Selina Lake updates
Posted on Tue, 20 Jan 2009 by KiM
One of my favourite books of all time is stylist Selina Lake’s Bazaar Style. It is so inspirational and I’ve flipped through it AT LEAST a dozen times. If you don’t own it, do yourself a favour and as soon as you see the photos below from her updated portfolio on her website, go out and buy it. Treat yourself. I dare ya. Thanks Selina for the heads up. FABULOUS, as usual.
Schoos Design
Posted on Wed, 14 Jan 2009 by KiM
Based in West Hollywood, California, Schoos Design is where the stars go to get hooked up with incredibly decorated homes. Thomas Schoos’ first residential project was the home of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett (!!!). I am so in awe of their portfolio – it’s glamourous, bold and everything is oversized, which I LOVE because it makes such a huge visual impact. There are oversized chairs, couches, shell mirrors, pendants, artwork….
WE MADE IT!!!

OMFG! Jo and I are VERY honoured to be among the top 8 blogs nominated for Apartment Therapy’s The Homies. Not only are we honoured but also surprised at how far we’ve come in 2 years. Thanks so much for the nominations everyone, and though we don’t usually like plugging ourselves I’ll make an exception for this. We’d LUV your votes so if you think we are worthy, here is where you can vote. We’re seriously just stoked to be among the list of such amazing bloggers. It’s a great way to start the new year. So on behalf of myself and Jo, have a rockin’ New Years everyone!!
(Below was supposed to be a photo of me with the cats but that was too freaking difficult to manage by myself – getting 6 cats in a photo is tough enough. Of course, I had to bribe them with some salmon which is why they are all looking at the floor).
My favourite kitchens of ’08
Posted on Wed, 31 Dec 2008 by KiM
I will be posting over the next few days my favourite photos of the year, by room type. The dining rooms from this year (and by this year I mean that I’ve saved on Flickr after Jan 1 ’08) that have inspired me are below.
Reasons I love these: a car on the wall, lotsa white, concrete, expanse of countertop, soaring ceiling, floor to ceiling subway tile, chandelier in the kitchen, modern and sleek, industrial, open storage, furniture for cabinets, rustic (with no uppers), and one that I can actually enjoy.

Reasons I love these: anything that looks Scandinavian, bold grouping of photography, bold colours, crystal chandelier over a harvest table, that built-in banquette is to DIE FOR, moody grey walls and floors (again), book storage, eclectic vibe, mismatched chairs…
