Deep purple velvet, tailored light grey, natural elements, dark brown wood floors and white walls...this combination leaves me speechless. Michelle James, former fashionista turned lighting designer, did a number on this majestic Brooklyn townhouse. I am just head over heels by the mix of style, its so eclectic chic.

I love the fireplace and the parisian-like molding going on in this home. I think these interior architectural elements are done so right.

When can I move in?

Every once and a while I have to take some time for myself. I get so caught up in the busy/hectic/fast paced schedule of an entrepreneuress, I forget to take time out for me. I love to get re-inspired, motived to learn to new things and concepts, nourish my creative heart and honor myself. Working from home can always be a challenge but I find that if I keep up caring for myself, it makes it so much more enjoyable.

We all know how much I love doors and photography. This emerald green beauty captured in Paris, inspires me to encourage you all to paint your doors. I have found so many incredible doors of New York, but the ones I love most have been splashed with a coat of gorgeously colored paint.

Topiaries are everything. Whether its decorating your windows or doors, having these chic little guys just make things so much more beautiful.

Going to church always gets me in the right frame of mind, listening to my heart. I cherish my time of prayer, reflection and dreaming up new visions. In that quiet time to myself, I find that I always come up with a slew of new ideas and projects that I want to take on.

Oh, how I love flying the friendly skies. Traveling is so good for the soul and the spirit. I am leaving this week for Texas again, I have a few meetings going on down there for some exciting projects. Which makes me able to spend more time at home with family, an extra bonus. Then I'm heading out to Los Angeles for a week of fun with the BlogTourLA crew. I have a few meetings planned, lunches with friends and I'll even be spinning there too. Exercise is always essential!
