I happen to think 32 is young, I just can't believe I am 32!!<br />
I have a laundry list of things to do to start my 32nd year off right. First on the list is to organize my stuff, starting with my closet. I have put it off for a whole week now, any ideas/tips for tackling this tedious task? Once I get my stuff organized I can clear my head and carry on with the list. What kind of stuff do you like to do to start a new year (of life) off right? I'd love to know:)<br />

<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">So I still love brass (and gold and bronze;) but lately I'm having a thing with copper! The color of a brand new penny (though hammered copper is soooo spot on)! I am seriously wishing I had all copper pots and pans hanging above my (imaginary) kitchen island. I wanted to throw copper into my look too so I went out and bought a pair of penny loafers recently and was so disappointed to find out (post purchase) that they are not able to hold a penny, it just falls out:( I know Rose Gold is having a moment but when it comes to decor, wouldn't you say copper is awfully close?! I love the idea of using copper metal touches (i.e. hardware) as a "color" in a space, what do you think? Are you digging copper at all? What fashion/home accessory do you have that is copper? </div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Do you think it's nerdy to wear penny loafers with pennies in them? Is it too circa 19?? for your taste?! Speaking of Penny loafers...here's a little guide in case you're inspired to get a pair! That way I'm not the only nerd walking around proudly sporting penny loafers! </div><br />

I'm sorry I've been missing in action:/ I have been off on big and little adventures and just returning to reality but did not want to miss the opportunity to wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day!! Do you have any Valentine's plans? The Mister made reservations at one of my favorite restaurants so we'll be heading out in just a bit. Before I go though, I wanted to share this <a href="http://www.cupcakeproject.com/2011/02/valentines-day-cupcakes-for-two-in.html">recipe</a> I found via cupcake project for the cupcakes in the photo above! You can make just two of these in your microwave!!!! In less than 10 minutes! Why not whip up a quick little dessert?! Have you ever "baked" in your microwave? Please let me know if you try this out, I'd love to know how they turn out! </span></div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;">Hope you spend your evening in great company! </div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A lot of you probably already know about <a href="http://tonyduquette.com/biography.htm">Mr. Tony Duquette</a>, famous designer and old-Hollywood royalty, who was known for thinking that More is More. When I first graduated I obsessed over mid-century modern and minimal, clean designs and now, 5 years later I find my style has evolved a bit. While I still love modern design through and through for the past few years i have loved worldly, lived in, eclectic spaces filled with details and touches of glamour and elegance done right. So I can say me and my taste have evolved to where I have a mind open enough to fully appreciate and feel inspired by the work and style of Tony Duquette instead of dismissing it as gaudy or over-the-top. Clearly I am not the only one who is smitten! Collections inspired by Tony Duquette have been popping up everywhere for the past few years! A fabric line for <a href="http://www.jimthompson.com/press_centre/Tony_Duquette.asp">Jim Thompson</a>, a collection for <a href="http://www.kohlerinteriors.com/baker/1_1_3_0_coll_home.jsp?brand=Baker&coll_id=4631450&category=">Baker Furniture</a>, one for <a href="http://www.roubinirugs.com/td/">Roubini Rugs</a> and now...a beautiful collection for <a href="http://www.coach.com/online/handbags/-newatcoach_tonyduquette-10551-10051-5000000000000283803-en?t1Id=5000000000000000001&t2Id=5000000000000283803&tier=2&LOC=LN">Coach</a>! </div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I only learned about Mr. Duquette 3 or 4 years ago when my Jim Thompson fabric rep, Diane introduced me to a <a href="http://www.jimthompson.com/press_centre/Tony_Duquette.asp">Jim Thompson fabric line inspired by the designs of Tony Duquette</a>. My favorite still being the green colorway of Gemstone a Malachite pattern made famous by Duquette (see images above). I even got to use the blue colorway of this fabric on some bolster pillows in a model cabana I designed a while ago (see photo I had on my phone of this space and tiny piece of said bolster pillow <a href="http://instagr.am/p/k7gCR/">here</a>). I have been obsessed with Malachite ever since! I almost fell off my chair when I saw <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/look-the-new-tonight-shows-sun-86090">Jim Thompson's Golden Sunburst fabric curtains</a> on the set of the late Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. And I drooled over my keyboard when I saw these <a href="http://cocokelley.blogspot.com/2011/03/dawnridge-sferra-luncheon-to-remember.html">photos </a>taken at a luncheon hosted by Sferra at Tony Duquette's home, <a href="http://tonyduquette.com/dawnridge.htm">Dawnridge</a> (in love with that lumbar pillow!!). And I am in love with several pieces of the Selected Works of Tony Duquette Collection for Baker. Have you seen this <a href="http://www.kohlerinteriors.com/baker/1_1_5_0_coll_prod.jsp?brand=Baker&coll_id=4631450&coll3=&category=&subcategory=&prod_id=4636250&prod_num=1648&index=3&browse_key=Baker%214631450%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21&new_product_section=">chair</a> or this <a href="http://www.kohlerinteriors.com/baker/1_1_5_0_coll_prod.jsp?brand=Baker&coll_id=4631450&coll3=&category=&subcategory=&prod_id=4635750&prod_num=TDQ500&index=17&browse_key=Baker%214631450%21%21%21%21%21%21%21%21&new_product_section=">gold toad</a>?!

What do you think?! I will admit that I didn't think I was ready to obsess with orange/tangerine again so soon (remember when everything was orange everywhere a couple of years ago, often times used along with a chartreuse/lime green?) and I don't love the name (sorry! Perhaps they could have referenced something else in nature that is that color and isn't citrus;) but despite my initial reaction this lovely color is really growing on me! I think it will look lovely with muted grays, taupes and mints or blues for fashion and interiors. I will continue to explore more of Pantone's color selections with you this Spring but for now, here is Tangerine Tango! Will you be incorporating it in your wardrobe or decor this year? Were/are you kind of over "tangerine" too? If so, do you think a different point of reference/name or pairing it with more muted tones will make tangerine seem new again? What would you have called/named this color? Please comment, I'd love to know your thoughts! xo</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">Happy New Year! And just like that 2011 has passed us by! I started this blog mid-December 2010 and cannot believe it's been over a year! I am sorry I have not been posting as often as I would like, 2012 has been very busy so far. I am still coming up with my new year resolutions. So far all I have is to learn how to play tennis, learn to speak French, be more patient and commit to a life-long diet and exercise regimen. I don't know why but I'm pretty excited about 2012! I think it's going to be a good one, I hope I'm right! Are you excited about 2012 too?! What are your new year resolutions? </div>Lillyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16003177905909914246noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1653517979965619377.post-54731331897919073472011-12-29T20:25:00.001-05:002011-12-29T20:49:39.654-05:00What are you doing New Years Eve?

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Every year I get all excited about New Years Eve and every year it comes and goes without a real POW! I like the idea of a huge party where me and a couple of close friends are somewhat anonymous and have a crazy night in a beautiful house that we'll never visit again, in our stories we won't know everyone's name but our memories will be happy nonetheless. In my dreams I have a huge, beautiful house and I invite everyone over for an amazing New Years Eve gathering that consists of fancy shmancy dressed up guests, lots of shimmery New Years Eve decor, a lovely (and yummy) dinner, followed by heavy drinking and lots of people (the more people the better the party) and conversation and great music (and dancing for the dancers) and amazing, indulgent desserts followed by fireworks. I would have plenty of guest bedrooms so people would be welcome to stay the night (i.e. can drink heavily without worry) and in the morning I would whip up a big, delicious breakfast and those who want to stick around can stay for our New Years Day tradition of watching movies in our pajamas all day. What are your plans for New Years Eve? Better yet, what are your dream(y) New Years Eve plans? Do tell!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-83lR_LzNG6o/Tv0BZ9of08I/AAAAAAAAAt0/iKLNV-YZuQg/s1600/mld103915_0109_streamers_xl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />

I almost didn't make it but alas I did, who cares if it's the last day of Fall/first day of Winter, right?! I cannot believe Winter is here! I think Orchid Hush Pantone 13-3805 and Quarry Pantone 15-4305 are great colors to transition from Fall to Winter. Wintery, dusty blues always look just as great with a little glitter and a little shimmer as they do with cozy warm Fall colors, do you agree? Here they are and here's to a wonderful Winter and to a colorful 2012! Cheers!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Can you believe it? Can you believe how fast this year has passed?! We're a blink away form Christmas and New Years, I don't know where the time went. They say the older one gets the faster time passes by, it's a scary thought when you worry that half of your life might have passed:( Forgive the melancholy, I just got back from watching The Descendants, you should check it out, especially if you're in the mood for a good cry. I am in love with the headband in the photo above, I wish I could get away with wearing something like that to Thanksgiving dinner, too much? I did get to finally wear these earrings (in the photo above). I got them in NYC for a couple of bucks and absolutely love them! Have spent the weekend relaxing and spending time with family and friends. We are headed out to our friends house for homemade pizza and s'mores by the fire pit (I am so excited!!). Hope your weekend is amazing and long!! xo</span></span> </span></div>Lillyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16003177905909914246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1653517979965619377.post-63644032637368519162011-11-17T23:38:00.000-05:002011-11-17T23:38:57.226-05:00Fall 2011: Deep Teal Pantone 19-4914<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-A2c-3l0feIk/TsWu1odhOsI/AAAAAAAAAnE/CaxZ-T43-vw/s1600/Pantone-Fall-2011-C6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="74" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-A2c-3l0feIk/TsWu1odhOsI/AAAAAAAAAnE/CaxZ-T43-vw/s320/Pantone-Fall-2011-C6.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">When I studied color while in design school I learned that teal was by far the most flattering color of all. It suits any lighting, every skin tone and makes everything around it look it's best. Besides how flattering it is, deep teal is also very sophisticated and classic, isn't it? I would say it's one of my favorite colors ever! Is it one of your favorites?

</div><div style="text-align: left;">I don't know why but for the first time ever I am not that excited about Halloween:( Are you excited about Halloween this year? Are you dressing up tomorrow? I decided not to dress up this year but I am going to visit my niece and nephew tomorrow evening to take them trick or treating so it'll probably really feel like Halloween then. </div><div style="text-align: left;">So now that Halloween is almost behind us we're two shakes away from Thanksgiving! Yay! I think I will attempt to make<a href="http://www.designsponge.com/2010/09/in-the-kitchen-with-ming-thompsons-layer-cake.html"> this cake</a> this year. But before I get all excited about Thanksgiving I will be focusing a lot of my energy into my sister-in-law's Baby Shower! Am in planner mode so now it's just a matter of executing the concept. Hope you have a great Halloween!! xo</div>Lillyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16003177905909914246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1653517979965619377.post-619701093841621382011-10-28T00:26:00.000-04:002011-10-28T00:26:24.042-04:00Fall 2011: Cedar Pantone 16-0526<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qc3SpzQSy6E/Tqos6gc1q3I/AAAAAAAAAk8/Neo14cGKT2g/s1600/color_cedar.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="67" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qc3SpzQSy6E/Tqos6gc1q3I/AAAAAAAAAk8/Neo14cGKT2g/s320/color_cedar.jpg" width="320" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It's not the most exciting color but definitely an old reliable neutral. I like that it's a dusty green or gray green if you will. Cedar is perfect for fall and a nice touch of green in Pantone's color palette for Fall 2011. Do you consider this color a neutral too?
