You know how love affairs that start young can last a lifetime? That pretty much sums up my relationship with Waterworks—the unparalleled best source for luxe bathroom and kitchen fittings and fixtures on the market today. When I was in college, there was a Waterworks Showroom located not far from my campus; and while my […]
Last week when I was in Toronto I had the epic pleasure of wearing a sweater and jeans. After a sweltering summer in LA, this outfit felt like a revelation indeed! The experience has got me very much in the mood for fall, which is why I’m so excited to share this fall flower arrangement that I […]
Phew! I’m back in LA after a whirlwind week of travels, first to see my parents in Toronto and then a for a quick stop in Seattle to speak at the Create & Cultivate conference. I always forget how much I love public speaking and networking opportunities until I’m actually in the midst of them; […]
This morning I hopped a plane from Toronto, where I was visiting my parents, to Seattle, where I’ll be speaking on a panel at the Create & Cultivate conference. I left with major hearts in my eyes for the progressive Canadian city that I consider my hometown. Every time I spend time there, I’m struck […]

We’d booked a Saturday event with the expectation that the bathroom would be ready to receive guests…but the wallpaper that we’d ordered had gone missing en route, and we couldn’t install anything else (sink, toilet, etc.) until the […]
I’ll start this post by saying that I’m deeply troubled by the weekend’s events in Charlottesville, Virginia. I can think of little else. I spent much of the day composing a piece that I’d hoped to complete in time to share with you today, but it’s still a work in progress and I don’t want […]
I’ve been thinking and talking a lot lately about the intersection between tech and interior design. As our lives become ever more connected, our homes do too! It’s taken a little while for certain sectors of the tech industry to catch up with the preferences of certain decor perfectionists around here (cough, cough) but thankfully […]
At long last, all the major decisions for the living room decor in my new house have been made. The trigger has been pulled on some exciting custom pieces (!) and the really fun part of picking out small decor accents is upon us! I’m on the hunt for a modern table lamp that packs […]
