Wallpaper Love: The Vase

I've adored this wallpaper from Clarence House, inspired by a David Hicks design, every since first seeing it in a small powder bathroom several years ago. Being a true fan, I've used it in my own home and also had a story written about it for the latest issue of House of Fifty. A classic pattern that is both traditional and hip at the same time, it's currently available in 16 various colorways. But, my favorites are the yellow and taupe.

Yes, a pantry, I had to read the text on this space twice to make sure I'd caught that properly!

And in a kitchen.
The idea behind lining the walls of this kitchen with wallpaper was to give the space its own distinct character,
despite being open to the family room and dining room through arched openings. It works!

Is there a wallpaper you've been wanting to use in your home?

After The Runway & Glitter, What Happens Next?

Did you catch Katie Ebner Harman's piece in the latest issue of House of Fifty? From being crowned Miss America to life on a rural farm, Katie has found that home truly is where you make it...even if it's a place you never imagined for yourself.


And what caught my eye in the story? The necklace in the below photograph...


...upon inquiring I learned it was designed by Katie's friend Raquel Castillo.

Have a fabulous weekend! Janell

Don't You Just LOVE A Great Handbag?

Well, if so you are not alone. Handbags have risen to the position of top dog when it comes to sales of fashion accessories, outpacing even shoes. We enjoyed looking at this trend in the new issue of House of Fifty...


And of course we had to include a mention of the elusive and ultimate fashion status symbol, the Birkin Bag.





But guess what? Just in case you don't have several spare thousands laying around for such a purchase, 
look at what I just came across? 

A paper version, for a fraction of the cost.
{and by that I mean just a few hundred. seriously.}


What do you think, are you ready to take one home yourself?
