THIS OR THAT: CLOSET CONFIDENTIAL!

May 8, 2012

Girly walk in closet with white drawers, a shelf for shoes, hangers and wall paper with gold diamond filigree pattern

Starting this post with a non sequitur…

True story…

Last night, when I got home after a dinner out with a friend I found a strange delivery at my front door. It was 10pm. When I walked up the stairs to my little cottage…there was a bed on the front stoop. A bed? Yes. A bed. Really it was huge box that contained a large bed frame. I immediately texted a neighbor and asked her if it was hers…it was not. I did not order a bed. I don’t need a bed…but for some reason someone delivered a bed to my front door. It looks like it came via FedEx. It was so heavy that I could not bring it in the house and it was so dark I couldn’t read the label. This is one of those bizarre things that seems to happen to me on a regular basis. Anyhooo…I’ll have CM look into this strange bed delivery situation today. Strange indeed.

Anyhooooooooo…back to design…lah dee dah.

So as you all know. I live in the smallest tiniest cottage in the Hollywood Hills. This means I have barely any closet space. I dream of a walk in dressing area…where I could study my wardrobe options, test out my fashion prowess, a vanity where I could preen and primp before leaving the house. Dreaming indeed. If I did have such a space, would I line the walls with wallpaper? Or would I leave them blank.

Take these two closets/dressing rooms for example…both very girly and feminine…both using wallpaper with a little shine and glimmer to it. Which of these do you like best? That’s the question in today’s this or that.

I’m liking the vanity dressing area with the butterfly wallpaper the best I think. I love the rock crystal knobs on the drawers.

Which do you like best? Or would you decline these girly closets and go for something more basic sans wallpaper?

Please do tell!

Happy Tuesday!

P.S.  Our ever so popular porcelain Ginger Jar made the May/June issue of New York Spaces magazine!  For some reason, this little jar has been one of the more popular items in the COCOCOZY Random Stuff section of the COCOCOZY shop…that’s the section where I curated a bunch of random home furnishings I love.  I have two of these jars sitting on my fireplace.  They are cute little accents!

    I’m falling in love with that dressing table and I have no space in my room for that, at all… Damn you! 😀
    I guess my IKEA shelves will have to be fired, pack all their stuff and GO!! There’s a new lovely dressing table waiting for the space! 😀

    Oh my god, Im in LOVE WITH THAT CLOSET! Seriously! Not to mention I’m a huge butterfly nut, so all those wall decals/stencils are drivin me crazy. Where are they from?? I just got a new bedding set from wakeupfrankie.com and it’s butterfly themed. They would be perfect!

    I love the second closet; the dressing table is fantastic! I often wonder about wallpaper myself. Sometimes, my fantasy closet has Gracie wallpaper, but most of the time it’s mirrored (a la Miles Redd’s bathroom). The latter is probably more me, but if there’s ever a place to go girly, it’s your closet!

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.
