AHHHHHH…. LA!

253186810272994812_aJmKzGEF_c

I cannot believe it’s been since June that I’ve been in LA –  this used to feel like my home away from home, but lately with all my east coast travel, trips down the coast have been few and far between. I can’t tell you how happy it makes me to be back in my [...]

ROOM OF THE WEEK 8.30

steven gambrel fall colors room of the week

I can hardly believe that September is almost here, and fall quickly approaching. I may not be ready for the summer sunshine to leave, but I will be the first to admit that I do love that cozy feeling that a perfect fall palette evokes. Kinda like this… I’m absolutely in awe of the layers [...]

    I don’t typically leave comments on the blogs I follow, but interestingly, the photo you’ve posted used to be a client of mine when I worked for the General Contractor who built the apartment. I’ve spent my fair share of time in this specific room, and I agree, the room is amazing (as is the rest of the apartment). It’s the coziest place to be in the middle of Manhattan! So great to see you post this! :)

INTERIORS TO INSPIRE :: POLISHED ISLAND HOME

phoebe1

Phoebe Howard is one of my favorite designers – she never fails to have a new and fresh approach to a style we may have seen again and again. In this island home, she gives a traditional and classic spin to what could have been an all-too familiar beachy theme. Maggie here, with a space [...]

    I love the punches of orange with the blue. Orange has really been one of my favorite colors lately and it just looks gorgeous against the blue.

    See…I just knew those “glass floats” were cool when I used them in “decorating” years ago. Honestly, I put them e v e r y w h e r e (outdoor shower, in plants, on bobeches, etc., etc. franki

ROOM OF THE WEEK :: 7.26

Today’s Room of the Week couldn’t have been better timed. Tonight we’ll be celebrating coco+kelley’s 5-year anniversary with an intimate dinner party that just so happens to be inspired by these colors… (which also just so happen to be my favorite…) I may have literally gasped yesterday when the lovely Tracy Hiner shared some photos [...]

    This room is simply STUNNING! I love the wallpaper and agree with you that it makes the room. Your Valentino shoes would look so perfect in this room!

    Have fun at your party tonight. And congrats again on hitting the big 5!

FOODIE FASHIONISTA: BLOOD ORANGE

6960441207_7c9e3e8a14_o

It’s that time again! Foodie Fashionista time. Today I (Crissie, from Chicasaurus-Rex) am bringing you my most recent obsession: Blood Oranges. It started with a simple margarita one happy hour (if you’ve never had a blood orange margarita stop reading this and go get one, now!) And the next day I grabbed one for lunch. Blood Oranges are gorgeous, [...]

    Love cocktails with blood oranges in them! When scouring a menu, it is what my eyes are searching for. Via Tribunali in Fremont makes a great one.

    Love blood oranges and they have a short peak season. Try my favorite salad…need to post the recipe but here it is: arugula, fennel, parmesan shreds, blood oranges and red onion with balsamic viniagrette. The flavors together are heavenly.

    I actually did the exact same DIY art pieces in sunshine yellow and white. They turned out amazing and totally brightened up my foyer. xx Pat

    I agree about the artwork… I’ve really been looking for something that takes up a lot of wall real-estate, but with minimal cost. Might be something to try! I’d be very eager to see if you do the green and how it turns out!
