Happy Chic by Jonathan Alder JCPenney

jonathan adler at jcpenney

Have you checked out Jonathan Adler’s new “Happy Chic” collection at J.C. Penney? The two mega brands have partnered to created a shop-within-a-store.  Adler’s exclusive “Happy Chic” shops  feature colorful, fresh and of course chic decor items that sell for as much as half of Adler’s higher-end line. For example, “Happy Chic” sofas at JCP are $1,850, compared with $4,000 for the signature collection. I’m assuming the Adler’s signature collection is of higher quality, but in some instances price wins out.

Check out some of my faves…

Design Crush :: Black & Spiro Interior Design

Sometimes I run across a portfolio of an interior designer that stops me in my tracks. The work of Australian designer, Anna Spiro of Black & Spiro Interior Design made me do just that. Each of her residential projects are filled with such wonderful layers, color and life. I’m sharing some of my favorite images from her newly designed website, but you will have to drop by to see all of her gorgeous portfolio. You will love!

Friday Find: West Elm Summer 2013

Okay, I know. Spring just arrived and I’m rushing you into summer months! But, just had to show you images of what West Elm has in stores now for summer. One trends you’ll see in the collection is the use of vibrant color … from watermelon to lagoon blue there is sure to be a shade you’ll love! Adding a colorful new rug, chair or throw pillow is an easy way to give your home a fresh look for summer.

I’m leading off with my favorite image. I’m in love with these gorgeous silk pillows by Pauline Reyes (below).  A native of Mexico City, Pauline’s pillows were  inspired by the vibrant colors and patterns in the Talavera pots her mom had in the house.

Oscar de la Renta & Miles Redd Launch New Tabletop Collection

Just this week fashion icon, Oscar de la Renta and interior design icon, Miles Redd  (also the creative director of Oscar de la Renta’s home lines) launched their new island-inspired tabletop collection. The fresh and colorful 70+ piece collection took direct cues from landscapes of de la Renta’s native Dominican Republic and his ready-to-wear lines. I love it all and think you will too!
