So warm and inviting!

One of my newest favourite designers!! His designs are so layered and interesting. I am amazed by the way he creates such comfortable, yet beautiful rooms. Most of the designs I have seen by him have an exotic edge. The background for most of his rooms is the neutral wall colour, and then layers of pattern, fabric, texture and shapes. What a great eye he has for putting pieces together!

Many designers talk about using something unexpected in a room!!
How about this for unexpected!!

Ralph Lauren Interiors

I found this image on Pinterest, from Ralph Lauren Home, 'Desert Modern.' I think it's my new favorite pin! The art/photo against the plaster wall is absolutely stunning, and someone please tell me what kind of plant that is... I need one! I love the textures, pattern and colour in this photo.. it's just perfect... Here are a few other Ralph Lauren images I pinned and a few from his collection online.

So dramatic!

Luxurious.

Great wallpaper for a BWI style study..?

Or a BWI bathroom?

Boys room, playroom... kids bathroom?

Love the tropical colours.

I am crazy for Pinterest right now! I can dream away for hours over gorgeous interiors, gardens and other great pins. Here are a few of my favourites from my Pinterest House.

A cool spot to enjoy a glass of wine.

British West Indies Style

You may remember a while back this I posted about a fellow British Colonial / West Indies design lover asking me for some ideas to adorn her beach pad in Florida. Well, she just sent me some updates she made to the room!! Here's my design board above and here's her fabulous room!! I think she did an awesome job, what do you think?

Bluebonnets in Texas

Me and Em

Well, just like my other new years resolutions, I broke the one where I promised to blog more often.... It's been a long time since my last post. I have been busy like a bee a work and am usually too pooped or busy with the family to get on and write. However, I thought I would share a few photos we took on a little nature walk from last week. The beautiful Blue Bonnets and Indian Paintbrush are taking over in the fields near our house and make for a lovely view.

I found a few rooms that remind me of the pretty shade of blue/purple that graces the landscape near us. However, in this case, I think Mother Nature does it best!

West Indies Style @ Pottery Barn

The first thing I'm gonna do when I win the lotto is head to Pottery Barn and buy one of everything in their Summer Preview.... it's like they snuck into my dreams...... I love everything they have! Especially their new Monaco Rattan Armchair... upon which I would place a Palm leaf pillow, which would sit beside their Hayden side table and then crack open a cold corona with the coolest Parrot beer opener... ahhh.... life would be so good.....
