a girl after my own heart...

i recently stumbled upon an interview w/ palmer weiss for the SF Gate and just fell in love w/ her list of favorites...leontine linens- perfection when it comes to luxury bedding (just a little out of my price range at the moment), a lucite and brass ram lamp she found for next to nothing at an antique store (can you get better than mid century lucite?), and raoul fabrics- their beautiful hand blocked patterns on linen make them one of my fav's.....

i also loved reading her tips/ cheat sheet: shirted console tables to hide clutter (i have been in love w/ this idea since i saw her spread in domino), shopping local (something i want to strive harder to do), and steering away from themed kids rooms (they get dated quickly)... palmer, you have great taste!! catch the whole article here.

Motorbike wallpaper

wonder....

if that girl is contemplating whether she should take a nice, long ride on her spiffy pink bike or finally get around to unpacking those vintage hatboxes that are piling up in the LR.....oh, decisions.

Desk Nook

Who doesn't love a little nookie...okay now get your minds out of the gutter! I meant a nook, as in a small area devoted to moi, designed with all the things I love, a la fabulous! I was finished upholstering my new chair, and I couldn't find a place for it, so what so you do when you have a fabulous chair dressed in stunning trellis fabric you ask? why you find a space for it! and that is how my little desk nook came to be.
