Hello Dolls!  After receiving so many requests for custom orders and a little push from my friends and family I am so happy and excited to share with you my NEW color collection! The new collection consists of lime, red, turquoise, hot pink and amber embellished pump dispensers. They are a perfect splash of color to add to your bath, kitchen or vanity.  If you are interested in purchasing one they will be available later on today through my Etsy Shop.

Happy Monday Dolls!

 Pumps measure 5.75 x 2.5 and hold 8.5 oz.

Custom orders are always welcome so if you see an embellishment that you would like on a different colored bottle just let me know!

Sofa Styling

Happy Friday Dolls we made through another week!!

As a designer you are ALWAYS changing things around. So, whenever I have guests over they always comment on how much fun it is to come to my home as it never looks the same. Really a lot of the time I have just switched out the pillows and some accessories. You know of my vast and ever growing pillow collection so it really isn't that big of a deal! The other thing that seems to come up is the question of how many pillows to put on a sofa and should they all match? My answer and professional opinion is this........ mix or match, use pairs or not and depending on the look you want and the style of your sofa anywhere from 2- 5 pillows. ( more if you have a sectional) In a nutshell it is personal preference. The two rules of thumb that I always go by are all pillows must have feather/down inserts to give a high end feel and mix up the shape and sizes to create interest. I have styled one sofa three different ways to give you an idea. 

Enjoy!

Adore This

I apologize Dolls for my short absence. Hope you will still stick in here with me, still dealing with family member health issues.

That said............

I love all the colorful, fun and perky pages of Adore Home Magazine and the current issue is no exception. If you are not familiar with this online shelter mag you must check it out! Ripe with fresh young talent and a passion for bright colors and pattern this Australian magazine never disappoints and is always a feast for the eyes. You know that I am a sucker for all things blue and white as well as hot pink and navy. So here are a few of my FAVE pages of their new issue but you must check out the entire spread here! 

Thank you all for your continued love and support!

Love,

This pic is from an older issue but I still love it!

Artist Jennifer Moreman

I love the work of artist Jennifer Moreman and have featured  her paintings on my blog several times. So, today I was in for a treat when I saw some of her pieces on sale on ONE KINGS LANE. I love the rhythm and color palette of her chevron paintings and love even more that she uses metallic paint that just takes the entire piece to a whole new level. Make sure to check out her entire collection here.

Enjoy and have a FAB Tuesday!

Love,
The Duchess xoxo

I think this one is my all time FAVE but too bad for me someone else bought it!

Gorgeous Goodies

 I was online searching for any gorgeous goodies that I cannot live without and stumbled upon some planters on Grandin Road sooo FAB that I just had to share them with you. Look at the graphic patterns and details on these babies I dare say they revival some other much more expensive planters by Mackenzie Childs. 

Have a FAB weekend Dolls!

Love,

P is for Purple

It has been a crazy week and I barely have time to squeeze in a post. However, I love all my followers and I do not want to disappoint you.

Purple is the color of mystery, luxury and elegance. It is also a color that can end up looking very tacky and cheap if not used with restraint and the shade chosen wisely. The bedroom is one of the most popular rooms chosen to apply this rich and regal color. Here are a few my FAVE purple Pinterest  pins. ( say that 3 times fast )

Enjoy Dolls!
Love,
The Duchess xoxo
