She's got the look...

Has anyone else been thinking, "where is Emma these days..." like me. I mean, I feel like I just don't get enough of her fabulous style and with the website being under construction for what feels like a year now...you can imagine how happy I was to see some of her most recent work featured on Elle Decor's website...


A great read you must check it out, called the "Light Touch", which is certainly is in this case of the airy Hampton's home of the Cuomo's, of which Pilkington styled with a fun tailored approach...


One of my favorite rooms here, featuring mirrored side tables from Arteriors and vintage swivel chairs upholstered in Madeline Weinrib’s Purple Luce...


Adding yellow to this Kitchen feels so fresh and those Philippe Stark stools are just perfect with the lil cushions...


I'd like to be a guest in this house, with the much coveted Anthropologie bed I'd like to see in my own room and this lovely Cole & Son wallcovering...

Thinking slipper...

So, I'm on the hunt, as you may know, for some additional chairs to go with my new table. Not so easy, because I want then to be fun...but also comfortable, because "somebody" thinks these bamboo chairs are not so friendly to the back ...

But, I still plan on keeping the arm chairs in the room, just off to the side, and use the side chairs as back up when we are entertaining...

And then in my search though, I came across this image above and thought...I could do a slipcovered Parson's chair...I was thinking they'd be great China Sea's fabric...but what do you think? Should I continue the search for the perfect chair??

Tote"ally"


I have officially decided that my Summer will not be complete without this "Liz tote" from Periwinkle online, and currently I am taking donations...actually though, it's cute and affordable!!

I went Pagoda over it...

That's right, not only is Flutter, the cute store out of Portland offering "free shipping" this Summer on any online orders over $75...but, even better is they seem to be crazy about Pagodas, just like me.

Take a look at what I found...
Pagoda Pillow/12 x 12/ $58.00


Red Pagoda Lantern/$50
Pagoda Linen Pillow/16" x 16"/ $95



Jade Pagoda Lantern/ $75
Pagoda Hook Rugs/$95-$195

Back to back...

I wasn't always fond of this approach, but that's probably because I'd seen some bad examples, but really when you have a large living room with multiple seating areas...back to back sofas can do the trick and make a perfect statement...

You could go the mirrored approach, identical back to back sofas...here Alex Papachristidis took it one step further with matching floor lamps and rugs!! I just love this style and think it creates such a focal point for the room...

Or, how bout making your two couches into one, like Jeffery Bilhuber has done above...takes some committing though, because it's not so easy to move a piece of furniture like this. But, again it's a perfect fit with creating two separate entertaining spaces...

With two sofas back to back, this creates the a spot to place a slim console table between the two for lamps, accessories and such...

No reason you have to have it identical either though, this set up works really well too, going with separates that are similar in style...
