Inspiring Work with Isabel Quiroga

Isabel Quiroga work space 1

I am always collecting photos of things that inspire me.  This isn’t limited to the fashion realm, but is encompasses anything that strikes my fancy. Lately, I have been obsessed with workspaces.  When we moved to Chicago I vowed to have a productive workspace up and running.  After all, I do work from home and… [Read More...]

I have a fetish.  For closets.  Love them.  Any opportunity to look in a beautifully designed closet and I am there.  I would give up a kidney for a giant closet.  Okay. That isn’t truth.  But, I really do love them!! So, when I discovered these photos from Erin Fetherston’s closet I was a very… [Read More...]

Runway To Room: Raf Simons for Jil Sander

00060m

I tried desperately to avoid writing about Raf Simons final collection for Jil Sander.   Truly I did.  I mean, it has been written about everywhere.  And why not?  It is practically flawless. Finally I couldn’t take it any more.  I decided that I would have to feature a Jil Sander F/W 2012 look.  But, I… [Read More...]

Our living room is constantly transforming.  Details that make it more personal. I would describe it as contemporary organic (—or something equally sophisticated).  Here is a look at some of the elements… This bowl served as the reference for the living/dining room’s color scheme.

Sleep Deprived

I have been suffering from a pretty severe bout of insomnia.  Case and point: it is 4:30 am as I type this.  And I feel awful. Have you been here before?  When all you want to do is crawl into bed and fall asleep, but sleep is proving elusive?  That’s me.  Big time.  I just… [Read More...]

Evening-Ralph-Lauren-Hosted-Oprah-Winfrey

Back by popular demand (who doesn’t want to say that?), it is Runway To Room!  I know, you are squealing with delight (I haven’t stopped squealing since I began typing this).  And who can blame you/me?

There is still time (Do you like the pun?!) to enter the ToyWatch USA Giveaway!   I can’t believe London Fashion Week came and went without me covering any of it.  Bad fashion blogger, bad!
