art + room...the many rooms of Lonny magazine

I just absolutely loved this issue of Lonny. It's always filled with such stylish spaces.
I find myself looking through the pages over and over for inspiration.
While most of us crave the decor ideas, styling tips, color schemes and gorgeous accessories...I myself, am always in admiration of the artwork. This month I am energized by the art choices.

Each work of art has such character and are statement making pieces that really resonate in my soul!
Photography, graphic prints, portraits and beautiful florals.
Oh how I just adore them all....sigh!

I find it to be extremely exciting the minute flowers enter the table area. The fragrance of blooms puts me in a blissful state almost immediately. This week when you are preparing for breakfast or even dinner throw some flowers on the table. It doesn't have to be a big bouquet, just trim some from the yard or grab a few stems at the store and just see what kind of magic happens.

sweet dining room inspiration

In complete adoration of this lovely little dining room nook in Jessica's apartment.
The beautiful + happy shade of blue on the walls is so fun. Throw in all white glossy painted furniture with bright + colorful books and accessories and you have yourself a perfectly posh little entertaining space. The blue and white ceramics always get me too! For more of her pad check her out here.

I also happen to adore the styled coffee table sitting above a gorgeous zebra rug. 
So chic, no?

studded screen, oh so green and bright + clean!

I am so addicted to screens lately and everything in this picture captures me.
I love the wallpaper, the studded chair and the mix of accesories. gorgeous!
  Something about this room has me eager to redecorate. I think what they did with the floor, the green and white stripes is just brilliant. Also, the blacks, green sofa and the fabulous recovered wing chairs are just singing such a lovely tune. Don't you agree?
I love the bright and clean look of an all white sunroom. Pops of neutral colors really warm it up and make it incredibly cozy. I think the fern plays such a big role in harmonizing the indoor/outdoor feel. This is the sort of all white room I can actually see myself working with.

get your GLAMOROUS on...

My friend Dean recently updated his fireplace area and I wanted to share with you guys because it is so chic and glamorous! It is hard to tell but the tile that is the back-splash has a beautiful metallic finish to it. All you need in your home, to amp up the glam, is to add just a bit of metallic shine. Maybe just a lamp, pillow or small table and instantly it will create a huge impact of GLAMOUR, without going overboard.


a nursery to adore...Tori Spelling's bff's "the guncles"

People magazine did a spread on the fabulous + oh so chic nursery of baby Simone, the new addition to the "guncles" from Tori and Dean. (Man, I am missing that show) I absolutely love this nursery! The hot pink walls and cute owl theme is just adorable. Who doesn't love an entire wall painted in chalkboard paint? I would have loooooved that as a kid. They make such a cute little family, no?
The fab chair + ottoman shown above are from the fab ladies at SPI...check it out here!

NY Times Room Makeover...indian sanctuary by Vicente Wolf

Check out this spare room makeover of Harrice Miller, a fab costume jeweler in Manhattan.
Now she has the perfect place to entertain her rockstar clients.
Mastermind Vicente Wolf tricked it out with a $5,000 budget. Complete with hot pink walls, a purple ceiling, gold accents and uber luxurious fabrics. I think its adorable, especially for the kind of clients she entertains.

NYC city girl style...Olatz Schnabel for House Beatiful

Thank goodness for Paloma who scanned this fabulous spread, the second I saw it I fell hard. 
I am absolutely obsessing over this glamorous bedroom right now. Hello my favorite colors purple + ever so dreamy light blue! The palm tree artwork is just bananas and that headboard...literally rocks my world. I just adore everything!
and how fabulous and chic does Olatz look? Perfection!

the Art of Living...cleverly displaying your jewels



The minute I saw this photo, I feel instantly in love.



I took a quick notice at how the lovely jewels are displayed. 
I am always looking for creative ways to hang my necklaces so they are on display + chic.
So I toiled around the blog-o-sphere for a while and checked out how other decorista + fashionista bloggers hang their necklaces.
Some fabulous ideas here ladies, take notes!
