Okay, so New York city is absolutely blowing me away. I have been buzzing around this city like crazy. I am most fascinated by the beautiful art galleries... everywhere! This photo totally inspired my day yesterday of hunting this city for the best artwork finds for clients this week. All the artwork in the city is intoxicating!

style-icious Sunday {eclectic panache}

 There is something about these NYC streets and the fashion that saturates them. Each outfit is so very different than the next. It inspires me in that I remember not everything has to be so "put-together". Eclectic style is every bit as stylish as the next, and probably a lot more inspiring than others. 
Today I just want to luxuriate in the rooms that are inspired by this kind of look. Curious, colorful and filled with mixings of the most fabulous of textiles (suzanis + furs + plush velvets, oh my).

the decorista Trend Spotting: brass deer


These lovely brass (and quite large) deer figurines are all the rage and I have been dying for one.
My obsession started a while back when I found a brass rams head dining table. Since then I have been coveting a brass deer and found out that my dad has one that he is sending me and I cannot wait to get my hands on that little angel. I love it.



P.S. I AM LOVING NY.
I'm getting all settled in to my adorable + cozy apartment...shopping around the cutest little neighborhoods and playing around with the pup in the snow. Too much fun.

bliss in the kitch' {striped walls for the win}

Oh my goodness. This gray and white striped kitchen is adorable...I'm in love. It has that perfect breakfast nook quality that I love. Notice the bottles looking organized in that basket on the bottom white shelf, its perfection! The bright stripes absolutely make the space. I also adore the mis-matched chairs too. Such a cute little kitch'!

What I love about Rue Issue 3

I truly love Virgin America for the fact that I can browse the internet on the airplane. I've had so much time to devour the latest issue of Rue and I love it! My favorite spread...
Nicole Cohen's fabulous NYC apartment. So incredibly gorgeous, I am obsessed! 
Her blog, sketch42, has always been one of my favorites. She is fab + a longtime blogging friend of mine...so I could love it most because I am just a teensy bit proud of her. (and jealous!)

I also am in loving these other lovely images, which I keep going back to...

The Decorista TV: an e-decorating solution


I had to share this genius idea with you all. One of my new e-decorating clients made this adorable video  to show me, in detail, her Brooklyn apartment. How cute is she?
I love this video idea and hoping that for all my future projects we can incorporate a video like this.





So far with Becky, we have decided that we are going to paint her entire apartment a very light shade of blue, so it will be like a beautiful jewel box in the heart of Brooklyn. Benjamin Moore Antiguan Sky is one of my all time favorite shades of blue. Just wait till you guys see the final product, It is sure to be fantastic. I promise to post pics soon. 


why I absolutely adore blue on the walls...

who doesn't adore Rita Konig?

She has always been a favorite of mine. I've always loved her home decor and writing skills. Her mom is Nina Campbell, a fabulously famous decorator. She's adorable too! 
Check out Rita in the premiere issue of matchbook! It came out today and it's too cute for words.

the industrial chic look...Roman +Williams

Roman + Williams just really know how to pull this look together don't they?
While the overall look may be a tad too much industrial to me, there are bits and pieces of the style that I can pull from. It's just such inspirational work, how can you not admire?

Home Tour: Kristin Gallipolli's sophisticated retro

The minute I laid eyes on this stylish abode I knew I had to share. It's a little over the top playful + fun, but there is something different about it that really caught my eye. The orange and pink together creates a more modern vibe as opposed to a girlie one which is hard to pull off. Lots of exotic, modern and vintage pieces are paired together to create an unexpected twist on the 60's retro look. Maybe its going to for a sophisticated retro vibe, as that gorgeous lucite coffee table is completely stunning and brings the decor up a few notches. 
Its a fun and whimsical space, that's why I like it. Oh, and of course the punches of color...you guys know how I feel about the colorful couch thing.
