A little hump-day fabric love. We are enchanted by this printed linen by Mulberry Home; and it comes as a wallpaper as well!

Oh dear, as soon as I finished designing my new place, Designers Guild had to go and release this GEORGEOUS new fabric collection!
I suppose I can always redo the guest room...

I love finding inspiration in other fields of design- some of the detailing, color, and pattern combinations in this exhibition are very very trendy right now in interior design. Just look that that embroidery!

We look forward to LACMA Los Angeles County Museum of Art's "Reigning Men: Fashion in Menswear, 1715–2015,"!
Opening April 10, the exhibition will explore the history of men’s fashionable dress from the eighteenth century to the present and re-examines the all-too-frequent equation of “fashion” with “femininity.” "Beginning with the eighteenth century, the male aristocrat wore a three-piece suit conspicuous in make and style, and equally as lavish as the opulent dress of his female counterpart. The nineteenth-century “dandy” made famous a more refined brand of expensive elegance which became the hallmark of Savile Row. The mid-twentieth-century “mod” relished in the colorful and modern styles of Carnaby Street, and the twenty-first century man—in an ultra-chic “skinny suit” by day and a flowered tuxedo by night—redefines today’s concept of masculinity."

We are previewing a new furniture and lighting vendor, and I fell in love with this piece! The blend of feminine, classic, and contemporary styling makes it a great option for so many people. Where would you use it?
