Black Gold



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!


Dhurrie Flurry

Right now, we are working with a couple of clients that are in need of rugs for kiddos, pets and high traffic areas. Dhurrie’s are a perfect solution. These flat woven cotton or wool rugs have rich history that begins in regions such as Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, and Tibet. Because of their tight weave and low pile, these are durable solutions for any space. Here are a few of our favorites:

Flea Finds: Pattern Play

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








Summer Essentials

This summer is flying by faster than green grass through a goose! Even though it has been a scorcher, I am loving every minute of it. Here are a few things that I can’t get enough of this season:

1. One Day by David Nicholls. This achingly beautiful book about friendship is so moving, I tore through it in two days!


2. NARS Funny Face Lip Pencil: This color just screams summer. Can’t stop wearing it with everything!

3. My Perez Prado station on Pandora. This spicy music is perfect for strolling the boiling streets of NYC.


4. Vionnet’s 2011 Resort Collection: Now, this collection won’t come out until January…but if I could have any dress to get me through this heat, this is what I would want to wear everyday!


5. The Spritz: Our summer drink! This fizzy cocktail, which is quite common in Northern Italy, makes the perfect apéritif, but it can be and is (admittedly) often drunk any time of day.


APEROL SPRITZ. 2 parts Aperol, 3 parts Prosecco, splash of soda or seltzer. Ice, half a slice of orange.

Warning: these puppies go down fast!


Eye-Candy




My friend Joanna showed me the work of amazing emerging Australian jewelry designer Sylvie Markovina this week. You know that feeling of wanting to take home everything in sight? Well, I had to do my best at not taking anything home…it helped that these are not quite available here in the states. But, look for them soon at INVEN.TORY in NYC. Can’t Wait!
