IT WAS A PAELLA ON THE BACK TERRACE kind of weekend; and cheese trays and Serrano and baguettes with paté on Sunday, after spending a leisurely afternoon in the shade of a giant Moreton Bay fig tree while a fluttery wind rustled the leaves and we sipped our summery drinks and talked about life. Things can be such a whirlwind on weekdays–but weekends, weekends were made late mornings and cava nights …

DISCOVERED THE HOME of Interior Designer Amelia Widell back in March of this year, but had been waiting to feature it until...
RECENTLY CAME ACROSS this chic and dramatic home in Ostermalm, Stockholm on Bárbara's blog, Living Gazette. The 142 square foot, four bedroom apartment was listed on the real estate site Lagerlings for 17.5 million SEK (about 2 million USD). After looking closely at the space, there seemed to be something oddly familiar about the space -- the herringbone flooring, leopard rug, and especially the ginger jar blinds in the kitchen. Of course, remembered then that it was the same home we had featured here in August 2015 as the home of Christine Roth, then the Global Marketing Director at GANT. The décor has changed somewhat, but some of Roth's artwork, as well as the blinds and leopard rug, remain the same. Scroll through for a glimpse of this wonderfully eclectic space, and click here for a comparison of how the home looked previously.

THE NEW YORK TIMES Style Magazine ran a great piece recently on the Parisian designer and architect Joseph Dirand, a favourite of ours here at This Is Glamorous. In it, he spoke of one of his dream projects, one where he there were no creative or budgetary constraints, or any constraints at all for that matter. A project where he was completely free to realise his fantasme with the client's blessing, who told him “I want you to achieve your dream; that would be my dream”.
