High Gloss Glamour

Have you checked out the latest issue of High Gloss Magazine?! It's packed with gorgeous photos, interesting articles and fashion & home decor must-haves for summer. I was especially taken by the Beverly Hills living room that was featured, designed by Melissa Warner (pg.51). The color palette, furniture and fabrics she used are just stunning. The overall design is fresh, modern and glamorous. Coincidentally, the color scheme in this living room is pretty much the same scheme I used to design my room at the Good Shepherd Shelter! Deep fuchsia, gray, white and pops of yellow. I finished my room last Saturday, along with 9 other designers, and we had them professionally photographed on Sunday. I'm thrilled with how my room turned out and can't wait to share the photos with you! However, until they finalize which magazine(s) may be interested in publishing some of the re-designed rooms at the shelter, we've been barred from publishing photos of our rooms all over our blogs :( I might put together a small style board with hints of the finished room to give you a sneak peek...I'm dying to show you. I'll keep you posted. For now, be sure to see the rest of this living room and the full issue of High Gloss / July/August edition.

Inspiration Snapshot: Chic Elegance

Doesn't this room feel like a breath of fresh air?! I spotted it in the brand new issue of High Gloss Magazine, which launched today. I'm usually not a fan of white walls but in this case, white totally works. The gold frames, grasscloth upholstered ottoman, black lamp shade and cowhide rug add texture and depth to the space; the pops of lavender and purple bring everything to life. It's feminine, classy, simple and chic. I love, love it! You too? See the rest of this fabulous home designed by Mary McGee, on pg.97 of High Gloss Magazine.
