This chic living room is the work of the incredibly talented interior designer Ashley Whittaker:
This white living room is accented with turquoise and cerise, and totally reminds me of Dagny of Scandinavian Chic‘s living room (and blog design for that matter). I love how Ashley picked a very soft turquoise hue for the shelf and made it all pop with the cerise and contrasting black. Also, I’m loving the natural accents she placed in the shelf like crystals, seashells and corals.

We don’t get to see all the pretty colors from this angle, which almost makes it look like a different room. Of all things I’m loving the gold lamp cord.. haha! It looks so strict and clean. Also, notice the beautiful Greek key lining on the sofa skirt.
*
Ashley is not afraid to mix metals, as seen here with the silver tray. LOVE the purple peony bouquet, my favorite flower (which I can finally remember the name of =)

It’s so fascinating to look into the homes of the rich and famous, as they have all the means to create the perfect home. This time we’ll take a look into actress Gwyneth Paltrow’s Long Island home. Here we go:
*
This is our actress in her gorgeous living room. Gwyneth obviously like her home light and classic with pops of pastels. On a side note, I adore her dress!
*
A beautiful pale gray damask wallpaper graces the entryway and staircase. Black accents and chrome finishes adds a modern touch to the classically beautiful space.
*
The artwork is by Ann Carrington, and it’s made out of shiny ivory buttons!
*
This dining room is the epitome of simple romantic design. The Swarovski blossom chandelier is available here for those of you who can afford it. It’s only $27,350.00.

BEST HOME NEWS / HEADBOARD / PILLOW / BUTTERFLY PILLOW
This is Gwyneth’s daughter Apple’s bedroom. In keeping with the rest of the house, this bedroom is light and airy, with splashes of fuchsia for a girly princess look.
*
The kitchen has matte black cabinets and beige tiling, and a pair of white chandeliers brings on the glamour.

I recently discovered textile designer Anette Tatum. I love these three designs Anette did for her celebrity clients Marcia Cross and Minnie Driver.
