Fashion+Decor = [BROWN+GOLD]

Pantone is the "Ruler" of all colors.  When they say French Roast & Honey Gold are colors for this Fall, that's what we will see.

Today's Monday Mashup math lesson is Michael Kors + Mark Gillette Interior Design = [Brown & GOLD]

A warm neutral palette not just for fall, but can stay year round. 

All day I will be sharing Michael Kors style on 

Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter & Olioboard.

A talented Designer with amazing style showing us how to go [Brown & GOLD].

Of course all week I will share more [Brown & GOLD] Interior Design via social media. 

Last week I mentioned a Blogging opportunity coming up...

Beginning October 8th, Snob Interior Design is part of a Blog Hop on Olioboard. Joining about ten other bloggers on the topic of DECOR+FASHION.  Perfect, don't you think?! 

Have you started decorating for Fall yet.  If not, perhaps my focus on [Brown & GOLD] will inspire you. 

For more Fall Decor Inspiration one of my favorite bloggers and friend, Lynda Quintero-Davids of Focal Point Styling, has been all about welcoming fall.  If you are not inspired yet you will be after you see her blog posts, I assure you! 

Fall into a great week!

What Color of Blue are You?

As we continue our focus on [BLUE] Royalty and Fashion Week, I'd like to share a few galleries I have created on Olioboard.

First, take a look at a Lighting Gallery created with products from IKEA.

My inspiration behind this gallery comes from the True Blue Collection only offered at limited IKEA locations.  Each piece shown above is from IKEA and can be found online.

Next is a paint gallery filled with blue colors from Benjamin Moore for you to choose from.  Which collection of blues is your favorite, four to choose from?  Each accessory item, including the upholstered bench you see, is from West Elm. 

How about a little cushion?  Featured is a Pillow Wall I created on Olioboard with an online company called Wayfair. Their mission is To make Wayfair your favorite place online to buy anything for your home.

Finally, choose your favorite fabrics for custom details that cannot be found anywhere else.

Fabrics & trims from Wesco Fabrics, Fabricut and Kravet. 

Choose your top fabrics picks to coordinate perfectly with paint colors, lighting and pillows.  Bring new life to a space in your home with these four options.  It doesn't have to cost a fortune, just a little bit time & inspiration. 

Now a little more fashion. Yesterday was the final day of Fashion Week NYC.  Below I'm sharing two more runway photos featuring [BLUE] Royalty.

To see more runway fashions, go to FB and Pinterest.

On a different note:

This week I had the opportunity to join in on a Twitter Chat with kbtribe, led by lighting expert & designer James Bedell.  James is based in New York City and launched JPB Lighting in 2011, an independent lighting design firm specializing in special events such as theatrical productions & launch parties for major corporations. The lighting industry is a facsinating one, evolving as quickly or quicker as the computer world.  I look forward to sharing about lighting in future posts. 

Also, I am really excited to share news about an upcoming blogging feature for the month of October that Snob Interior Design is participating in.  Details will follow as soon as I have them. 

Have a Fantastic Friday!

Interior Design is in Style with [BLUE] Royalty

This weeks post of Monday Mashup is [BLUE] Royalty.

A beautiful blue velvet tufted sofa paired with a sketch I worked on in College for my Apparel Design Degree. 

Funny how fashion and colors come back around. 

Tufted velvet is so hard to resist, gorgeous!  The colorful books on the shelves are the perfect balance for a contemporary piece hanging on the back of the door. 

Now typically my pairing is a little more professional than the model a green dress with a neat plaid jacket.  While perusing photos of fashion week, a few shots reminded me of college days and apparel design classes.  Seeing bright blues on the runway made me think of a particular assignment so many years ago of a design including lorem ipsum text for an ad. Feel like I've gone back in time.

Take a look at these runway shots...

Here are a few rooms from Lonny Magazine.

This week I will be sharing more designs with Olioboard adding to Style Files with a Lighting Gallery, Paint Gallery and an inspirational moodboard with [BLUE] Royalty.

Have a super week!

FASHION WEEK

Wednesday was the kick off of Fashion Week in NYC.

With a degree in Apparel Design this is very exciting for me!

So in honor of Fashion Week I have put together a fun mashup of home decor and fashions with Olioboard.

My inspiration comes from Marc Jacobs and his fall 2012 collection framed on the back wall.  Each model is wearing oversized hats interpreted with Possini pendant lights from Lamps Plus.  

The outfits on each mannequin come from Posh Girl Vintage, an online vintage store for women & men.

  

It has been a joy to follow along all social avenues of twitter, instagram, facebook and pinterest.  Great photos of runway collections and street fashions. 

I started pinning photos from Fashion Week on Pinterest.

The next post of Monday Mashup will be special in a personal sense.  But no spoilers, you'll have wait for Monday to see what I'm talking about. 

Have a super weekend!
