Martin Margiela's All-White Maison

"It is the stuff of fashion legends..." - A white mansion I could only dream of visiting. This ideal space is home to none other than the fashion house of Margiela. With a unique history as interesting as the design house itself, the mansion has a wonderful story of it's journey through restoration and becoming a home to the Margiela team. Don't let me spoil all it's secrets though...

Read the full story HERE.

Currently my favorite pieces from Margiela ~

this RING / these GLITTER HEEL BOOTS / this COTTON-POPLIN SHIRT / and these EMBELLISHED BOOTS

Miss me?

Ohhhh gosh, how I've missed blogging and all of you lovely readers!

I've been off in Spain and recently returned home so I'm catching up on e-mails and trying to get back into the flow of work and blogging again...

Meanwhile, at the airports and on airplanes - I got to catch up on some books and magazines which was actually very exciting to me since I don't make as much time for them now as I used to. Just to note that the new PORTER magazine is absolutely fabulous. Definitely worth picking up a copy.

I'll be doing a post on my travels for you all soon but in the meantime I'll leave you with an amazing interior inspiration from a chic restaurant we found in Madrid. It's basically a dream living room with cocktails forever being served in the prettiest of glasses (oh, what a life that would be!)

Ana La Santa

Madrid, España (Hotel ME)

Plaza de Santa Ana 14,

28012 Madrid.

A must place to visit for lunch or late night cocktails or simply for some great interior inspiration.

I'll write more soon, promise!

Interior: Marble Kitchen

Nothing like a beautiful marble kitchen to inspire you to cook every meal from scratch. I love cooking and currently am residing in an old Victorian home with a tiny galley kitchen where I can barely open the oven cause it'll hit some cabinets. So, clearly I spend a lot of times fawning over kitchens on Pinterest. I stumbled upon this lovely one with an incredible amount of marble. Love how it carries through to the sink, back splash, and a shelf for displaying some elegant glass pieces and all your cookbooks. Somewhat masculine but with refined feminine touches - this is kind of a dream kitchen for a couple. I'm sure both parties would be happy cooking in here.

ONE: Decorating with a dark glass vase for an elegant look. I'd add some white flowers to give some life to the kitchen. These come in various styles and sizes so adding a couple more for a nice collection to display on the shelf.

TWO: Can't have a kitchen without a wine decanter for those lovely dinner parties you'll be throwing.

THREE: My mom just recently bought this Plenty More Cookbook and I'm so tempted to 'borrow' it from her, long term....really great recipes and beautiful images to go along with. You'll want to cook every single meal from this book.

FOUR: Nothing like a great solid wood cutting board for chopping up all those fresh veggies.

FIVE: Love this cute little Hand-carved Jam Spatula.

SIX: A simple glass pitcher for serving up some delicious drinks or water and fresh lemon. Nice to mix it up and use it as a vase as well.

SEVEN: Love the idea of a fine art piece hanging in the kitchen. A simple still life to add to the most important room in the house.
