Dining Room

Townhouse Dining Room Chic

October 29, 2019
  • Share

Today I’m covering an incredible Manhattan townhouse dining room. Created by legendary interior designer Sheila Bridges, this dining room is expertly designed! The home is extremely luxe and refined in style. The dining room stood out to me because of its unique design. The mix of colors, styles, and furniture creates a completely unique space. Instead of just showing you the dining room – I paired fall dresses to wear to a gathering at this home. Whether brunch, a long afternoon lunch, or a formal dinner these are the perfect dresses to wear! 

A WEEKEND BRUNCH

This view of the dining room is full of light and showcases the china cabinet. This corner of the room is a very artistic and curated feeling. The multi-colored curtains add the perfect amount of color and softness to the room. I love the warm maple dining room table – It beautifully brightens the room. The chairs are a great design and balance the bulkiness of the china cabinet well. 

 

When I saw this photo I immediately thought of a weekend brunch sitting next to these large windows. Coffee, tea, scones, and a full breakfast assortment to share with a handful of close to friends.

Johanna Ortiz – Exclusive On Your Horizon One-Shoulder Cotton Midi Dress | Aje – Overture Laced Ballet Maxi Dress

 

A fall brunch calls for a pop of warm color. This one-shoulder Johanna Ortiz dress is the perfect pick for a dressy brunch. The shape is very formal but, the color and fabric add just the right amount of casual to the dress. The voluminous sleeve creates a beautiful shape in conjunction with the end of the dress.

 

If orange isn’t your thing this white Aje dress is a great option. This dress also is the perfect combination of dressy + casual. The bold shoulders/arms are very in style and create a shape that highlights your waist! I love the smooth silhouette.

A CHIC LUNCH

This view of the dining room is much grander. The chandelier, high ceilings, and molding create a luxurious feeling. The two tall windows are perfectly framed by floor-length curtains and cast a sensational light onto the dining room table. The small painting between the windows adds the perfect touch of color and art to the room.

 

When looking at this image I think of a relaxing long afternoon lunch with family or friends. Snacking on a variety of salads, sandwiches, and a light dessert while catching up.

Sea – Monet Floral-Print Cotton-Poplin Midi Dress | Saloni – Bianca Baroque-Print Silk Midi Dress

 

A late afternoon lunch is relaxing and energizing. I knew these dresses had to have a bit more excitement to them – more of a statement. The midi dress with statement sleeve is a huge trend right now with good reason – it looks amazing on everyone. 

 

First up a floral print dress by Sea. The mix of light pink and a bold pink is amazing in this dress. The pattern and color combination is so eye-catching! The higher neckline and sleeves make this dress a bit more formal. The second dress is a darling patterned dress by Saloni. I love the silhouette. It looks like it accentuates the waist area beautifully. The mix of green and pink creates an interesting and subtle pattern combination. Both of these dresses would look amazing with booties, kitten heels, or sneakers.

A DRESSY DINNER PARTY

On the other side of the dining room is a formal fireplace. The all-white fireplace looks incredible in contrast to the painting, decor, and interior of the fireplace. The molding has a simple and regal look. The blue and yellow tile flooring add an interesting twist to the room by providing some color and pattern. This small hint really livens up the area.

 

Looking at this area I immediately think about sipping some elaborate cocktails in front of the fireplace before a dressy dinner party with friends. A great space to catch up and unwind while snacking on some appetizers.

Proenza Schouler -Printed Silk-Blend Midi Dress | Johanna Ortiz – Ring of Fire Cotton – Blend Maxi Shirt Dress

 

For the dinner portion, these dresses are a bit more formal but equally as fun! First up is a long sleeve piece from Proenza Schouler. The colors and pattern of this dress are exciting and luxurious. The mock turtle neck and slim bodice give this dress a refined look. 

 

Next up is a stunning dress from Johanna Ortiz. This maxi shirt dress becomes formal thanks to the sheen of the fabric and the detail of the garment. The v-neck followed by a tie creates a focal point. The statement long sleeves also add a layer of drama to this dress. Both of these dresses would look incredible with a classis heel!

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.

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. 🤎
