linen delights

i found some cool stuff on the restoration hardware website i'd thought i share...

In the grand chateaux of 18th-century France, the porter, stationed by the entrance to admit visitors, would have sat in a chair much like this.

How would you like this in your closet? Made to atelier standards, handcrafted of papier-mâché, dressed in labeled antiqued linen.

Among the oldest designs in formal seating, the X-based bench appears in ancient Greek and Roman art and has graced staterooms and palaces, salons and inner sanctums for centuries.

shine home

my absolute favorite lighting comes from a company called shine home. my house would be filled with their lamps, if only i could afford them. for now, drooling over these pictures will have to do. do you have any favorite lighting companies?

I hadn't stopped by Anthropologie's wallpaper section in awhile. They have so many great prints to choose from now. Here are my favorities: Blooming Filigree, Woods and Coral Forest.

oscar fashion

i love that a lot actresses took a risk this year- for some it payed off, for others it didn't. my favorite this year was sarah jessica parker in a gorgeous chanel in the most lovely soft yellow and silver. i would love to get close up to see the amazing detailing. my second choice is miley cyrus for looking super elegant and beautiful and not looking like a teenager trying to wear adult clothing, and third is nicole richie for rockin' a cool 70's vibe. and last but not least, rachel mcadams. who were your favorites?
