My thought for today ...

Life is full of disappointments and today I received one. It's hard when it seems all you do is 
work so hard and in the end is disappointment!

So my thought is what to do next ...



Have you ever felt the same?

Beautiful Home - That Girl's Pad

Brand stylist Erika from Small Shop - A Brand Styling Studio does some gorgeous work.
So naturally with this talent and an eye for style and details, her home is also goregous.

Dark grey walls work so well with the white  and black dining setting
Love this combination of the desk {gorgeous} and the lucite chair, sheepskin and Missoni
Hello lamps, cool no?
Perfect styling
This is one of the collest things I've seen and it is styled amazingly well
Gallery wall in her office, where do I start with the love ...

A Beautiful Home

Sometimes simple is better!
And this home is a good example of that.
To me this home looks comfortable and very easy to live in, relax in and entertain in. 
And when I think of living in LA, this is exactly what I think of.

The home is located in Silver Lake, LA and owned by Alex and Mara {both great hair stylists by the way}

Cute entry to come home too everyday
Not usually a fan of arches, but I do like them here because they keep the feel of a 1920's Spanish style
Gorgeous dining table, compliments the space well
Hello subway tiles, oh how I miss these!
Love the central island and the stools, adds a whimsy of Paris no?
The bedroom's really simple, but I like. But I probably would place a throw on the end of the bed
Homeowners Alex and Mara

Well what's your thoughts, does simple {yet cosy} work for you?
If you'd like to read more about this home, head on over to Apartment Therapy.

Summer

As I was down in Sydney, which was cold and raining for the first days of Summer, I kind of forgot the seasons had changed!

Until I got back to Cairns where it is definitely summer at a warm 32 degrees.

So today I'm inspired by summer time ...


Enjoy your summer

 {Pop on over to The Orange Book to see all the Black Carpet arrivals & fashions}


And Saturday the store opened to the public ...

The store is so lovely. 
There are only 13 Maison's for Louis Vuitton worldwide and Sydney
is now one of them which is just so fabulous for Australia.

Welcome to the new store.
The ground floor is so spacious with it's high gold ceiling. Very sophisticated feel.

Located to the rear to the store on the ground floor is the Watches & Jewellery (OMG!!) and
the Rare and Exceptional bags.


On the first floor is a world for men. Really sophisticated but really comfortable.
Men definitely aren't forgotten in this store.

The Sydney Maison is the second LV store worldwide to have the Made To Order mens shoes

Also located on the first floor is the travel room.

Up on the the 2nd floor is the womens universe where you sill find the RTW and ladies shoes.


Next time you are in the heart of the Sydney city, you MUST pop in and have a look,
you will be warmly welcomed by all staff.

ps. it's the perfect shopping destination for christmas ;)
