I vote for this photo to win “Best Drama” on this Academy Awards Sunday. It is a surprising pick (as are most of the Oscar choices usually)…it is simple, intriguing, tells a good story…yet keeps you wondering.
First, I want to thank Theresa Rowe, a Dallas based interior designer, for helping me along this Sunday. I wrongly identified this photo as a foyer. Well Theresa tells me it is actually a spot in top interior designer Windsor Smith’s master bath! Theresa says she is a friend of Windsor’s and has seen it first hand when visiting! Oops my editorial misidentification…but with this information from Theresa…this makes me love it even more.
A classic vignette…with pops of Hermes orange…a gilt table with marble top…a dramatic photo of woman in a ball gown descending a stair case with just the right bit of flamboyance…a complete picture…and I’m sure a wonderful story behind.
Best Drama. There you have it.
Clearly I live in Los Angeles…all I’m speaking in awards season speak. I’ll snap out of it tomorrow. Busy week this week for me…lots of fun dinners and people visiting from out to town. Maybe some intrigue too!
Happy Sunday!

Super fun post thx Coco!
the touch of orange makes this entrance vibrant, love it!
BRAVO!! I’ve always loved orange. It’s such a rich color. Then again…I love all colors. A punch of any color livens up a room.
Just adore orange!! Really wonderful!
I have a wonderful offering on my site!

I’ve always loved this host as well!! Didn’t remember that it was in the bathroom – makes it even more special I agree. I would give this an award any day!!
Love your creativity with this post! How fun, and I love that photo of the lady with the ball gown and orange wrap. Very chic and fun!
I’m really loving this vignette! Especially the console table & orange accents.

I love this console, does anyone know who made it?
I absolutely love this. I am going to try to create a variation on this for my entry way!
