Design

I have to admit I never picked up an issue of Town & Country until Stephen Drucker took over. Not sure what it was like before, but his first issue impressed me. This Atlanta home designed by color genius Miles Redd and photographed by Francesco Lagnese is opulence at its finest. The living room?? The walls are covered in stretched turquoise silk satin. The dressing room? Hand painted de Gournay wallaper. And the breathtaking bedroom floor?? Oscar de la Renta leopard-print carpet. I love the fashion sketches in the bathroom covering the platinum blue Boussac Tarentelle wallpaper too. Oh the other half! Time to announce the lucky winner of the Candace Rose giveaway! Tyler of Tyler's Taste Tests !!! And with that happy news, I'm going to turn off my computer and get ready for my trip to New York! I leave tomorrow morning and will be gone 10 whole days. Yay! I asked some of my favorite bloggers to entertain and inspire us with their favorite turquoise spaces. You'll love ...

Just stopping in with these images from Gourmet magazine to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving! I want you to know how very thankful I am for you guys...all of your comments, support, enthusiasm, photos, and of course, for our shared love of all things turquoise! I also want to wish my step-mom Diana a very happy birthday today too!!! I hope you have a wonderful day celebrating! I wish I could be there!

If you love turquoise as much as me, then you'll certainly appreciate this 1964 bathroom that Pam over at Retro Renovation profiled on her blog. That aqua tile is awesome, especially when paired with the metallic gold liner tile.
