. . . shall always adore katie lee's ultra-chic four-story west village townhouse, famously decorated by nate berkus a million years ago, in 2006; first seen in domino magazine and still an all-time favourite, the 4000 sq ft home, which includes 3/4 bedrooms, 4 baths, 4 fireplaces, an elevator, a landscaped garden, matchbooked marble detailing, and antiqued gold-leafing, is now on the market, and it is always interesting to compare how the real estate listing shots, often taken wide angles, differ from the rich, more detailed shots published in magazines; and so, a glimpse . . .

{happy monday + nate berkus}


. . . had been hoping to work the room nate berkus designed for katie lee {below}, into a an upcoming charming mix, as the second-floor den has been a long-time favourite, when happened upon a happy collective of nearly one hundred bloggers who also adore the elegance and sophistication of nate's work, always a beguiling mix of beautiful things: antique french jade glass lamps, luxurious tones and textures, gilded headboards and monogrammed linens . . . and so, a few favourite rooms to begin the week after a wonderful weekend . . .

happy monday! hope it's off to a perfect start,
xo

{happy december + smokey lavender}

{this is glamorous}, colour inspiration for the holidays. . . can hardly contain the excitement of decorating for the holidays, and every year, a new colour theme -- seafoam & silver, champagne & gold and everything all aglow, or the frostiest shades of blue mixed with shimmery shades of tinsel. . . and this year, of course, smokey lavender & the palest gold . . .

{p.s.} happy december!

Shades of mustard and goldenrod, brisk breezes and cozy fireplaces . . . it's really beginning to feel like Fall.

{the gallery effect}

Recently, P. {dashing as ever in Versace} and I had the chance to attend a gallery opening for a well-known British artist, and while we were sipping our wine and admiring the work in the bright and lovely gallery space, remembered how wonderful art looks against a clean, white background . . .
