These beautiful pieces designed by Christy Jackson for Verve Jewelry (available at Noni Boutique on Larchmont – one of my favorite stores of all time!) made me fall in love with our Crystal lamp and chandelier collection all over again. 
Both the jewelry pieces and the our lamp and chandelier collection (Fairbanks Table Lamps, Marliene Table Lamps, Tulip Chandeliers) are so classic and go well with everything.  One of things that makes them classic and easy to incorporate is that they work well with any color scheme. Also, don’t be afraid to mismatch metals people! It’s totally okay to do so and in fact makes for a more interesting look. I love wearing several necklaces in different metals or throwing in some antique brass sconces in a bathroom with all satin nickel hardware.

I wish I was as glamorous as the photos Laura Hull took of me on Superbowl Sunday for a new interior design & furniture line campaign. Luckily no one on the crew was a die hard football fan, because it took an entire crew to make a single image look "natural".  How incredible would it be to wake up and have these amazing artists create you every morning.  Here are some behind the scenes shots of our day at Plush Home.  Add Alicia Keys and the smell of cappuccino and you'll have a sense of our fun day...

Makeup and eyebrows by the super fabulous Kristie Striecher.  Krisitie splits her time between A-List clients in New York and Los Angeles (pick up any random issue of Vogue or Glamour and one of her clients will be in it).  So you may have to be patient to get an eyebrow appointment….but trust me, it’s worth it.  You can reach Kristie through www.streicherbeauty.com.

Elaine Lewis (and Megan Misaki) own Noni Boutique , and Elaine was kind enough to lend her talents as my stylist on the shoot.  The next time you’re on Larchmont Boulevard in Los Angeles (which is pretty much every other Sunday for me), definitely block out some time to visit Elaine’s shop… Noni Boutique 225 N Larchmont Blvd | Los Angeles, CA 90004 | (323) 469-3239

Rita Marso is my secret hair connection.  She’s the most talented and creative hair stylist (really a “sculptor”) that I’ve ever worked with.  You can make appointments with Rita through Suburbia Salon.

Honestly, these guys were not nearly as good as they looked.  It’s a lesson that sometimes presentation is half the battle (shown on a rare Keith Haring China server, edition #1 by Villeroy & Boch)
