Inspirations of Late

Before I go all crazy Christmas lady on you, I wanted to share some images I've seen lately that I absolutely cannot get out of my head.  I picture these images whilst choreographing a dance routine to Kylie Minogue's Can't Get You Outta My Head.  For the record, my brain is in a constant state of choreography in addition to the images of Christmas, Edward's cute ham-hock legs, puppies and pretty decor rotating around up there.  So if anyone is ever wondering why I'm so spacey sometimes, that's why.  It's a lot. 

Good God that door is beautiful!  That's what the entrance to Heaven will look like for me.

I love the opulence of all of these images.  Even the spare, white bathroom has a shot of rich, cobalt blue and gold.  The black and gold desk is going on my wishlist for things I would like to have in my lifetime.  I'd like a small one for my bedroom or a larger one for the future library we're going to put in our formal living room. 

Anyway, I just had to put those out there.  They are keeping me up at night.  How does one deal with so much prettiness in the world? (obviously if you're me, you start a blog about it and then write weird things in the white space)

I'm almost finished putting up Christmas decorations! Also, we are painting the basement and I took a peek and I'm so in love with it. I'm having them paint everything Benjamin Moore Sage Tint - trim, doors and walls.  I could eat the paint I love it so much. Kip wasn't too sure about it, but I said, "trust me, my love, it will look amazeballs." (just kidding, I don't talk like that, I'm in a weird mood)  I'll share some sneak peeks on Facebook this afternoon! Have a loverly day!

Office Inspiration from Architectural Digest

First, thank you all so much for your sweet comments here and on facebook.  Yesterday just plain sucked.  I spent half the morning crying and the other half huddled in our scary unfinished basement with my little Edward and our dog (not Cassie, that would be creepy) listening to the tornado sirens and the TV meteorologist spot tornadoes all over my neighborhood.  None of them really touched down so we ended up being fine, but the stress of it all made me go out in search of Ho-Hos when the coast was clear.

Not the best idea 

I also picked up an Architectural Digest and thoroughly enjoyed the spread featuring Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne's new L.A. home designed by Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, whom you may remember from this post.  Remember these?




Yeah, that's their house. It's pretty fab and not at all like the home they lived in when they filmed The Osbournes, but still rockstar.  (Note: The Suze LOVED The Osbournes.  In fact, our family often gathered around the TV together to watch it.  We're intellectual like that).  Anyway, the entire issue is pretty fab, but I loved Sharon Osbourne's office the most.  It just looked like me (my husband would say it's because there is a dog in it, which may be partly true).






I also loved the office in this New York City home designed by David Kleinberg.




And while not an office, I can definitely see myself conducting business from this bathroom in all it's white gold-leafed mosaic tile fanciness.



But alas, I prefer to conduct business from the biscuit, and this one from the same New York home would do just fine (minus the cat - allergies - but add snuggly dog, a laptop and small diaper-clad child and I'm set).



Did anybody watch the last Oprah? I thought I would be sad, but it was a nice ending.  I watched it last night and then I fliiped over to Oprah's OWN Oprah Winfrey Network and fell asleep to the sound of Oprah's voice telling me I be be whatever I want to be.  She's not going anywhere y'all. 

Office Inspiration

While I've been gathering ideas for the playroom, I've also had to think about a small space for me and my computer so I've been looking at some desk areas as well.  Here are some of my favorites that I've come across.
