Monogrammed China

Oh, how I absolutely adore monogrammed china! I simply cannot get enough of our monogrammed Pickard China pattern that we received for our wedding to mix with a more ornate pattern that was passed down to me from my grandmother (similar to what you see above!). Although, I am embarrassed to say that we have been married for 9 months already and I have yet to use it! It is my goal to use it at least once before our First Anniversary. How often do you use your china?

dCc Outfit to Interior: Glam

 Today for my outfit to interior series I was inspired by the stunning photo of the woman in her blush colored feathered dress. It automatically reminded me of a lovely living room that was featured in Southern Accents years ago with glamorous accents such as that beautiful chandelier.

SF Decorator Showcase: Blogger's Dream Office

The SF Decorator Showcase is always an absolute spectacle with dozens of gorgeous spaces created by talented interior designers. This year, there was one room in the Pacific Heights mansion, which truly hit close to home to me.... it was Catherine Kwong's room inspired by a "fashion blogger's office". The stunning space incorporated luxe and modern design not only through the decor but also with the covetable high fashion product that was displayed throughout the space. Oh, what a lovely and inspirational place that would be to work in everyday!

2012 MET Gala

I am in NYC for work this week, and thus I watched Vogue's live stream of the MET Gala from my hotel room bed! Oh, how I dream of a day when I can attend the event myself! I must say that while all the photos of the stunning gowns on the red carpet were amazing, it was Vogue's photos of the after-party that were truly my favorite of the evening!.

Palm Beach Perfection: J.K. Kling Associates

I have gotten the absolute pleasure to get to know the lovely and talented interior designer, Wendy Wolcott, who is a part of the fabulous mother-daughter team, J.K. Kling Associates. They have extended their exquisite taste to homes around the East Coast designing projects from Nantucket to New York City and Philadelphia to Palm Beach. 
A project they hold close to their hearts, which truly captures their understated elegance is the family's vacation home in Palm Beach. Located on Seaspray Avenue, this truly is the perfect Palm Beach abode. What I adore about this home is that while every room is sophisticated there is absolutely nothing stuffy about it. When can I move in?!
