Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams were at their Signature Store in Boston last Friday night for a party to celebrate 25 years in the furniture business. What wonderful years they have been!

While touring the design shows with BlogTour Milan, I was introduced to Clever Storage US by Kesseböhmer. Clever Storage designs and manufactures high-end, innovative organization and storage pieces for the entire home. As it turned out, Clever Storage wasn’t new to me at all. I was actually quite familiar with their products but didn’t realize it because they’d been wearing a disguise…
A Poem & A Painting: Venice Canal
Apr 28 2014 · 0 comments · A Poem & A Painting, BlogTour Milan, My Paintings ·0
As you can imagine, I continue to be inspired by my trip to Italy with BlogTour & Modenus. Today’s poem is called ‘City of the Mind’. It was written by a Venetian poet by the name of Paola Bruna and taken from a book of his poems…

A Visit to the Fortuny Museum, Venice, Italy
Apr 23 2014 · 1 comment · Art Exhibits & Events, Artists, BlogTour Milan ·0
If you follow me on Twitter and Instagram, you know that as a prelude to our visit to Milan, our BlogTour group visited the beautiful and romantic city of Venice. One of my favorite surprises from BlogTourMilan was the discovery and tour of the Fortuny Museum in Venice with Christina Gregorin of Slow Venice Tours.

If a sink was sexy and elegant with lean lines and great bone structure, it would be BLANCO’s new, award-winning ATTIKA™ kitchen sink!
Boston Strong
Apr 21 2014 · 0 comments · Inspiration ·0
Today we celebrate Patriot’s Day here in Massachusetts with the 118th running of the Boston Marathon. After the tragedy that took place at last year’s race, the eyes of the world are on Boston. With heightened security and more importantly, heightened resolve, over 36,000 participants will run this year’s race. It’s been an emotional week leading up to the race and I think everyone is ready to show that the city is indeed #BostonStrong!

Gessi Concept Lab in Milan
Apr 16 2014 · 0 comments · BlogTour Milan, Design Elements ·0
The moment I stepped foot into the Gessi Concept Lab in the center of the Fashion District in Milano I felt I was in for the experience of BlogTourMilan. Gessi made a purposeful choice to locate their showroom in this area of the city. Gessi has positioned itself as fashion forward and elegant ~ a perfect fit for the Fashion District!
The Gessi Concept Lab is located in a former movie theater. The Concept Lab is actually subterranean, the excavation and renovation of the space took over two years to complete. Replete with “cascades and pools and astonishing underground vertical gardens”, the Gessi Concept Lab gives the feeling of being in a secret garden of sorts.

I feel as if my head and heart are still in Italy with my newest BFFs from BlogTour Milan! I am in sensory overload in the best possible way as I comb through my 1000+ photographs and relive and relish every moment of this incredible adventure. Here is a just a taste of what I’ll be sharing over the coming weeks…

This week while I’m in Italy for BlogTour Milan (#BlogTourMilan and@pamelacopeman on Twitter), I’m reposting some of my favorite and most popular posts from the past. I hope you enjoy!
As Spring progresses, my terrace garden is beginning to reawaken with color and blooms. I have several containers that I use year after year but I am always looking to add to my collection. This week’s Posh Picks feature some fabulous options for Outdoor Planters if you’re looking to add some interest to your outdoor space. Unlike in the past, today’s outdoor planters are constructed using materials that are much more durable and weigh much less ~ a winning combination for sure!…

Recently I found myself in the position to make one of my longtime dreams come true. As an empty nester with a bit of extra space, it was finally time to create the closet of my dreams: an accessory closet.
As a lover of all things glam and fabulous, I’ve been amassing quite a collection of jewelry and accessories over time. Great costume pieces, bejeweled and patterned shoes along with purses, belts, and hosiery make up my treasure trove.
Best of Posh Palettes: Cape Cod Seaside Home, Office, Foyer & Family Room

Continuing on with our tour of this lovely seaside home, today’s first stop is the Office. Located off the main Foyer, the Office is tucked behind French doors and is just far enough removed from the rest of the house to offer a quiet space to attend to business responsibilities.
This is the bland space that I viewed the first time I toured the house, rather sterile and not very inviting…

This week while I’m in Italy for BlogTour Milan (#BlogTourMilan and@pamelacopeman on Twitter), I’m reposting some of my favorite and most popular posts from the past. I picked this post in part because Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams is celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year ~ quite an accomplishment! I hope you enjoy!
Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams is a classic modern furniture company offering upholstery, case goods, lighting, carpets and accessories designed to make people feel comfortable. It is a jewel of a company, forward in thinking and design. Not only are they responsible for an amazing product line, the company is also involved in community advocacy and supports many grass roots and national non-profit groups.

“Life is a combination of magic and pasta”

One of the highlights of our trip to Italy was attending a cooking class at Ristorante Il Ritrovo . Chef Salvatore was a wonderful, engaging teacher and just the epitome of an Italian chef. Chef Salvatore views cooking as his art and he excels at his art!

While Easter Sunday comes late this year, it’s never too early to stock up on Easter Candy ~ the Easter Bunny can always use some help. Here are my (somewhat) Posh and definitely fun & colorful picks for Easter Candy…
Off to Italy for BlogTour Milan (& Venice)!

As I prepare to leave for BlogTourMilan and our visit to Venice with Modenus, I find myself daydreaming about the last time I was in Venice with my family ~ in 1998! Could it really be 16 years, a short haircut and a much shorter Freddy ago??
Here are some photos of beautiful, majestic Venice and some personal ones from our family album…
