Bold, outrageous, and downright droolworthy! Those are the words that come to mind when I see the images from this recent Vogue Living Australia spread by stylist extraordinaire Sibella Court. Inspired by the late--and much lauded--interior designer Marion Hall Best, these vignettes captivate me with their energy and dynamic use of color.
A gridded canvas almost as tall as the ceiling sets the scene for a tone-on-tone seating area with a bejeweled, bohemian mood. Rich emerald and deep sapphire textiles and upholstery offer up a luxe air without feeling overly precious, and brass lamps reflect the ample natural sunlight that streams through those stunning arched windows.
Ooh! What a fun glimpse of a trellis print wallpaper! A little cranny like this presents the perfect opportunity to use a swatch of larger-than-life pattern that might overwhelm the space if used to cover a whole room. The bright yellow phone makes this a perfect corner for a long gossip session with a girlfriend, wouldn't you say?

Oh.. all right! It's amazing, I like all the different textures but I couldn't live with all that color! I don't know, I think I'd get tired of seeing the same things everyday because they're so strong. But It's beautiful to see it... :-)
Hope you have a Gorgeous Day!

just what I needed to see on a day that is just one of a series of gray, rainy days we've been having. The canvas in the second photo is beautiful.

That kind of even-handed approach has guided Lady Antebellum through one of the most difficult periods any band must navigate — instant stardom. "Need You Now" catapulted the trio from a well-regarded young country act with plenty of promise to multiplatinum international pop stars.
