Geodes, so hot right now.

My favorite interior design trend right now are geodes, whether as book ends or decorative objects. I think I need to get some for my house...

Trad Home

I love when I randomly visit a online mag and discover a new issue is published. I went to Lonny's site and saw the awesome Trad Home. It has some great inspiration, here are some of my favorite pieces.

 Jonathan Adler Nixon Table

 Neiman Marcus Lotus Pendants

 Bunny Williams Hourglass Table

Antiqued Peacock Mirror

I think I'm having a gold moment...

Visit Lonny here.

Oudry

I love these paintings by French artist Jean-Baptiste Oudry.

  This would be amazing in a den/office with walnut paneling.

globes

 

This is one of the more fabulous displays of collections I've seen.
Also this idea for a headboard is gorgeous. A way of bringing nature to urban spaces.

pastels

 With spring on the horizon, I want to paint all of my walls pastel.

Love the combination of soft walls and light floors.

How gorgeous is this Chateau? I was lucky enough to visit once when I was in Paris, and can't wait to go back someday.

life sized photos

I came across a website called Surface View on a blog and was amazed at the scale they were offering images (up to six feet in some cases). They have quite an extensive classical art collection, but I love all of their Slim Aarons photos. Plus you can customize the size of the print to fit whichever space you need art for, and can choose from a mural or a print (on canvas or as a poster) or make it into window blinds. I would probably pick one of the following, then I could always pretend to be on vacation...

Elle Decor Showhouse

I visited the Elle Decor Showhouse the past weekend, and here are some highlights:

 Of course I loved the library, but the combination of vintage books with objets d'arte was visually arresting.

 Plus the library had this hidden bar. tres chic.

 I love these art pieces, quirky, a little creepy, but fantastic, especially with the addition of the lights.

This picture is awesome.

glorious rainy Sunday

The best kind of rain, of course, is a cozy rain. This is the kind the anonymous medieval poet makes me remember, the rain that falls on a day when you'd just as soon stay in bed a little longer, write letters or read a good book by the fire, take early tea with hot scones and jam and look out the streaked window with complacency. - Susan Allen Toth

Glaser Home

I'm usually not a fan of so much wood used in interiors, but in combination with lots of windows the look is light and airy.

I think these scans are from Vanity Fair, but if anyone knows for sure...

pink bedrooms

I love these girly pink bedrooms. The bed linens in the last image are especially fantastic. All images from Domino magazine.

if only i could afford resto...

I will never be able to afford anything from Restoration Hardware, but there are quite a few pieces from their Fall Collection that I am loving.

And the piece de resistance:
