** Update: The light fixtures are from Ro Sham Beaux - here is the link!! Thanks Everyone! So I found these light fixtures about a month ago! I love their sculptural quality and have been obsessed with anything gold lately!! Problem is??? I thought I saved the link but can't find it anywhere!! If you know where they're from, please drop me a line!! The quote below is loosely related but I loved the message!! CHOOSE TO SHINE! (it's honestly what got me through the past year - everything looks so bright now, so if you're going through a troubled time in your life, hang on, things always get better!) |

Something for everyone!
FOR THE GLAMOROUS CLASSICIST (lucite) |
While designing a custom console table for a client last night, I got to thinking how furniture very much reflects my client's life and personal style. I love not only the function but the diversity of console tables available! I've included three below and although each client I work with has his or her own unique and special style, I've selected four consoles that fall into four clear categories or defined styles I tend to work with on a daily basis!
FOR THE WARM, ECLECTIC MODERNIST |
FOR THE CASUAL TRADITIONALIST |
FOR THE NEO-TRADITIONALIST ( TRANSITIONAL STYLE) |
WHICH APPEALS TO YOU?

Picture Perfect!
I love designing children's rooms and luckily I often get to do so because so many of my client's are young families with children! I was smitten with designer Pat Healing of Healing-Barsanti's design in this month's House Beautiful! The designer truly "took off" with the palette! Amazing details! (sorry the bottom images are a bit small, I couldn't improve their quality any more!! |

currently working on..
I feel extremely fortunate to be working on so many amazing design projects right now! I just presented a powder room design to a client, here's a peek at the Ann Sacks Beau Monde glass tile we're going to use! Gorgeous isn't it??
Happy Friday to you!!

Currently loving = Purple +
It seems counter-intuitive for the season but I'm loving all warm shades of purple and lavender right now. They're rich, and mix with an array of materials, and Fall inspired colors. That silk velvet on the sofa below is just amazing!! I'm also on the hunt for the perfect soft lavender sweater. (so if you've seen one, let me know)
PURPLE + CREAM (PLUS ANYTHING AGATE) |
PURPLE + CHOCOLATE |
PURPLE + CHARCOAL |
PURPLE + BLACK |
PURPLE + YELLOW + BLACK |
ALL SHADES OF LAVENDER (WHICH IS WHAT I'M CURRENTLY WEARING ON MY TOES!) |

I want, I need..
I'm all about the concept of spending my hard earned money on one large, high quality purchase lately. I'd rather buy one fabulous pair of shoes/boots a season then four okay pair! It also cuts down on the clutter in your closet, and you all know how I feel about clutter! The Melissa back zip riding boot is currently on my hit list. Find it here!
