room lust: new york loft dining/library 12 February, 2011
Still can’t get over this dining/library room from the latest issue of Interior Design by Steven Harris Architects and Rees Roberts + Partners. May be it’s an up-coming Valentines influence, but these magenta chairs seem to speak to my heart. And how perfect is the combination of library and dining, I can totally see myself sitting there with a cup of tea flipping though some art book.
I fear I’ll keep being restless until I get something if that magenta hue!

color obsession: coral and turquoise 6 February, 2011
I know that some smart professionals out there are busy predicting new color trends for the next seasons, but I’ve already selected my new color combo to obsess over. Pale coral and turquoise palette is so fresh and fun for spring/summer time. And both of the colors look fabulous against a bronze sun-kissed skin. Ladies and gentlemen, put your shades on, we are heading towards the summer time!
1. Lenox Chirp Collection; 2. Essie Nail Polish in California Coral; 3. Stephen Dweck Coral and Turquoise Ring; 4. Dwell Studio Decorative Pillow; 5. Trina Turk Turquoise/White Diamond Pillow; 6. Tibi One-Shoulder Printed Dress; 7. Hinged Jewelry Box; 8. Charles Schneider Art Glass Vase; 9. Ceramic Melon Doorknob.

swirling skirts 31 January, 2011
Nothing says carelessness more than swirling skirts in the meadows! It reminds me how badly I’m overdue on reconnecting with nature. A hike or a day at the beach (I wonder if a trip to a winery would count?)… and a big skirts to swirl in.

happy sunday 30 January, 2011
How true it is that you realize the true value of something only in comparison. I think never before had I enjoyed a weekend so much as this one, after a very busy week. With the sun pouring in through the windows, cooking and cleaning aren’t chores any more, just relaxing, almost meditative, activities under the jazz tunes.
Hope you too will find beauty in simple pleasures today.
