BLACK IN FASHION

February 17, 2015

black-arpartment-romain-ricard

Okay…the other day I had a business meeting with some of my New York colleagues…the meeting was a a video conference call to be exact…when I walked into the meeting sporting a simple black Prada dress, black Woford opaque tights and super high Stuart Weitzman booties, someone on the other end of the video conference call said, “Here comes Coco.  Looking chic as always. She is always wearing black.  Coco I know you don’t know most of the people in the room over here…but some of us were talking the other day and we wondered, do you always wear black?” Without a beat I said “Yes.”  Then my former intern said “The one time she wore purple shoes our boss made fun of her.”  Hmmm…

Anyhoo…all of this to say, I wear a lot of black.  In home decor however, I am a believer in a lot of white…bright crisp clean rooms with white walls and touches of pattern and color here and there.

What about an entirely black apartment our home…would that work and go with my work attire?  Hmmm…thinking….

P.S. Got back from Beaver Creek late last night. TE and I spent the weekend at best of friend FF and CCFs gorgeous skin in ski out home right on the mountain. Was so nice hanging out with them and my godson CGF. We had a great dinner on Sunday night with JH and FH too. Was so much fun!

Alexis Banks Humiston didn’t just design this 9,20 Alexis Banks Humiston didn’t just design this 9,200 sq ft Nashville home, she moved in with the family for two days first.
She interviewed everyone, including the 6 and 8-year-olds, before touching a wall. The payoff shows up in the details: a hand-painted constellation ceiling in the son’s room by @willemrackestudio, a floral canopy bed for the daughter, and a hidden reclaimed-wood bar tucked into the attic eaves.
Every room feels like it was made to be lived in, not admired.

The kitchen island gets all the credit. The stools The kitchen island gets all the credit. The stools rarely get any.
Velvet, woven wood, molded modern, sculptural, cast brass — seven islands, seven completely different takes on where you actually sit down. Some rooms go quiet with it, some go bold. Both work.
Which stools would you steal for your own island? Drop your answer 👇

An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate.An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate. 🍂
You don’t need a perfectly styled table or a dozen new pieces to make a fall gathering feel special. Start with what you already have and layer in a few simple details.
Think woven placemats + simple white plates + gingham napkins + fresh greenery. Add clear glassware and a simple centerpiece, and you have a table that feels warm, collected, and ready for dinner with friends.
The best part? Most of these elements can work beyond fall, too. Just switch out the napkin pattern or greenery and you have a completely different look.
Save this for your next fall gathering and use it as a starting point for your own table. 🤎
