According to Instagram, Greece is one of the most popular places for travel this summer. After seeing this family compound that Isabel López-Quesada designed with architect Nikos Moustroufis designed on the island of Spetses, it’s easy to see why. The base of blue floor and white walls perfectly complements the color of the water and buildings of […]
I was reading something online that declared the last Monday in January to be the most depressing day of the year. It seemed a little silly until I woke up to discover four foot snow drifts and slush piles on every corner. If you are feeling blue, here are some images that might actually cheer […]
It’s Monday and it’s snowing again. A perfect day for a blue post. Gianvito Rossi Pumps Lauren Santo Domingo La Perla Lace Bra
Sometimes I feel like all European apartments are white so I was happy to see this Milan apartment filled with beautiful blue walls. It was featured in this weekend’s T magazine and is the home of Italian writer Benedetta Cibrario. Besides blue, it’s filled with gilt frames, multiple patterns, and pops of red. It’s the […]
I have a love/hate relationship with navy blue. I don’t buy it because I think I won’t wear it since it clashes with black. But I don’t wear black that often so that’s a silly reason especially since you can mix navy and black as you can see here. Cartier Love Bracelets Chloe Navy and […]

I LOVE this color block outfit (it’s Prada) that Amanda Seyfried was wearing that was posted on Who What Wear today. It’s freezing again in New York and this ensemble is getting me even more excited for spring. It also reminds me of a few other things I’ve seen recently. I have been stalking these […]
I don’t know what I love more about this kitchen designed by Københavns Møbelsnedkeri, the blue color, the herringbone floors, or the miles of display cabinets. To quote Rachel Zoe, “I die.” Bon Weekend! Photos by Line Thit Klein
It’s grey and rainy in New York today. What better time to post the beautiful sunroom from the Hamptons Designer Show House. The room is a pass through between the great room and the kitchen but designer Kate Singer did a great job with the awkward space. I especially love the gallery wall of art […]
I met Jennifer McConnell, the Vice President of Design for Pearson Furniture on one of my first trips to High Point. I loved her work in their showroom so it was a delightful surprise to see that she designed a room in the Hamptons Designer Show House. The fabric is also from Pearson and I […]
I love installations and styling but I’m sure that preparing for High Point Market twice a year might make me change my tune. Hickory Chair creative director Ron Fiore and his team take on the monumental task of styling the entire showroom each spring and fall and always do an amazing job. Hickory Chair was […]
Even though red seems to be grabbing all the headlines lately, I’ve been noticing a lot of blue on and off the runway and in the home. I absolutely love Todd Alexander Romano‘s new blue apartment that was featured in the February issue of Architectural Digest with its pops of citron, chartreuse and red. I also noticed these […]
I’ve been busy working on a new project and I thought you might enjoy taking a look at the inspiration images for the blue media room. I don’t think it’s any surprise that most of them are from the master of lacquer, Miles Redd. Enjoy! Ashley Whittaker Amanda Nisbet Todd Romano Nate Berkus and Anne […]
One of my readers mentioned magazines as something that makes them happy and I have to agree! Right now, the March 2010 cover of ELLE DECOR is making me very happy! Those blue walls are gorgeous and I can’t wait to get the issue see the rest! UPDATE: I was overjoyed with excitement when I […]
I happened to pick up the December issue of Spanish AD this week and was left swooning over the London apartment of designer David Collins. Of course, I can’t read a word of Spanish so I can’t help you with any of the details but I think the photos speak for themselves. Mr. Collins has […]
It was the photos of the blue entry decorated for Christmas in the December 2009 issue of Elle Decor that had me thinking back to Aerin Lauder’s blue Christmas. I love blue and white porcelain any time of year but I think it looks especially festive at the holidays. Miles Redd, who can do not […]
One of the most famous holiday spreads has to be Aerin Lauder’s East Hampton house from the December 2007 issue of House & Garden magazine. I have been seeing a lot of blue backdrops to holiday decorations this year and it had me thinking about Lauder’s blue dining room. The table was beautifully set for […]
