Get inspired by fall’s color trends!  Pantone, the global authority on color, produced a palette seen splashed across New York fashion week.

Take a cue from the runways for your personal and home style.  Endive, golden glow, living coral, lipstick red, purple orchid, chocolate truffle, lagoon, woodbine, oyster gray, and rose dust give a great contrast and freshen up a room.

Ooo-la-la, ombre

From fashion to hair to home decor, ombre is one of the summer's hot trends. Often referred to as "dip-dye", ombre is a French term meaning "shaded" and usually graduates from a lighter shade of color to a darker one. The trend had its debut on the runway in 2007 at the shows of top designers like Prada and Alberta Ferretti. In 2010, ombre is still going strong. Clothing brands like Lucky have fun and flirty styles in their summer lines, celebrities like Lauren Conrad and Rachel Bilson are rocking subtle dark-on-top, light-on-bottom reverse ombre hair styles, and Samuel and Sons - industry leaders in trimming and more - brings the trend home with their Aquarelle line of tassels.

Brutally Honest Gifts

We are excited to welcome our newest client Naughty Betty! Naughty Betty’s mission is to combine cool design and insightful, funny truths to bring women what creators Christine Montaquila and Courtney Weinberg call “the brutal truth all prettied up.” Montaquila and Weinberg both worked in advertising before launching Naughty Betty greeting cards in 2006. The two have worked on many women’s brands including Dove’s Campaign for Real Beauty.

Naughty Betty products, which range from wine glasses and cocktail napkins to memo pads and cuffs, all don sayings like “Thank God there’s a pill for everything” and “If forty is the new twenty cellulite must be the new tattoo.” To see more, check out the Inviting Company.

Stylish Enough for Sex and the City

Congratulations to our client Charles P. Rogers, who’s sleek and stylish Campaign Canopy bed was chosen for the Sex and the City movie again! The hand crafted wrought iron Campaign Canopy bed made it’s first appearance in the first Sex and the City movie in Charlotte’s bedroom (recall the slumber party scene the night before Carrie and Big’s wedding). The same bed was chosen again for Charlotte Sex and the City 2. Be sure to look for it in the movie, in theaters now.
