Recap

So after an interesting adventure on a good 'ole MTA cross town bus Friday afternoon, I made it to the Architectural Digest Design Home Show at Pier 94. I convinced Adam to tag along and we met up with my good friend Chelsea (check out her blog here. She is so talented!)


A section of the show was featured Dinning By Design. 45 tabletop designs were featured by the likes of Ralph Lauren Home to Benjamin Moore Paints. A silent auction was held on Thursday night and the proceeds benefited the DIFFA (Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS).

Above is a picture of the Kravet table. (Sorry the picture is so dark).

Fancy. Fancy. I loved looking at all of the beautiful rugs and carpets.

Cute Chelsea! Hey, we were just dreaming of lounging on a beach somewhere!

There were all kinds of vendors. Stone, hardware, lighting, etc...

But, I must say that I was blown away by

DesignRed. I had never see their work before and found it to be absolutely brilliant.

DesignRed is a decorative painting firm and the pictures below speak for themselves.

The attention to detail and the uniqueness of their painting are simply amazing.

Please check out their site.

The Spring calender is quickly filling up and there are many more fun events ahead. I will be sure to share pictures.

Happy Tuesday!

Ralph Lauren Paint

I was in Beverly Hills two weeks ago for work. I was working one block off Rodeo Drive, so I slipped away for a minute to browse the Ralph Lauren Home store. Have you ever seen one? Divine. Simply put. I could easily get lost in there for hours!

This man just oozes sophistication.

We have been on the go since we arrived here, but I made it a point this weekend to paint our apartment. Adam was a great sport! I must say, paint makes all the difference in the world. I can't wait to share before and after pics of our place. Still in the works...so you will just have to wait! :)

If you are looking to paint, I highly recommend Ralph Lauren paints. The color palette is fantastic and I have never been disappointed with the finished product. I love this color above. It is dark, but at the same time so rich and inviting.



Do you remember these chairs? Eddie Ross used Ralph's Seawashed Blue to makeover these thrift store finds. I didn't even realize it until after I had painted that I had used the same color on one of my walls.

We have 11 foot ceilings, so I wasn't about to go all out with the brush. So, we just painted the back wall that you see when you walk in the apartment. The wall has two huge windows, which overlook a park and some historic buildings with metal roofs that have aged that brilliant greenish color. So, now our wall is just an extension of our outside view.

I love it!!
