NYIGF Spring 2013 Highlights

Twice a year, the NYIGF (New York International Gift Fair) showcases the best home and lifestyle goods in the market for buyers, press and other members of the design industry. I always look forward to going to check out the latest trends and to discover amazing new products and brands.  (As a side note, The NYIGF is officially rebranding and changing it’s name to “NY NOW, the Market for Home & Lifestyle” which I think is a better fit. I always felt Gift Fair sounded a little misleading. ) Anyway – A couple of weeks ago I popped by Pier …

One of my aboslute favorite pieces of occasional furniture is the always classic, highly versatile bar cart. In recent years, the bar cart has taken on a new multipurpose use in the home. Although it’s the perfect solution for those who love to entertain but don’t have room for a full bar, you don’t have to it just for serving drinks!  You can repurpose your bar cart as a console table, styled up with a chic stack of books and a vase of pretty flowers, as additional storage for your favorite dinnerware and tabletop pieces, or even …

Style Stalking: Solange Knowles at Home

Right now I have a serious style crush on Solange Knowles and clearly I’m not the only one since Vogue recently named this signer/songwriter/DJ/fashionista (who also happens to be Beyonce’s little sister!) to its annual best dressed list for the second year in a row. I just love Solange’s bohemian sensibility and her fearlessness when it comes to  mixing prints … plus I’m a tiny bit obsessed with her super cool natural hair. Obviously, I was psyched to get a peek inside her home in a recent issue of Elle magazine which profiled the apartment she shares with her adorable …

If you’re a fan of Zara’s affordable fashions, it’s time to get excited for Zara Home which just launched in the US! While there are no brick and mortar stores just yet, you can shop all of Zara Home’s bedding, bath, tabletop, accessories and more at zarahome.com.

A couple of months ago I hinted at an exciting project that I was working on with Target and Nate Berkus and I’m excited to finally share the details! I was beyond lucky to get first dibs on pieces from Nate’s new home collection which hits Target stores and Target.com on October 21st and we shot a super fun video documenting how I incorporated these pieces into my home. Nate even paid a visit to my place to check it out for himself and afterward we ventured out to explore a few of our favorite places in the city for …
