SITTING PRETTY IN THE PALISADES!

October 7, 2010
  • Share

A home in the Pacific Palisades…I think that would work for me. For those of you who are not from Los Angeles, the Pacific Palisades is an area on the west side of town beginning just west of Brentwood around Sunset Boulevard and ending up right at the beach at Pacific Coast Highway. Lots of beautiful homes…it is gorgeous there…quite posh and very family friendly (since I’m not married nor do I have kids (translation = single)… this area does not quite appeal to me…maybe it is because everyone there is up and out of their houses by 7:00a on the weekends with their kids doing stuff…too early for me on a Saturday. I am usually up at that time…but it typically takes me until 9:00-10:30am (uh 11a) to rev up and get out of the door on the weekends! If everyone in the Palisades got up and going at 10-11:30a on the weekends…I would move there…hopefully “Palisadians” are reading this and decide to change their ways so I can relocate to this gorgeous area…please stand by for an update…you may be standing by for a long time…but please stand by…anyhooooooooooooo….).

All this talk about the Pacific Palisades is because apparently this home is located there! Impeccably designed by Kristine Kamenstein owner of Jackson Paige Interiors, this home is an absolute delight. Fresh and modern but with traditional and classic bones. Love it.

As far as color goes, the den is a study in elegant restraint except for the fun pops of electric orange that energize the room. (above)

Love the red coral like chandelier above the breakfast nook table (above)

Wood floors and a red cast iron claw foot tub in the master bath…wonderful! (above)

If I could move into this house, I would adjust my weekend schedule a bit!

Love the yellow upholstered lucite bench in the living room and also love the polished metal pendant lights in the kitchen…if you even care what I like.

Actually, I’d love to hear your thoughts. What do you think dear readers…any thoughts?

Happy Thursday (going back to work this morning after a few productive days off)!

P.S. Night has fallen and I just got home from a fab dinner at Jar with JS and was re-reading post…found 1 million and a half typos. Have corrected them some 13-14 hours after publishing!!!!!!!! Yoooohooo readers…please help me out here…tell me if there are typos please (Ruthita hello)…this was a disgrace but here goes the excuses…I was blogging at 6am…bleary eyed…tired…rolled out of bed…barely coherent in the morning as mentioned in post above…I have corrected most of the typos…although there are probably many still in this post…help…it takes a village?…hello?…oh boy…adding to the to do list…watch typos…done…I hope…hee hee!

    I would LOVE to know the name/brand of the gray paint used throughout this house! We are planning to repaint our home in gray – a perfect neutral backdrop for those pops of color. LOVE, love this shade, please help if you can Coco!

    Thanks!

    LOVE. Just my choice for pops of color. Maybe a little more texture/color/pattern somewhere in the way of vintage textiles.

    This is a beautifully done home; perfect balance of chic traditional and modern which makes it both great to look at and I’m sure very comfortable to live in.
    Thanks for posting..I just discovered your blog and as a fellow Angeleno who just bought a home it is a great source of eye candy and inspiration!

    I would also love to know the gray paint color. I am about to decorate my nursery for our daughter in a soft gray with a pop of bright yellow on the window treatments. The bright orange is in our other daughter’s nursery and she loves it!

    The gray in house reminds me of the color of my kitchen. It is Math Gray by Kelly Moore. I usually love gray and white but today (maybe my mood, maybe the chilly mornings) this house left me feeling cold. I liked the house the other day with the dark brown accents with the gray. Maybe
    it is the lack of rugs.

    COLOR UPDATE: Kristine, the designer, got back to me about the color used in the living room. It is Benjamin Moore’s Cement Gray! Hope that helps!

    Thanks again to Kristine for the wonderful interior photos!

    In case anyone was wondering, the birds wallpaper is by Trove:

    they have a great line of similarly whimsical wallpaper.

Behind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOBehind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOCOZY bedding collection at the Welspun showroom in New York. Met with some buyers, had a fun time with the Welspun team, then capped off the weekend with a visit with friends. It is a long process to get bedding in stores across the country...showing the collections at textiles market is one of the first steps!
If you're interested in learning how I have gotten @cococozy products into stores around the country over the years including in major retailers...follow along...just one entrepreneur's journey. :)

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
