Angelina in Paris

Missing Paris.
Strolling along the streets of Paris, it draws you in.

The awning the color of rich chocolate, the diamond shaped insignia in the marbled tile entrance way announces "ANGELINA".

A peak in the window provides a glimpse of the glorious cafe' and chocolate shop. Could you have resisted? The food, the aromas and the decor did not disappoint. Enjoy the view from my gold gilded chocolate brown leather chair...

Lovely Weekend

A relaxing weekend is what I wish for everyone! Rest on a French day bed, your book illuminated by a vintage chandelier and sink into the large down pillow. I could spend the entire day here , most of it daydreaming....
Happy Mother's Day!

Martha's Vineyard

Beachy, yet warm and inviting for all seasons! Went to Martha’s Vineyard last weekend with Kara where not only was it a great time but I stayed in her house that I was fortunate to decorate! Wonderful hospitality, as always, wish I was there right now!!.

Aqua colored walls reflect the cool ocean while wood tones warm the space. One large room satisfies dining and leisure. After a day at the beach or one of Kara’s gourmet meals the comfy sectional beckons!





"My Bedroom" (sorry Dana Evan) is yellow and peach, am I not lucky?
Kara found and purchased on island a CD of the band, Nouvell Vague, whose soothing song she heard on a blog. Unlike that song, this CD contained dramatic songs like “Bella Lugosi Died” and “The Human Fly” that sound like the names imply. Made for fun listening on the ride home. thanks~ buzz buzz buzz….

*added the "Human Fly" song to the bottom of my playlist*
