FRIDAY'S FAB FIND



This chest of drawers.

With the cutey pie tassels?  I cannot get enough.  We found them recently and cannot wait to use them in one of our lucky clients bedrooms or living rooms.  Even in a nursery in pink or light blue? Aren't they so adorable?

I hope you guys have a great weekend!  Dee is headed out to Montauk for a wedding and I will be on Long Island house hunting with the hubs... I hope you have fun plans!

A SHOWER FOR OUR LOVELY AMANDA









Dee & I put together a baby shower for my beautiful sister, Amanda and her future little girl, Lilly this past weekend.  My Aunt & Cousin were nice enough to host it at their amazing house in Southampton.  It was a melt your heart kind of day filled with love and my favorite color-pink.

CHAIRISH INSPIRATION

Chairish Inspiration



Dee & I were thrilled to be asked to do an inspiration board collaborating with the lovely online, home boutique, Chairish.  Our inspiration was a masculine, yet fun library perfect for a newly wed couple trying to combine their aesthetic.  It is a great representation of both of our styles- traditional, yet young & modern.


Chairish is an unbelievably cool website filled with such unique pieces.

A NEW PROJECT: SMALL SPACE SAVERS




We have a lovely new project on the West Side in NYC.  It is a studio in a beautiful building that we are going to try to make homey, stylish & chic.  Our first task was to find an itty bitty console table for the main wall to create an entry.  After scouring our sources are favorite are below...

My favorite above is the faux, ostrich piece from an adorable online store called Society Social.  It's inexpensive and makes such a statement in that bold color.  If we don't go with one of the above we love the idea of a small, custom, skirted tables (clearly we're love our skirted tables- showhouse pics). 
An example of one is below.

How adorable?  I love the trim and everything about it.

Enjoy your weekend!  
My family is headed out to Southampton... will post some pics on instagram so check them out.

A FAB FIND




While shopping in the town of Southampton a few weeks ago I met a wonderful woman named Nancy Corbett.  She told me about her bespoke company, Corbett Wright.  They make beautiful, sophisticated, but fun pieces.  

This amazing shagreen console is so unique & special.  
I hope to place it in one of our clients homes in the near future.

In love with this faux ostrich vanity stool...  
Perhaps a personal purchase is needed.

All of the pieces are so beautiful and cool.

ADVENTURES IN SHOWCASING






It's been a while since we've posted, but we've had a bunch of projects, family commitments and we've just been bussssssy, busy.  Right now we are installing 2 jobs and also working on the Hampton Designer Showhouse!  It is so exciting to be a part of a show with such an amazing group of designers.  I feel blessed.  Dee and I chose to do the entry and have had some bumps along the way.  After falling in love with three pieces of furniture & selecting all of our fabrics to go with these pieces- they were sold right out from under us.  So now, with one week until final install- we are in search of new items.  We're stressed to say the least, but know it will come together in the end.

Here are some pic's of our adventure so far...

FEELING THE BLAHS





I don't know about you guys, but I am completely over this winter.  New York City has been a disaster this winter.  At first it was a winter wonderland, but now it is anything but... I walk out my door and am slammed with freezing cold air, disgusting muck on the streets or a jammed pack subway because of the weekly flurries.  Our fam is headed to Palm Beach this week and I am so looking forward to the fresh air and beautiful beaches.  This summer craving inspired my post of color today.   I love comparing a great outfit to a fabulous room.  The pops of color in both the fashion and the decor really got me out of my winter blahs and makes me look forward to the warm months ahead.I'm loving this pink and orange pallete.  

The scarf is to die for and I absolutely adore the painting, headboard and linens in the above bedroom. 

How adorable is this couple?  They look like they are on the streets of Pairs, but I would love to have a pair of those pants for Palm Beach.  They would be perfect.  Also, I love the mix of modern and traditional in the above desk nook.  The lucite desk a dainty french, painted chair is a match made in heaven. 

As you know, we love a good monogram and this bedding is killer.  The thick scallop is a modern take on traditional and I am totally in love with the toile headboard.  The bathing suit cover up and the adorable stripped buggy on the left are pretty perfect as well.

Counting down the days until my feet are in the sand...
