DESIGN PLAN: A WALKING DECOR TOUR OF PARIS

August 30, 2011
  • Share

A flea market on the banks of the Seine, a hotel with crystals embedded into the walls, a sneak peek inside the chic restaurant and store of Ralph Lauren and many many many random things that caught my eye along the streets in Paris.

This is today’s DESIGN GUIDE!

Now before you watch, three warnings:
1. Video skills at end of the post leave much to be desired. Some of the videos are so shaky you might get motion sick…and it is hard to hear my voice. I know…same question will come up…why post this then? I know.  May I say amateur?  Amateur might best describe the whole compiliation.  Not an audio/video master piece…but hopefully slightly amusing?!?!@#

2. I am not a decorator or designer, so this is the lay persons design tour of Paris.  Have to reiterate and caveat this point for the design pros who might watch this DESIGN GUIDE and be like “What in the world?…This is all that COCOCOZY girl found to talk about when she was in Paris…OMG…!”

3. Long…I know this too.  This is a long audio/video post.  Hopefully entertaining…or at least entertaining in a perplexing kind of way like, “Why would anyone do this?” type of way or “Why would this girl put all of these photos and videos together and post on Youtube…and then talk endlessly about them? Interesting…must watch to understand this creature.”   I tried to make it short…but I can’t seem to be brief. A problem. I know. I got it.  Need to practice not talking, or rambling, or chit chatting or even murmuring for a bit.  Sometimes I can tell my friends on the other end of the telephone line are stupefied by my ability to chit chat…in particular my guy friends who are at the other end of the spectrum of not chatting at all!

Okay.  So……..

I hope you enjoy (or at least get through it)!

Happy Tuesday!

    This is fun! And don’t worry about whether other people think you’re inspired by the “right things” when you’re in Paris. Design is personal, and Paris has so much to offer that no two people are going to have the same experience and walk away with the same impressions.

    So are you in Paris now? I’m headed there next week for Maison et Objet. If you will be showing your CocoCozy line at M&O, let me know where to find your booth.

    I LOVE this post….seriously!! It reminds me of the online voice-over Bill Cunningham does for his weekly NYT’s column, On the Street (which I absolutely adore). I have never been to Paris, but plan to when my daughter is a little older. Thanks for the post, it gives me some great places to look forward to!!!

Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tou Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tour of the rental house we had in Edgartown on MV this summer. A new build about 5 minutes from the center of town. 3500 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and a pool. House bad that beach house or coastal style decor. We were the first to rent it. What do you think? Would you rent thjs? Do you want to see the bedrooms?
It was our 2nd summer on the Vineyard. Next year, we are renting for the month. Same house. 💃🏾 I would love a bit bigger so more people could come but finding good rentals is hard on the Vineyard. Feel very lucky to have spent a magical few weeks in this spot.

Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Mart Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Martha's Vineyard house. I rented this house for our two week stay in Martha's Vineyard.
