Room Crush: Eclectic Mix

I hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday season! I'm back with another fantastic room to share with you all. I am so in love with that lucite table and orange chair. Seeing this photo makes me want to swap out the ivory rug I have in my living room now with the cheetah skin rug that currently lives in our office. Now all I need is that table....

Initial Here

The monogram is having a major moment. Usually reserved for the preppy (or the Southern) the monogram has managed to find its way into the mainstream. Here are a few of my favorite finds to add a little initial style.
Jonathan Adler

West Elm



Moon and Lola


Swell Caroline

Signature Scalloped Percale Bedding by Garnet Hill

And last but not least....
I can not tell you how long I have lusted after a set of Leontine linens. They are the best of the best. I think they are absolutely gorgeous. Someday this will look so amazing on my bed. Someday.....

Inspiration: Bathrooms

Who doesn't love a good bathroom. It's an often overlooked room, mainly designed for functionality. But the bathroom can be as fabulous and well designed as the rest of the house. These bathrooms definitely take it to the next level.

Loving: Todd Alexander Romano

How great is this apartment? When I came across Todd Alexander Romano's website, I had no idea the fabulosity that was in store. This is a full on design crush, nay, romance.

Mirrors, velvet, and leopard.
It's like he lives in my design dreams.



I need a fur on my bed and I need it now.
This is a different apartment, but the blue lacquered walls?! Come on!

In the Navy

I've always overlooked navy blue as one of my go-to colors. Maybe it scared me a little. But I have to say, I'm getting really excited about the navy I am using in a room. Now I'm seeing it everywhere. And I kinda love it.

The headboards of twin beds are painted in navy blue color. This master bed of designer Tom Stringer brings a sense of elegance to the whole room.

Loving: Jill Rosenwald

I heard about ceramic artist Jill Rosenwald's website through a friend who said "You have to go and check it out, you lover of all things colorful and pattern-ey." She was right, I found so many things I love.

Chevron Oval Lamp
I cannot begin to describe my love for this lamp. Can you love a lamp?
 Because I'm certainly feelin' it for this. And it's navy. New fave color. 

Lg. Monogram Tray
Love the taupe and coral.  Comes in a small version too. 
Chevron Mono Mug
I'll take my morning coffee in this, please.

Maidstone Lg Bowl
So lovely. And she had me at "dishwasher safe".

She also has a rug line with Surya. This brown and cream hexagon pattern is great.

Room Crush - Black & White

Black and white is always classic, always chic. This bedroom is both those things. Old movies & martinis in bed? You betcha.
