I’m still in shock over the passing of Michael Jackson who was such a worldwide pop icon. I grew up on his music and was a true fan. When his music video world premiere prime time specials would air on television, the viewing became a family occasion. I can recall spending hours on end when I was little playing his Smooth Criminal video game on Sega Genesis. We had The Making of Thriller on VHS and my sister and would watch it over and over.

Sorry for the lack of posts! Been insanely busy with work and have been traveling a ton. I’ve also been making lots of updates to my apartment and on top of that helping my best friend prepare for her wedding which was this past Saturday!

Sorry I’ve been MIA! Work and life have been crazy! I spent 5 days in LA last week for work so I thought I’d give you a little recap of all of the design related stories from my trip…good and bad. Let’s start with one of my favorite hotels, The Chamberlain West Hollywood.

Well, that’s the deal with much of my living room furniture, which I’ve never been quite satisfied with.

Tomorrow I’ll be introducing an exciting new feature on the blog…house tours! I work in a creative industry and have lots of friends and acquaintances with fab apartments so I thought it would be fun to introduce you to some interesting creative types that you may not be familiar with while also offering an exclusive look inside their stylish homes. Be sure to check back tomorrow for the inaugural So Haute house tour!
