The Shop by H. Bleu



Yesterday I had a chance to go up to Venice (I have lived in California all my life and never been to Venice, Ca.  I have been to Venice, Italy though - weird huh) to meet with Susan from H. Bleu.  Susan is creating a custom wall treatment or art piece for me in a project that I am working on, I am so excited!  Her shop was so fun and creative, she is super talented and has a love for all things vintage.   We had a chance to chat, which is my favorite thing to do with creative people, I could go on for hours.  Susan was also nice enough to direct me to a cute neighborhood where I could get some lunch and shop.... more on that coming next week.









This is the style of the piece she is making for me - I cannot wait to see mine in the space!  One of my favorite things about design is being able to work with people who can make what is in my head part of real life.  There are so many talented artists and designers out there and I so enjoy a collaboration like this.




Visit H. Bleu here to see more about Susan and The Shop!

{shop design} Joe's Jeans South Coast



I was working earlier this week (honestly working) and stopped for lunch in South Coast Plaza.  I was so excited to see that they had finally opened the Joe's Jeans shop.  From my lunching vantage point I was able to see there fun window display of hanging vintage items.  Loved that!
I was lucky enough to be able to chat with the sales people in the shop about design and the great look they had going on.  I cannot wait to see what they have in store for the holiday displays.  

They did a great job of mixing vintage and new and the texture in the space was so well used.  I completely loved the rainbow colored jean wall.


Their room within the space was created from vintage windows and doors painted in a heavy white.

New Bohemian..




Always loving the over stated style of Ralph Lauren.  This is always great to look at, I am just not sure I would be able to leave this chair as is- but is has great bones.

Look for our winners of the Vintage by Nina book tomorrow as well as a few other things.

Window shopping in Paris















On our first night in Paris we did a bit of window shopping after we ate.  I love the shops in Paris, each has a unique and fun aesthetic.  It is inspiring to just walk through the streets, peek into the shops and just imagine that you could purchase everything.  
This is yet another reason that I love Paris!
