Memory lane...

Take a trip down memory lane and travel back to the fourth issue of Lonny.  The repetitive pattern of ostriches gracefully speckled across living room walls and elegant photography of shiny gold heels have been lingering in my mind.  To continue this trip down memory lane, take a trip over to this post {Two Dimensional Ostriches} about Michelle Adam's insanely glamorous apartment.

Enjoy this glimpse of my other words at EcoSalon this week {take a look, maybe even leave a comment or rate my words}.
Relish in these color tips and infuse a little personality into your space with these four simple rules {Non-Invasive Surgery}.  Or continue to swoon for luscious tufted upholstery with this gorgeous gathering of perfect tufts {The Versatile Tuft}.  Explore the 'Handpicked' series with the lovely Rachel of eTTa designs {Handpicked: eTTa designs}.

Feminine delicates...

This space {the London loft of Rachel Ashwell} is utterly feminine, delicate, and just one lovely glimpse from the latest issue of Lonny.

The rumpled bed, especially, makes me swoon because of this previous post {from February 24, 2010}.

The allure of an unmade bed...

Rachel Ashwell was recently featured in the UK edition of Elle Decor. Ashwell has created a realm of Shabby Chic products, books, and stores; her most recent book, Shabby Chic Interiors, is brimming with feminine inspiration.

Elle Decor featured this bedroom as the epitome of guest bedrooms - polished, comfortable, charismatic, and welcoming. Ashwell advocates for the 'unmade' bed, proposing the worth of a bed is revealed when rumpled and still refined. This particular philosophy is intriguing, mainly because I never make my bed.

Lonny, Lonny, Lonny...

The new Lonny issue does not disappoint.  I am accustomed to leaving Lonny with hundreds of new resources, fistfuls of inspiration, and a visual {or several} worth sharing; today is no different.  The April/May issue of Lonny is especially dear to my heart because the pages are brimming with sustainable products {fitting for the first annual green issue}. 

Just a peak from the pages...

The amazing brick floors in this kitchen reaffirm my love for exposed, aged brick.

Pairing this {modern take on old charm} chair with this {worn and tarnished} stool is delectable.
