One of my absolute favorite ways to get inspiration for my jewelry designs, is through travel. In fact, traveling has always given me inspiration in my life. I will never forget the moment when I knew I was meant to be an interior designer. It was at an impromptu weekend getaway at a boutique hotel. The hotel was designed so fabulously and I could not get enough. Interiors and design has always been something that feeds my soul and spirit.
These days, we spend so much time on social media and I can’t help but travel vicariously. It is one of my favorite things to do on instagram, I spend a mental vacation by stalking gorgeous hotels, boutiques and restaurants around the globe. I especially love places like these pink showstoppers.
Case in point, my latest obsession Sands Hotel Spa in Indian Wells, California. A hip little town just outside of Palm Springs. When I first laid eyes on the hotel, I immediately thought of Khloe Kardashian’s home designed by Martin Lawerence Bullard. So, it came as no surprise to learn that MLB designed this hotel too. It’s very bohemian, exotic glam which is one of my favorite looks and I in love with all of the eye candy found on their instagram snaps.
This room is probably my favorite. I love the pops of soft pink against, marble, mirrored tile backsplash wall above a sitting area. The detailed ceiling wallpaper in a very Moroccan inspired pattern. I also love the black and silver Moroccan poufs, they make a perfect foot stool and gorgeous decorative accents.
I have to say, I’ve never been too big on dramatic, patterned tile but I love this black and white nook here. On my recent trip to Isla Mujeres, Mexico, I fell in love with this modern floral style pattern of tile. Tile is a great way to accent an outdoor wall. It gives it a little something extra.
Here is a peek inside of the restaurant, The Pink Cabana. Love the name, right? I also love the wallpaper. It’s a spin on the popular Martinique Wallpaper, like in the Beverly Hills Hotel, just a lighter vibe with a pale green and white color. It really accents the pink ceiling so well in addition to the pink pleated banquette for seating. I just love it.
