Posh Parties: Designing A Bridal Shower
Jul 30 2014 ·0Tis the season to shower brides with love and best wishes. Yes, my head is filled with hearts and flowers and romance since my own daughter, Emily, has gotten engaged. This weekend was the icing the on the cake (hehehe) as Emily co-hosted the Bridal Shower of her dear friend Jessica at my home.
Here is a look of the event from the “behind the scenes” to the actual party, along with some of my tips for a memorable and meaningful gathering. Hopefully you will find some inspiration for your next event!
Chandeliers of Venice & Milan
May 08 2014 ·0If you know me or if you’ve been reading my blog for any length of time, you know I have a Chandelier fetish (oh, and also a shoe fetish, but that’s a different post!) I simply adore chandeliers of all shapes and sizes. In my own home, I have pendant fixtures in closets and hallways, a crystal chandelier over my dining table and a chandelier on my deck. Wait, doesn’t everyone?? In my humble opinion, everyone should!
Perhaps I love chandeliers because they are romantic, perhaps I love them because I delivered morning newspapers when I was young and I was afraid of the dark, or perhaps I love them simply because they are works of art and I am entranced by the way they sparkle and create patterns on the ceiling. While I was in Venice and Milan with BlogTour, I saw many wonderful chandeliers. Here are some beauties, old and new, that I want to share with you…
Gessi Concept Lab in Milan
Apr 16 2014 ·0The 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.
