The Most Perfect Pantry

I think I would die and go to heaven if this pantry magically appeared in my home. Floor-to-ceiling open shelving and transparent glass canisters make for a very utilitarian chic display. Would you expect anything less from the styling genius that is Emersonmade? See more of her darling seaside retreat here

I Wish I Could Draw

Behold the beautiful illustrations of Garance Doré, the wildly popular French fashion photographer whose eponymous blog has garnered international attention for her refreshingly carefree spirit and her glamourous portraits of girls with great personal style. Don't these illustrations make you wish you could draw? Or at least purchase her work somewhere online?

Leopard In The Home

{Metropolitan Home}
Leopard, how I love thee! It's a print that works incredibly well in small doses but how do you feel about it as the primary hue in these homes? Mary McDonald's leopard gallery wall — and upholstery — is beautifully accented with gold and black frames. The leopard runner is a fabulous focal point in a swanky black-and-white foyer but my favorite space, hands down, is Aerin Lauder's orange living room with its leopard sofa! It's not for the faint of heart but I think it's spunky and chic. Would you dare?
