Blanc d'Ivoire

A couple of years ago while in Paris, my husband and I walked into a gorgeous store! 

The furniture reminded me of everything French and the selection was the perfect combination of antique and modern elegance!  Ever since that day I have been a huge fan and would love to get my hands on some of this beautiful furniture.

Blanc d'Ivoire carries a large selection of beautiful light fixtures, consoles, buffets along with luxurious French quilts and bedding.

Lake Martin, Alabama... WOW!

I found a jewel-of-a-place!

There is this gorgeous lake house on Lake Martin, Alabama and it was designed by Tracery Interiors...  whom is now a favorite!

I can't get over the perfect combination of French antiques, galvanized metal and all the raw wood... simply  breathtaking!

... I want this lake house!!

Don't you love airy and unexpected? 

Hands down one of my favorites!

I'm Dreaming of France!

Can I just say I want to go to France in the spring so bad!  So it didn't help when I came across these beautiful images on my all-time favorite blog Greige!  

When I look at these images my mind starts to think all day, "Must... go... to... France..."

Isn't this home dreamy?!

Now we can all think of France today!

More on Lisa Luby Ryan!

Every time I go to Lisa's website, I get so much inspiration on every level!  Her vision is by far my favorite genre of design... monochromatic sophistication with a touch of chic.  

Below are some images from her store... enjoy!

Her holiday ideas are so dreamy!

Her lamps are by far my favorite!  She takes vintage elements and makes the perfect light fixtures, creating beautiful heirloom pieces!

Isn't this store perfection?!

Go check out her website, it will get you excited for the holidays!

The Perfect Mix!

This home with its hints of Gustavian and Southern French design, is the perfect blend of the old and new.  I can't help but to love the clean and simple aesthetic throughout all the rooms... especially the kitchen! 

When one thinks of Swedish style, we often think of white and blue-hued images of the Gustavian period.  

All I can say is there is nothing I love more than someone having the confidence to mix the old with the new, while keeping a simple balance.

I hope you enjoy these images as much as I do:
