here's a good story. yesterday i was checking one of my favorite blogs..
elements of style which had just posted about this stunning jewel of a house in the san juan islands near seattle. as i scanned the pictures with envy, i had a sinking feeling of dread that perhaps i knew the owners..having several friends who live out there. sure enough, merrill wright who comissioned this home is a friend of a friend and patron of my work!
even more annoying..dear friend
judith had just spent the weekend there! the nerve!
well it does give us the inside scoop..no? she reports that though the house is stunning, with piles of impeccable design taste..the house has it's imperfections! HAH!
we all know that the sun never shines in washington state..so judy says that the 3 days of the year it does come out..this spot will be magnifico!
what can i say..jealousy brings out the devil in me, by the way the sink below is ridunk.
this morning grabbing a cup o' joe i glance down at the style section in today's NYTimes, and noticed the new uber urban trend of wearing fur hats and fur boots, as well as, bulky sweaters with fur vests instead of a coat in the winter which they describe as now being too cumbersome! hey, try dragging this thing around town!
when i was at a stylish event last year in new canaan i must have seen 7 women sporting this confusing trend. i cannot figure out for the life of me how this look works. the times (the voice of "reason) explains that the look was pulled from the ski slopes..but if you ask me it is more from the lodge rather than from the hill...can you imagine trying to move in one of these things?
oh..and best of all..every time i look at the ladies in this "IT" look i can't stop thinking about satyrs and cave girls. really!! i am so confused..is this cute? no i say, put that thing down girls!
