socialite olivia palermo tribeca apartment

olivia palermo-4

i was going through my delicious bookmark and ran into this and thought i'd post it up since it's one of my favorite interiors.

this 1960's inspired one bedroom apartment is true simple elegance.

the walk in closet looks so glamorous especially with that zebra print rug. i'm not normally a fan of animal prints, but for some reason...it works.

the hermes orange tray looks great surrounded with all that neutral colors around it.

the art deco chair just adds even more sophistication to the space. and check out the lovely photo of audrey hepburn on the window sill :).

pampering time...


i had a very busy week this week and i deserve a treat for myself. so after work, to start of the weekend, i plan on getting an hour massage.

it's going to be a nice beach weather weekend. too bad i don't have time to go to the beach and enjoy this beach weather. too much other things to do. maybe next weekend i can find the time to hit the beach.

have a good, relaxing weekend :).

count down...


so i've purchase my plane tickets to see my lovely friends in SoCal...yay! i can't wait!! (is it july yet?!?)

jason wu's new york apartment...

one of the up and coming new designers, jason wu was recently featured in nymag. the first i've heard of him and i'm sure most of us first heard of him was because of his infamous inauguration dress that he design for the first lady, michelle obama. i feel in love with that dress...the color, the construction, details and simplicity of it. it wasn't too overwhelming. it was very nice and elegant.

here's a glimpse of his new york apartment...

what a great view to have.

jason wu in his kitchen.

3
i want that gray floral wallpaper. it adds character to the room.

4
the gray monochromatic look works here and by adding a pop of color in the room adds even more personality to the space.

5
one of my favorite chairs...the red lacquered wood eames chair.

6
his closet...i see he likes to be comfortable while he's working. it's all about comfort, this way you're more productive throughout the day.
