Fashion Passion

I love to see when two worlds collide; although they don’t fall that far apart. See how interior design emulates fashion design, and vice versa.

Strip-Please

Some of my favorite places to shop exist as such for the simple pleasure of their fabulous dressing room. Now here’s a place I’ll need to stop by the next time the girls and I make a weekend getaway to Vegas; it’s the Miss Sixty store on the strip. Their changing rooms are a cluster of white domes in the middle of the store – a plus for good looks and creativity – but possibly not so much for design – they make for a fun way to change in and out of outfits, but only as long as you don’t mind showing off that silhouette!

Eco Squared

This fabulous ottoman by GH design is great if you're looking for a chic way to bring your fashion sense outdoors. The entire square is "upholstered", as you might say, in grass. Which means for a luncheon on the green you hardly have to leave your front door. Try pairing a couple on either side of a white wire wicker table for instant tea-time glam, or place a few scattered about a cement entryway for a green-conscious contemporary vibe.
