Industrial Chic

Love this Industrial Chic home of a designer couple from Dallas. Rue Magazine brings us on a tour of this amazing home that has even a bit of Glam thrown in to take off the harder edge of the industrial look. The bedroom is so good the gold accents against the white...so good! Touches of black throughout to ground the space mix with wood and concrete. Super gallery wall with fun accessories that keep it new and interesting...

Have a good weekend!

Bright Beach House

Such a pretty beach house with wonderful neutrals and brights from Coastal Living. Beachy feeling with a mix of wonderful fabrics on the headboard in the bedroom, stripes in the living room and dining room and super cute fabric in yellow on the chairs in the breakfast nook...very adventurous. All natural sisal carpets throughout and natural wood on the ceiling are the perfect compliment to the colours in the house. Of course what a view from the the sun room and what a view of the house .....talk about curb appeal!

Inspiration in White: Pink and Orange

The beautiful weather outside has got me feeling pretty much into hot colours these days. I especially love all of the oranges and pinks I am seeing. These work so well with a bohemian kind of style either with just spots of colour or even with walls of colour. Mixed with a bit of yellow or turquoise or a splash of green and you have got a fantastic look.

Something that is really catching my eye these days are the colourful Boucherouite rugs like the one in the last photo....I have the perfect spot in one of my clients home for this. It looks so good against all the white in the room don't you think?

Best Beach House Porches

So what does it take to make the best Beach House porch? Well I would say you need to have 5 things....

First I would say you need the best view! Why be near the water and not see it right. Nothing better than looking from your porch out onto the ocean or lake...so peaceful!

Second you need a great place to crash...cozy seating and lots of cushions for me. I love the idea of having a big cushy couch and maybe a porch swing or a rocker as well..so relaxing.

Third has to be a good spot for dining. Someplace that you can add nice lighting and enough room for friends and family to sit with you.

Four would be a good spot to sunbathe...just to lie out on a long chair and catch a few rays.

Lastly I would want part of the porch to be covered. A nice spot to get out of the sun but still take in that amazing view. 

What would you need your dream beach house porch to have?

Fashion Designer Apartment

A lovely stylish bedroom from the home of former fashion designer Adrianne Vitadini and Veranda Magazine to lead off the post tonight. Don't you love the mix of antique pieces with simple modern furnishings! The use of these little stools, in front of the bed and then again covered in leopard skin in this living room, really adds a wonderful touch. I also like how the living room has been divided into two seating areas...both gorgeous. The dining room is a little more traditional that I usually like but it works in this space for sure.

Inspiration in White: Art Photos

Lately I have been seeing so many homes with great large scale photo art prints and I really love them. I have seen them in the most sophisticated homes and they look really amazing. My daughter is a photographer and she has a great print in her bedroom and I have one in my hallway done by my friend who is a well know fashion photographer. I have been trying to get some of my clients to work in a piece here and there...such a perfect modern look that works in every setting.

Beach House Beauty

Such a cute beach house from Domino Magazine! Designed by Anna Burke, it has just the right amount of vintage, rustic charm mixed with a cool Palm Beach vibe. Of course the all white palette with accents of blue and white is one of my all time favourites, so this strikes a perfect note in my books. Love the high ceilings in the home and especially in the kitchen area....with these amazing lamps over open shelves it does not get any better!

Domino does it again for me! Always one of my go to magazines for inspiration!
