As a designer, writer, and entrepreneur, I’m obsessed with anything that is luxury, unique, or glamorous! I have a keen eye for style and love sharing all my ideas, muses, and projects with the rest of the design world! I love to travel along with Sophie, my mini Schnauzer whom I take on all my great adventures.

The Most Gorgeous Home in France – Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild
If you want to feel like you are living a dream, I know just the place to go to – Villa Ephrussi right on the French Riviera. This breathtaking home was constructed between 1905 and 1912 by a Belgian architect for a wealthy Russian-Jewish banker Baron and his wife.
The extensive mansion is just GORGEOUS and overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. It’s filled with antique furniture, old master paintings, sculptures, and a huge rare collection of porcelain. The nine gardens that surround the home each have a different theme: Florentine, Spanish, exotic, stone garden, Japanese, rose garden, and more. I love the gorgeous gardens filled with palm trees, fountains, statues, basins, water lilies, aquatic plants, and stunning cypress trees. Inside the home gets even better with ornate molding, French provincial furniture, and even some Venetian style pieces. The wall murals and painted ceilings look just as great.
Today, the villa is a registered historical monument and is open to the public since being gifted to the Academie des Beaux Arts in 1934 upon the Baroness’ death. Take a look, wouldn’t you love to live here?

Featured Home: Jacqui Getty’s Villa in the Hollywood Hills
Mismatching furniture, bold prints, antique finds, and modern accent pieces make this Hollywood beauty the perfect bohemian home. Costume designer Jacqui Getty really brought her laid-back lifestyle to life by designing her own Spanish style villa in a way that’s comfortable and practical. Something that really brings a rush of color to the home is her continued use of small pink floral arrangements – how cute!

Welcome Home: Spanish Villa on the Coast
Today I’m featuring Robert Passal, a very talented interior designer from Manhattan New York. I fell in love with this villa he designed which boasts a lot of Spanish influences and charm. If you take a look at the way he decorates you will notice he keeps a lot of his walls plain white. He brings color through accessories such as bright lamp shades, patterned carpets, and floral furniture. I love this way of designing since it’s easy to switch up and works great on rental units.
