Fleur Collection Candles


There are certain candles that catch my attention.   Fleur Collection is now my all time favorite.  They are quietly elegant and the fragrances are beautiful.  Featuring scents of Cashmere, Bois,  Figue, Modern Holiday and Camellia which is my personal favorite.  



I recently had a party for 50 and these candles were the perfect party favor.

Tom Scheerer Decorates

Last night was a book signing for Tom Scheerer's new design book, Tom Scheerer Decorates at the Quadrille Showroom in NYC hosted by House Beautiful.
I adore his style and so it seems everyone else does too.  This book is a joy to read and beautifully written by Mimi Read who did a great story on a project we worked on in Los Angeles for Coastal Living Magazine!

It was so much fun to meet Tom and visit with the House Beautiful team to celebrate his new book!

Run dont walk to get yourself a copy...

Tory Burch fabric inspiration for interior design

I stumbled across the Tory Burch blog while I was catching up on Fashion Week Spring 2014.  I thought the Behind The Scenes piece on getting ready for the show tomorrow was so incredibly beautiful. The details on the fabrics look more like jewelry than they do clothing. 

Being an interior designer I am always looking for inspiration for new projects.  The chicness and utter beauty of these images has my mind whirling at the possibilities!




Cream, green and the faintest shade of blue...



These delicate yet fun patterns are perfect-pillows possibly!


Adore these


Jewel encrusted anything!!

Nautical Love

With July coming to a close, the summer feels like it is already over! But luckily, in a few weeks I am heading to Nantucket, my all time favorite place!  My family and I have been going every summer now for the past 16 years and it is always the highlight of all of our summers.  As I'm counting down the days waiting to be on island, I can just dream about being there and what makes it so great, all things nautical.  There is nothing better in my opinion than a yard full of hydrangeas, nautical stripes throughout a house, and fun accents of coral and anchors.  These qualities are what make every single inch of Nantucket so magical! 

Main Street in Nantucket aka cozy town! Always have loved this picture. 

Coral is such a great accessory in any room!

Brant Point Lighthouse in Nantucket.  

Anchor doorknob! Wow! 

What a chic bar.  

Steps in Nantucket. 

Chunky stripes make any house have that great nautical feel. 

The Lobster Trap in Nantucket. One of my favorites!  

Classic Nantucket style homes.  These make me crazy happy! 

A rope staircase makes any house feel beachy and cozy! I did these steps in my daughters bedroom.  

Cozy cozy stripes 

So New England, great sailboat painting!

Classic Americana

As the 4th of July approaches I fall more in love with where I live every year.  In my opinion, nothing beats the East Coast on the 4th.  From Lobster Bakes to fireworks on the water, it's a truly idyllic time around here.  All of these fabulous celebrations though, revolve around the amazing architecture and classic Americana style of decorating.  Some homes here date back to the 1700's and that amazing history is part of my love for the interior design. 

Doesn't get better than this!



 Cannot get enough of dutch doors! 




 Ah Nantucket! My all time favorite place...dreamy
