J'ADORE ADORE: CONDO CULTURE

Originally having seen vignettes of this lovely Canadian apartment before, I was naturally intrigued when I saw the whole spread in this months Adore Home Magazine. True to Aussie style, really, are the sumptuous bright colors juxtaposed with clean white...


I think I might even have a little design crush on Peter Wild, who decorated this space absolutely flawlessly. He clearly has a wonderful understanding of color and texture - and a meticulous eye for how they work together...



The stripes, the florals, the fantastically feminine chandelier.. paired with classic pieces of furniture and luxurious textural elements like natural fibers and tufting is complete perfection.




The seemingly unexpected room with little bright color works because these colors are muted, as the bright colors are very true hues.

J'ADORE ADORE

I know all of us here in the Northern Hemisphere are on the polar express not stopping until we get to  Christmas [ and one with the coziest of interiors! ]. But - down under, summer is underway. Adore Home Magazine is a fab new online shelter pub out of Australia and I am absolutely drooling over this clean and refreshing Hamptons home...



I love the way they have glammed up earthy elements like that organic wooden table in the entryway painted in a metallic silver...


the subway tile backsplash looks like seaglass... love!


I think its the subtle and perfectly appointed color pops against this white palette which make it so stunning.

OUR FAVORITE ONLINE MAGAZINES

...now can be accessed from one place!

 I am always trying to make luxe + lillies more "inspiration friendly".  In addition to some of the other resources on my far right sidebar, I have now added one solely for all of the fabulous online glossies we love to read over and over. With six (wow!) new publications in the last year alone, it can be easy to forget about one or the other from time to time. Hopefully you will find this function of my blog helpful when you are looking to peruse online!


Happy Reading!

If I am forgetting one, or you know of a new one starting up, I would be happy to add it, please comment or send me an email!
