Pamela Skaist-Levy’s Home

 Pamela Skaist-Levy's colorful bedroom designed by Peter Dunham via belle vivir blog

It should not take you by surprise that this house belongs to Pamela Skaist-Levy, co-founder of Juicy Couture in Beverly Hills, CA. Many of you may have even seen the images quite a few times since being featured in Harper’s Bazaar a few years ago. The house was designed by Peter Dunham and the Juicy Couture’s sense of drama and wild sophistication is imminently present, which Peter called “Duchess of Windsor meets Iron Maiden.” However Mr. Dunham wants to describe this house I’m up to move-in tomorrow.

The dining room table is stunning. A much inexpensive version here.

Ain’t your mama’s bathroom…

 

Things are a little bit over my head right now, While in the process of finishing up the Golfer Flat, starting of a family’s uptown apartment and now I’m about to start redoing our two bathrooms. Our master and Lucas’, which also happens to be the guest bathroom. All these (our bathrooms) my hubby and I want it to be completed before Spring is over, right…, so we can enjoy the beautiful days without stress. Let’s see if I can deliver.
For Lucas’ bathroom I’m planning to install a one pedestal tub which I find more dynamic and appealing for a little boy than clawfoot ones. Now, for our master bath I’m needing, (do I really need it?) a soaking tub, but our bathroom is smaller or I shall say narrower than the other bathroom and because of the floor plans of both bathrooms (more on that later) I cannot remove any of the walls in order to be able to fulfill my need. But I’m determined to do it. My husband always tells me “why do you opt for difficult things?” I guess it’s in my nature. Any suggestions as what I could do?

The Perfect Kitchen

It’s Monday and a beautiful one…Seriously; let’s talk about this Kitchen. This is one of the most beautiful kitchens I’ve seen in my entire life. The flow that tides all the different elements is just perfect. The architectonic black iron sky light tides with the respectable la cornue range and hood and ceiling pendants, the magnificent stunning copper center island picks up the rest of the copper throughout, and those wide slabs of wood floor perfects it even further. This image is topping the file of my kitchen inspiration files. Brilliant!!!  via House Beautiful

God is in the DETAILS

Fresh flowers, mirrored boxes and framed art in a powder room, all in
white, black and gilded- it’s always a delight to unveil. While
displaying more accessories such as sketches, handsome hand written
poems and artistic plates in front of a chicken-wire-like bookcase is a
nod to “everything is in the details”

 

sorry don’t remember the sources.

Sancho Pancho

I’ve been smitten by Chloe since I ever remember and have been coveting one of their capes for an even longer time. Their clothes are always soft and feminine with a touch of youthfulness seduction that I can relate to and would feel utterly feminine while wearing them. These images below are from their pre-fall 2011 collection and the poncho… is undoubtedly to die for.

A lush powder room

Simple details can express a lot about your hostess manners. Things like delicate embroidered towels, scented sprays and soft and lush paper napkins for retouches are a way of making your guests special and welcomed. Of course, a bathroom like this, designed by Miles Redd, would say much more about your sense of style.  I really love the exotic black and white marble top and the sink base with lucite or maybe glass and chrome legs.
