Some rooms I love...

 Over the last few months I've been collecting some photographs of my favorite rooms while I've been looking through some of my favorite blogs. 
Take a look...

 
The MOST amazing dining room in Marcelo Lucini's apartment.
I'm obsessed with the color, and the gilt chairs are fantastic. 

Ever since my best friend painted her bedroom black, I've become enamored with black walls... especially with a huge gilt mirror.

Loving the black walls and the collection of portraits... 

Completely in love. 
Wouldn't change a thing.

Not only do I just love this as a photograph, but I love it as an actual bedroom. The draping of the fabric is a work of art in itself.

A room by Jonathan Adler... 
the chandelier, the portrait, the bust, the orange chair, and the turquoise? 
Fantastic.

...and I just saw this apartment today on one of my favorite blogs, The Neo Lifestyle
I'm completely obsessed with it. I've never seen an entire apartment and thought, "ok, I could live here without changing a thing."

Fur

Fur... something I can't get enough of...
And it all started with this painting... the most bizarre part is the height at which it is hung in the National Gallery- such that you almost gaze directly into the eyes of the head of the bear skin rug. 


 James Whistler's Symphony in White No. 1, 1862


Hollister and Porter's (from the phenomenal blog Hollister Hovey) living room... 
absolutely amazing

 

Even the set decorators for Gone With the Wind had the right idea with this polar bear rug in Scarlet's boudoir... everything about this is to die for... especially those curtains

 

This room might be my favorite... perfection

and the only thing better than lounging on one is...


...wearing one...

House Beautiful

March's House Beautiful...

I'm absolutely in love with this pink velvet armchair used by Windsor Smith... I love how the arms are are also covered in velvet... I've got to find a chair and do this to it...

  
 ... a better view of the chair from the Greystone Show House

In addition to the chair... I'm dying for these rugs by Jiun Ho for Kyle Bunting...

... when I first saw the Mirage carpet in House Beautiful I had no idea these rugs were animal hide... absolutely amazing.

Zebra

The most fabulous wallpaper by Scalamandre. 

and an amazing 1940s French settee upholstered in zebra hide. Could it get any better?

 Love the zebra rug in this room and the brass library sconces by Circa Lighting

Another amazing piece by Fornasetti

 and I love this image of a zebra rug hanging from the balcony of this New Orleans town house from one of my favorite blogs
