BelAir Studio & Design

Located off of Greenville right across from the great restaurant Terilli's this home boutique houses unique and one of a kind items any home will appreciate! This new Dallas gem had a few pieces I have to get my hands on, such as the Louis Vuitton trunk voyage picture! Too cute!

This party was hosted by D Home magazine along with Dallas blogger Cynthia Smoot from Oh So Cynthia! And in true Cynthia style there were great drinks and cameras flashing! Lol! But this time it was Thomas Garza who was snapping away behind the lens!

Make sure you drop by and see what goodies your home cant live without!

The Pin Show 2012

A little late but better than not at all!
The Pin Show was held this February at the Fairmont hotel downtown!
And boy what a crowd that came out!!
There was a varied crew from the fashion known to the obscure and what a melting pot! Lol!
There were several designers already known from Texas Next Top Designer as well as from other local competitions. Good and bad were seen from all designers, but overall my favorite collection was from designer Yasmina Johnson! Way cool clothes and you'll definitely be seeing more from her! (She's doing a couple of jackets for DIFFA this year!)

Here's a few pics from the event! Hope you enjoy!

Decoration 101

Lesson number One:

Boots are not Hammers!!!

While over at my friend Deb SoRelle's place today I was asked to help with hanging drapery rods, and to rehang a picture.

Being myself I was all too ready to help!

Then came the hanging of said picture.....I asked for the hammer....out came a cowboy boot!!

Speechless is not the world for what I was.

BOOTS ARE NOT HAMMERS!! I yelled, and then bust out in laughter!!

As it turns out, they make very effective hammers. They have a larger surface area, and make it easier to hit those pesky nails!

You learn something new every day!

Happy Decorating!

Time for Events!

Starting off my week at NorthPark center:

Simon Doonan will be making a personal apperance at Barney's NorthPark to sign copies of his book - "Gay Men Don't Get Fat" from 5-7pm.

A great book here's the pre-face:

Simon Doonan knows that when it comes to style, the gays are the chosen people. A second anthropological truth comes to him midway through a turkey burger with no bun, at an otherwise hetero barbecue: Do the straight people have any idea how many calories are in the guacamole? In this hilarious discourse on and guide to the well-lived life, Doonan goes far beyond the secrets to eating like the French-he proves that gay men really are French women, from their delight in fashion, to their brilliant choices in accessories and décor, to their awe-inspiring ability to limit calorie intake. A Gucci-wearing Margaret Mead at heart, Doonan offers his own inimitable life experiences and uncanny insights into makes gay people driven to live every day feeling their best, and proves that they have just as much-and possibly better-wisdom, advice, and inspiration beyond the same old diet and exercise tips.

Sure to be a riot of laughs, this is a must read for anyone in fashion or even an inkling for fashion forward living!!

Afterwards i'll be headed to DISH for their 2 year anniversary celebration from 7-9 pm!

It's sure to be a fun evening full of fun and laughter!!

Hope to see you out!
