Weekend in Review...My Favorites

I hope everyone is enjoying whats left of the weekend. I had a fun filled weekend and I am about to unwind in bed with a movie, Bad Teacher...anyone watch already?

Yesterday, Peter and I decided to head up the coast to our favorite little quiet town...Malibu. We love it there and try to go as often as we can (since it's not too far from us). We love eating at Cafe Habana (owned by Cindy Crawfords Husband Randy Gerber) and then grabbing some coffee at Starbucks or Coffee Bean and just walk around and relax (and of course do a little shopping).



I finally got to go in to the Super by Dr. Nicholas Perricone store. Bought some products to drench my skin in good ol' antioxidants.



and my "little shopping" also consisted of a full blown hunt for new sunnies. I've had my sunglasses for YEARS and they are so scratched I could barely see...but I love them.
Well lovED...now I love these :-)



I also carved a pumpkin :-) Fun, but tiring. Carved some ghosts and a witch. Will try to post the finished products another time...too tired:-)



Speaking of being tired, I made pizza (second time this weekend) with THE works. Whole wheat dough from Trader Joe's, BBQ sauce, salami, mushrooms, peppers, chicken, and like 3 different cheeses. I ate it like I hadn't eaten in days. Sooo good.

Suzani in the Bedroom

I would have to say that the Suzani is the one interior detail that would perfectly describe my style: vibrant colors, bold patterns, cozy, cultural, and looks stunning in all-white rooms. I especially love Suzani's on beds. Take a look at the photos and decide for yourself. Where would you place a Suzani?

L.A. Fashion Week: NAMI SS12 Collection

Three words...Flowy and Feminine. And for those of you that know me, you know I am ALL about flowy and feminine. NAMI designer Sarah N. Ahn (or should I say Dr. Sarah N. Ahn. Yes, she has a Ph.D from UCLA) was inspired by a recent trip to Japan where she was mesmerized by the beautiful cherry blossom trees and playful origami shapes and lines.
It was an honor to be sitting front row at her show this past Saturday at Ace gallery in L.A. (thanks to my dear friends Consuela and Val). I loved the flirtiness of the designs, the clean lines, the sheer sexiness, the soft colors and there were a few that I absolutely loved AND want for work.
Here are a few shots I took at the show. Enjoy.


















What do you think? Isn't the collection amazing?

And here we are after the show.


Congratulations on an amazing show Sarah...wishing you much success :-)

Beautiful Mustards

I have so many mustard colored clothes that I had been dying to wear and now that it's Fall, I'm all about them.

But I am also loving mustard in interiors. Get inspired for Fall.

Country Cozy

It's finally starting to look like Fall...it unexpectedly rained today and it's starting to get chilly. So it is time to get cozy. How about some cozy country interiors to kick off the "real" Fall season. I love anything country...and yes, that means music, too :-)
Enjoy!
