Versace for H&M!

Donatella Versace announced this morning that she'll be collaborating with H&M for not one but two separate collections, one to launch on November 17 of this year, and the next to debut as a pre-spring collection that will be available on January 19, 2012. Included in the collection(s) are menswear, womenswear, and homeware, which I'm REALLY excited about! If the homeware items are anything like the luxurious duds in Donatella's home (see photos below), they'll be sure to go fast. 

As for the clothes, Vogue UK says to "expect leather and colourful prints for the girls; sharp tailoring and plenty of bling for the boys."

Home Inspiration

 I have HUNDREDS of home inspiration photos loaded into a folder on my laptop and have been obssesed lately with collecting them because my fiance and I are starting to look to buy our first home. My decorating style is modern with an Old Hollywood twist. Below are my favorite inspirational photos taken from various magazines, books, and blogs.

Interior Design: Carrie and Big's Apartment in Sex and the City 2

In Sex and The City 2, Carrie proclaims that she's been "cheating on fashion for furniture", which is apparent in her and Big's NYC apartment in the sequel. I fell in love with every room and admire the use of several different textures, patterns, and colors.
Onto the tour...

Up next...I will be doing a "where to buy" and "look for less" for several pieces in the apartment, stay tuned!
