As Luck Would Have It...

2011 is the YEAR OF THE RABBIT ~ a lucky sign;  a time for introspection, catching your breath, "getting your house in order"

The Chinese calendar starts the new year on the 2nd moon after the winter solstice.  It has been this way for  more the 2,000 years.  Twelve animals are represented and then repeated.
I was born in the year of the ox, which explains a lot!

Shaggy Chic

After yesterday's post, I could not stop thinking about sheepskin and curly mongolian lamb.  Most of us will never own a Lalanne sheep but we can easily incorporate the look/feel of real/faux sheepskin  into our lives.
 These fur vests are all over the runway; but they makes SOME of US look fat.

A single statement piece in the home could just be the thing to make a room sing.

 The J.J. Chair by Antonio Citterio is glamorously comfortable and sophisticatedly styled.

This chair is calling my name!  Jean Michael Frank's Cube Chair is being reintroduced for Hermes as part of a new home line, Maison Hermes, some time in 2011.  Couldn't you just melt into that?

Still too much?  You can't go wrong with a pouf. They work with any style and can be found at any price point.

Still not convinced?  I always say,"When in doubt make a pillow."

And that is exactly what I did for a client's office.
