BaseCamp Hotel, Lake Tahoe

BaseCamp hotel, South Lake Tahoe

Spotted on Remodelista, this is the stylish BaseCamp Hotel located at South Lake Tahoe, California. BaseCamp is a new boutique (and green) hotel - handy to all the great trails, lakes and mountains that Tahoe has to offer.

"In April of 2011, Basecamp Founder Christian Strobel lamented the fact that there are no high style but affordable hotels that embody the spirit of exploration. They wanted to build a hotel reflecting the ideals of a base camp, a place where people can come together to share stories and exchange tips before heading out on their adventure. With the help of designer Elaine Cotter, they turned their vision into a stylish reality". Looks good to me.

Orange You Glad I Changed my Mind?

 My friend Rachel is going to love this post. While it has always been her favourite colour, I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I have never been a huge fan of orange. BUT THEN Pantone named Tangerine Tango as the 'it' color of 2012 and suddenly I was seeing orange everywhere...and surprisingly, I didn't hate it. In fact...I was kind of loving it. I was particularly head over heels in the June issue of Style at Home magazine when I came across Marlie Waks's condo. Her living room and bedroom, splashed with fun orange accents, is invigorating, girly, fun and fresh.

Isn't it gorgeous? The hot pink with the bright orange is the ultimate combo. It reminds me of grapefruit and summer and fancy drinks and all things bright and happy.

So, orange you glad I changed my mind about this hue? I have interior design to thank for keeping my mind open, for inspiring me, and for introducing me to new looks and ideas everyday.

Are YOU a fan? How would you incorporate it into your house?

Dining Room with a Dash of Orange

Love everything about this simple dining room - the white walls, the Nelson pendant light, the orange Eames chairs and the painting. What a great combination.
