The Decorista takes NYC: Aphro Chic Brooklyn Launch Party

Had a blast on Monday at the AphroChic launch party in Brooklyn at the Fabrica showroom. I loved seeing her latest collections placed perfectly all over the shop. The stylish were out in full force that evening and I was delighted to meet so many sweet and talented people. The flowers were styled by Kat Flower (I absolutely adored her) and her skills were so on point and gorgeous. It was the perfect soiree to kick off the Architectural Digest show festivities that are happening this week. Stay tuned for my many coverage on the many events I will be attending. For now check out the fabulous vignettes from the party...

Oh so pretty and perfect for spring, no?
I also found myself eyeing some pieces throughout the showroom which I absolutely adored.
I loved this perfect purple/magenta vintage velvet chair...

and this gorgeous and hot pink ribboned light fixture.

Mega swooning action!

Los Angeles Events: Gilt Groupe book party

You all know I just love a good book.

Last night, Gilt Home, CFDA, and Assouline celebrated, Rima Suqi’’s book,

“American Fashion Designers at Home” at the Palihouse Hotel in West Hollywood.

In attendance were the lovely ladies of Rue, Rebecca Orlov, apartment therapy peeps and fashionistas galore!

Such a smashing time with style setting ladies!

Today on Gilt Groupe are Assouline’s colorful, scene-stealing books on art, travel, design, and culture. See for yourself with these titles, which include Megalomania: Too Much Is Never Enough, The Bikini Book, and The Well-Lived Life. Plus snap up a rare signed copy of American Fashion Designers at Home, which offers an intimate look into the private quarters of icons such as Diane von Furstenburg, Cynthia Rowley, and Bob Mackie.
