DePadova_Piero_Lissoni_Milan
One of my favorites from last week's trip to the Milan furniture fair was the sleek new showroom for DePadova and Boffi, designed by Piero Lissoni. Italian design at its best, the space is minimalist, classic and innovative.

I have been a huge fan of Hedi Slimane since his divine work at Dior Homme (ladies all over the world bought those slim, sexy mens suits). Now he is exiting Saint Laurent after four crazy successful years of sequins, rock n'roll and fishnets. Can't wait to see - and buy - what he does next. Check out his gorgeous photography at Hedi Slimane

Delightfully Drab

perfect_paint_wallpaper_drab_khaki_cement Khaki, Mud, Wet Sheep - I love a good drab paint or wallpaper to provide the humble and oh so perfect backdrop for a glimpse of yellow or vivid blue or fuchsia, and it looks marvelous with metallics! Clockwise from top left: "Shadow" and "Evergreen" wallpapers from Holland & Sherry; "Dog's Ear" from Eve Ashcroft Colors for Fine Paints of Europe; "Zenith" wallpaper from Osborne & Little; "Salon Drab" - my favorite - from Farrow & Ball; "London Brown No 4" from Mylands.
