How cozy!

I'm working in a beach cottage in Cape Mears. It is going to be colorful and cozy!!! We have the flooring and tile chosen, working on furnishings and window treatments and then it's on to lighting! Yippee! Thanks Miss Barbara for letting me plan this with you!

PARIS< HERE I COME...next week.......

So I am ALMOST out of here...I leave Monday the 5th but I have SOOOOOOOO much client work to do before I head off. .....and if I don't get over this head cold by then - if I actually have to fly to Paris with it - I think I'm gonna hurt someone! There is not much worse than flying with a head cold.

I'm stopping back through Chicago on my way back from Paris for the Casual Furniture Mart - all outdoor stuff - to place orders for Spring.

I am sooooo excited! Mais Oui!!!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Last of mood fabrics

And in come the designers from Project Runway. Crazy!

Mood fabrics

Cavalli, Versace, YSL, Puuci. Wow!

Mood fabrics.

Do Sue us completely obsessed with Project Runway and was horrified to find out that I don't watch it. She was also shocked to find out that our cab driver did not watch it nor did he know who Tim Gunn is or where Mood Fabrics. Mood what? So after poo pooing it for two days I finally let her drag me there. Holy crap did I have to eat a whole lot of crow!!! The place is AMAZING to say the least. Our guide Joe helped us navigate the copious aisles of fabric and almost a thousand dollars later I walked out with Alexander McQueen silk, orange cashmere coating, Hermes tie silk, Comme des wool......but we were actually escorted out ( after 3 hours ) so they could film Project Runways new accessory show. I thought Sue was going to have a heart attack. Hilarious! I am so making this a regular stop on every NYC trip from now on!!! Thanks Sue!!!

Last of Bergdorf photos.

Cool display on the first floor and cool window in 5th ave. Of course!

Bergdorf v

Their table top department is fantastic!

Bergdorf.

More of Bergdorf.

Including Kelly's boutique.

Lunch at Bergdorf. Sigh.

My favorite NYC ritual is a last day lunch at the 7 th floor cafe at Bergdorf. There is no other department store in the world like it. The redesign if the cafe was done by Miss Kelly W. So lovely!! After lunch we work our way around the home decor department and down the escalators where we met Kelly herself. Crazy day!!!! Should have bought a lottery ticket. Ran into - literally - Nate Berkus on the first floor. Nuts!

Holy.shit. I just met Kelly Wearstler.

For reals. At her new clothing boutique in Bergdorf Goodman. Love Love.

I am sooooo done. Get me out of here
