I was looking through Tom Dixon‘s website when I saw his Stone Candle holders. These candles would work well with a traditional decor or a modern one. I think it’s because of the material, marble.

Dolce & Gabbana had one of the outstanding collections during Milan Fashion Week. Folks are still talking about the last look. It’s funny, Dolce & Gabbana is a house I’ve appreciated for it’s tailoring, marketing, and red carpet looks, yet for some reason I never paid much attention to their RTW.

I’m loving the grown-up understated glamour of this collection. I wish I could afford one of her dresses but until then, I’ll just appreciate the design of these lovely pieces. Buon weekend! Photos: Carolina … Continue reading Weekend Inspiration – Carolina Herrera – S/S 2014
I’m dead serious. During my trip to Munich, I saw Haribo candies everywhere. Haribo is a Germany company founded in 1920 and the birthplace of Gummi Bears. I know there are fancier gummy candies in the world. They are not for me. I like my candy the same way I like my dècor, timeless. Let … Continue reading Stylish Simplicity – Haribo Gummi Bears
