Home of a glamourai

Posted on Thu, 3 Nov 2011 by KiM

A couple of weeks ago I blogged a little peek into the home of fashion bloggers Jane and Judy Aldridge. Today I thought I’d share a little bit of Kelly Framel’s home. Her fashion blog the glamourai is one of my daily must-reads. Kelly’s NYC apartment is fabulous decked out in my favourite colours (black, white, brass and silver) with a glam Hollywood Regency vibe. And check out her adorable pooch!

Paul Raeside update

Posted on Thu, 3 Nov 2011 by KiM

I have been a huge fan of Paul Raeside‘s photography for quite some time (Jo is as well) and always find his work so intriguing. Perfect compositions and OMG how he makes the natural light work in his favour so beautifully. On a side note, when I came across these photos I immediately sent the photo above to my husband, and told him we need to tile something in the new house with those beautiful black matte tiles.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I’m packing my bags. I’m home invading. You’ll never get me out. This bijou bluestone worker’s cottage in Fitzroy, Melbourne is just about perfect. By one of Australia’s leading design firms Hecker Guthrie.
