I’m fascinated with the brand that fashion designer Tory Burch has built…I am now equally fascinated with her rather regal Southampton estate!
Was browsing around Vogue’s website and noticed they had a bit about Tory’s stunning home in the Hamptons. Very traditional but a place I could certainly all home!
With the help of architect and designer Daniel Romualdez, and decorator Eve Hood, Tory created a grand home that also looks extremely comfortable and accessible.
I read this New York Magazine article on Tory Burch and her ex-husband Chris Burch this weekend while driving out to my parents’ house with my sis DS. What was most interesting about the article was reading about how Tory’s company got started and has grown. She had a vision and made it happen. Just a few years after starting her company, Tory Burch the brand is valued in the billions. Wow.
So let’s see…Tory is fashionable, has a fantastic country house, and has built an amazing business…not to mention she’s a mom of 3! My design crush and friend of COCOCOZY Jonathan Adler might have to inch over a bit and make some room for Tory Burch on my design icon bench!
Anyhooo…here’s Tory’s little country house…

Not sure where to start here with what I like…I like so much! I love the outdoor dining room and I love that printed wallpaper in the formal dining room to name a few! Lovely home! What do you think? Do you like this home? Is it too formal or just right for you (I imagine myself living in a castle one day, so no home is too formal for me)? What do you think of Tory Burch’s style at home?
Happy Wednesday!

Of course she would live in a GORGEOUS house like this!
oh my, that poolhouse! it just doesn’t get better.
The dining room is so classical and original, just like Tory. The thought and skill that it took to do this project is something to be admired.
I love Tory Burch… but those first two pictures are sooo cluttered. Did the photo stylists have to cram every cool piece she had into the shot? With that much pattern and texture, less accessories would have been more.
I’ll move in tomorrow. Beautiful!

What a classic home that is gorgeous! I love the checked hallway.

WOW! You go, Tory! Was Chris Burch an IDIOT or WHAT????
It could not be lovelier. Refreshing to see beautiful fabrics and treasured and collected objects. After seeing the 1000th house in all white covered furniture and an absence of pretty objects, it looks new again to see this home. While I know it wont be to everyone’s taste who prefers spare interiors, those of us who love handsome fabrics will revel in it. Thanks for sharing.
I think she nailed it! Love the relaxed grandeur. Classic elements, modern eye.
Look at what all of our shoes and handbags have paid for!! It is a beautiful home, though
Lovely! Gorgeous and classy! All the rooms are so original and detailed!
I adore the outdoor spaces. Love the high contrast black and white.
Its very lovely. Beautiful and elegant, but to me its a little too ‘old’ for her. I was expecting a slightly more fun and eclectic interior from Tory
INcredible! I love her designs, and pretty much everything she does. Going to run off to read that article you linked now!
I definitely see similarities to her NYC apartment. Love it of course!
I love that server below the large painting. The deep stain against the light walls looks fantastic. B-E-A-utiful!
Coco I adore the solarium. So wonderfully unique. I could love in this one room! ( with a cozy daybed)
