoy it for me?  Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

 

Masculine lounge...

I fell madly for this room when I saw it in Atlanta Home and Lifestyles.  I love the masculine feel of the space and the contrast of the dark upholstery with  the white walls.  Another great detail is the way that designer Jimmy Stanton balances out the window with the stack of books and antlers.
