I just wanted to let you know that I won't be posting for a little while because my computer is out of commission. This is very disappointing and I will try and post as soon as I can!

Have a great weekend! Xoxo -Alex

Milly's 1920's Apartment

Michelle Smith, the designer behind Milly, has a gorgeous vintage 1920's apartment that I am head over heels with. Milly's vintage style dresses with a feminine touch have been a hit for many women since 2000. Michelle's apartment is conveniently located across the street from the Christian Louboutin store which is perfect for her considering she is a shoe fanatic. They gutted the whole apartment and made it absolutely gorgeous, adorned with coffered ceilings, sparkling wallpapers, flashy colors, and a chic vintage flair. She truly has amazing style.

Nanette Lepore at Home!

Fashion designer Nanette Lepore is so talented, her clothes are feminine and sexy, I love her work. When I stumbled upon her townhouse I was so in love. I then realized that she hired my favorite designer, Jonathan Adler, to design her town home! It is filled with eye popping color, unique art, and Hollywood glamour. Nanette Lepore and Jonathan Adler in one space, no wonder it's so fabulous!

Obsession: Tory's Resort Wear!

As spring is amongst us, I dream of the warm sun on my face and the bright colors of the warmer months to come. I miss bright dresses paired with neutral wedges, shorts paired with flowing tops and layered jewelry, and all of the joy that spring and summer bring. One obsession I have is Tory Burch's Resort Wear. To-Die-For. The burst of color is so refreshing and magnificent. The vibrant tunics, sky high heels, beaded jewels, and color popping trousers are what I want to be wearing in this new year.

The Beauty of White!

When I imagine what my dream kitchen would look like, it always turns out to be white. White is a calming color to me, it makes me think of air, it is crisp and timeless. Below are some of my favorite white kitchens, these pictures show that you can do anything with a white kitchen, that's why it's so wonderful! It is a blank canvas!

Dreaming of Santorini!

Santorini is a magical and romantic Greek island in the Agean Sea. I have always dreamed of venturing there and one day I will. I am so in love with the stark white buildings adorned with royal blue tops, it is such a sight to see. The buildings sit atop towering mountains and are surrounded by an endless sea.



This bedroom reminds me of the white walls of Santorini, it gives off that natural feeling and the Mediterranean feel.





This living room shows off the rich royal blue and the crisp white of Santorini.

IKEA Takes Over Paris!

Recently IKEA has formed a new way of advertisement. They have revamped 12 subway stations and bus stations around Paris! This is something I have never seen before, they have replaced soot ridden concrete with IKEA sofa's and interesting wall decals behind. Instead of standing and waiting for your bus or train you can sit in a "living room." It is such a unique and inventive idea, I just love it!

Take a look!
