SO WE FINALLY ordered a projector, which arrived just in time for the weekend. We spent the entire weekend watching films projected huge on a blank wall, some of them flipped backwards before we could figure out the settings to flip them the right way around. We ate fattening foods and slept in and I finished another book ...
HAVEN'T BEEN able to stop thinking about Sarah Everard since her disappearance the night of March 3rd. We have been consumed with the news for nearly two weeks now. There have been so many thoughts, so many feelings, a lot of sadness, and a lot of anger. I've been slowly trying to put things together into something (hopefully) coherent, but for now, perhaps it's best to take some time to reflect.
If only every unsightly television could be encased behind the two-way glass of a giant gilded mirror above the fireplace mantle as in the suites of The Ritz. If not, then the next best thing would be to hide a television in plain sight.
MAY NOT HAVE AS MUCH TIME for Instagram as before, but sometimes, checking in every so often can sometimes lead...
Anne-Laure Mais is like your fun, effortlessly chic French best friend. The fashion editor, based between Paris and London, has been running her fashion blog, Adenorah, since 2009. Born in Biarritz in the south of France (or the 'French California' as she puts it), Mais is not Parisian, so her look is far more casual. We adore her decidedly seventies vibe both in her Parisian apartment and her style, which includes high-waisted flares and brown velvet blazers, vintage denim and easy knits, and a beret from time to time for good measure ...
THERE AREN'T many Paris apartments that we don't like, but when we come across ones that are Joseph Dirand-esque, like this incredibly chic bachelor pad in the Place du Trocadéro, it's a very special thing.
AFTER YESTERDAY’S beautiful interior inspiration, there was one room in particular that lingered in my mind — dusky and romantic with white linen bedding, a...
WEEK TWO of social distancing and things feel far from normal, and whenever we're feeling a little stressed, it always helps to dream a little, and what better place to begin than the Parisian real estate listings on Instagram?
AS YOU KNOW, will forever and always be a maximalist, in décor and otherwise, [but especially the former], but can...
TODAY’S DECOR INSPIRATION is a two-bedroom from the 1930’s, located on the Left Bank of the Seine, Paris. The owner, an avid contemporary art collector, had wanted the heavy plaster cornices, marble star on the floor and gilt of the apartment’s “old-fashioned grandeur” removed for a “light and unpretentious interior”. While it may never, ever occur to this maximalist to remove the grandeur from the bones of a paris apartment . . .
This week’s At Home With features architectes d’intérieur, Charlotte de Tonnac et Hugo Sauzay, whose Paris apartment is in the 4ème arrondissement. We love their space, not for the classic chevron floors or juliet balconies, which are of course lovely, but because their home office situation is not unlike the one P & I enjoy at our place . . .
WE'RE AT THE START of Lockdown 2.0 and it seems our Instagram feed is becoming filled with shots from the outside looking in, photos of exteriors of buildings with people at home, experiencing the same things we are, and it's comforting, these voyeuristic and intimate shots ...
WE HAVE FEATURED the stunning Paris apartments by A+B Kasha before, but are clearly smitten with their work, for we have...

WE FIRST FEATURED THE HOME OF Interior Designers, Charlotte de Tonnac & Hugo Sauzay, in May of last year. New photographs of the beautiful Haussmannian Paris apartment have since surfaced, and we’re still as madly in love as ever with this cool yet chic, laid-back live/work space...
