Friday Favorite: RH Contemporary Art

By: Unknown on 1/31/2014

The brand we know I love reached a whole new level of sophistication in 2013. You may already be aware, the contemporary decor company renovated a gorgeous, six-story, fixer-upper in Chelsea, New York to house RH Contemporary Art. The gallery offers an artist residence program and has featured emerging artists such as: Samantha Thomas, Natasha Wheat, Peter Demos, Toby Christian, and Nathan Baker. But wait, it gets better....the company is planning to open an L.A. space this year! No need to guess who will be front and center of that opening.... ME!!!

Stocking Stuffers for Her: It's the Little Things

By: Unknown on 12/16/2013

I've got some Monday Motivation for you.... to finish that Christmas shopping of course! From fashion to home, jewelry and beauty, here are some ideas to fill HER stocking! We all love mini surprises so I encourage you to get creative and compliment her personality with gifts she will oh-so-love and use. Sometimes less is more, and it's the little things that count!! Enjoy.

 Dazzle her with these fun diamond magnets!

Bring those far away scents home with Astier de Villatte's scented candles

Michael Kors fingerless gloves for the lady who's always on her iPad. Love!

Look for the blue box! Yes, this Tiffany's cuff is versatile enough to wear everyday and screams elegant.

I've been obsessed with Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 since the dead of winter hit. Anyone can appreciate this gift set. 

Take a cue from my Tech the Halls gift guide, these cozy UGG earmuff's will come in handy during a snowy getaway! Yes, please.

For the weekend jet setter, this iPad folio by Kate Spade is adorable.

 Illustration Now! Fashion from Taschen.  I'm obsessed!

You can't go wrong with a gift card to her favorite workout studio. One of my favorites, Soul Cycle!!!

Think outside of the box, maybe something for the home. A set of party coasters would be a cool touch for that hostess with the mostest!

I love the uniqueness of this Lululemon neck warmer <3

A Clarisonic will be loved by any beauty buff!

Another great grab for the world traveler! This Amika hair styling set will save space in her suitcase. (Available at Birchbox)

This Chanel dual sided mirror is a must for touchups and every girl's handbag.

How about a little humor?  This penguin corkscrew is adorable.

Whoa, move over Starbucks! Who doesn't want a mini Expresso maker? (from our Friday Favorite, Restoration Hardware)

And let's just throw a wildcard (literally!) in here with this Luxe Faux Fur wine bag also available at RH. I just love it!

And NEVER underestimate the power of a day at the spa or back massage! Mama loves her pampering and R&R. :)

Friday Favorite: Restoration Hardware Baby & Child

By: Unknown on 12/13/2013

Merry Christmas, Grayson! I finally did it, Grayson's bedroom is now a more fitting "big boy" (Say it isn't so!) space. The culprit, bunk beds. We have officially moved into the age of sleepovers. A few weeks ago, my little man happily accompanied me to find the perfect bunk beds and big boy furniture. With only 4 locations nationwide, one happens to be here in Los Angeles. I'm calling it Lucky because the second we entered Restoration Hardware Baby and Child it was love at first sight! Seriously, love might be an understatement. I'm completely obsessed with Restoration's new Children's interior collections and my 7 year old went bananas! The store itself was like walking into a sophisticated, whimsical and very realistic fairytale scene you would only imagine in books and films. For girls, their princess thrones, crystal chandeliers and sweet shabby throw blankets are to die for! And for your little man the design elements are exquisite, and the creative aesthetics were exactly what I was looking for to create a one-of-a-kind ambiance for Grayson's room. It is almost complete and I'm thinking, "I know it is just right for my mini modern gentleman!"
