Love "The Line" NYC

Isn't Instagram fun for finding fabulous follows? Try saying that ten times fast!  I follow Carolyn Murphy because I think she has amazing style and beauty and also great decorating taste. She posted about  @ thelinenyc , THE LINE and I was instantly hooked.  They have fashion and home goods that are clean and cool, modern yet classic and they have as store at 154 Main St  Amagansett, Hamptons. It's a Seasonal store and I can't wait to hit it when I get myself to the beach.
Have no fear it is also online for all to shop. So if you cannot make to the beach go HERE!

Classic Khaki!

I see such a trend towards gray and white these days. Believe me there is nothing wrong with that but there are other lovely neutrals out there too. One of my favorite neutrals to use for those who don't want gray is good old khaki.  I love it with other pale tones such as flax and cream, but I also love it mixed with bold colors such as Aubergine and Persimmon. Just like a great pair of khaki pants or shorts it's really a classic. What is you favorite go too neutral other than gray?

Putting together khaki and aubergine for a basement project.

Another great combo mixing gold, khaki and plum.

Yes, khaki even works with gray!

Eclectic NJ Beach Bungalow Tour !

I had the pleasure of visiting a dear friend who just renovated her Jersey beach bungalow. I use to partner with Nancy up in Rhinebeck, NY in an antique business.  She has such a fabulous eye for the unexpected. She can find a treasure in a pile of garbage.  I also love how Nancy recycles pieces and arranges them in a cool, eclectic manner.  This is why it's so important to remember that new is good but vintage with interest makes the space. I can truly say that this is no cookie cutter home and it is as inviting as it is interesting and well done.  I hope you all have wonderful plans this weekend as we remember those who fought for this country to keep it free.  Now come along for a tour I know you will want to pin a few of these images for sure!!

Yes this is New Jersey!!




Did I mention she is an amazing chef!!
