This eye popping combination of craftsmanship and artistry, combined with the simplicity of well curated modern pieces is the perfect dessert to cap off this beautiful Labor Day weekend. We love how the ornate fresco paintings on the walls, ceilings and doors, perfectly define the spaces. The genius is in the restraint of juxtaposing such elaborateness with modern, sleek furniture.

From fashion to inside the home, we can’t get enough of black and gold. This killer combo combines the cool of black with the richness of gold to create a modern space that oozes with rich glamour. Be it worn on our bodies or on our walls, we think you can’t go wrong with these two colors!

We’re so lucky to be featured on the cover of this month’s Lonny Magazine. Many thanks to the lovely Michelle, Patrick and Ellie for including us in this issue!! Check it out online here: www.lonnymag.com.

Last weekend’s flea was stocked full of colorful finds. From textiles, art and antique kaftans, check out what caught our eyes:

Suki Cheema, one of DVF’s creative masterminds, has turned his inventive eye for pattern into a new home collection of hand crafted pillows, quilts, throws, napkins and tablecloths. The range is inspired by Cheema’s love affair between art, travel and textiles. With such strong geometric shapes and graphic designs, we are having a hard time picking our favorites!
