This chair, Kadrega, is one of the many great designs by Ubbens. Ubbens has worked with many world famous designers such as Michele de Lucchi. IM A FAN! 🙂

AARON R. THOMAS
PROOF THAT MODERN AND CLASSIC CAN SIT COMFORTABLY TOGETHER…
This chair by American designer Aaron R. Thomas is a playful homage to Philippe Starck’s classic ‘Ghost’ chair. Made in acrylic, it is called the ‘Deconstucted Louis Chair’ and costs $3,150 USD. I think it’s cool….

MY CUSHION

CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN'S SHOES
A couple of people have pointed out the striking similarity between the antique embroidered cushion in my Marie Antoinette-inspired boudoir and Monsieur Louboutin’s fabulous yellow embroidered shoes. Surely such beautiful shoes should have an equally beautiful cushion on which to rest when not in use… I am looking forward to my complimentary pair from Maison Louboutin.

PERFECTLY DIVINE IN MY LOBBY...
I love mixing old with new and couldn’t resist including something on this pair of fantastic Venetian ‘Grotto’ chairs available from smart New York based dealers Newel. They are $37,500 USD, which personally I think is rather reasonable. Enjoy!
