I just bought a pair of black crocodile print Ann Marino pumps, they are gorgeous! And now, not only can I implement this great shiny smooth texture in my wardrobe, but in home decor as well. The Crocodile Decor Tiles come in numerous colors like black, white, even purple. The large size of each porcelain ceramic tile allows the pattern of scales to appear extremely realistic. $75 each (and more for some colors).

Wedding season is coming up and brides everywhere are looking for ways to add pretty touches for the main event! If you decide to serve cupcakes with or in lieu of a cake, consider these pretty Filigree Cupcake Wrappers. If you like the sophistication of damask and scrolls, then these laser cut liners are perfect! Other styles are available as well, like stars or butterflies.

They are available in other colors too, like chocolate brown or black.

"Frames" by Taylor & Wood is an interactive wallpaper that you can customize by placing your own images or drawings in each of the framed boxes. Fun for a kids room, or any playful living space in your home. This would be a great wallpaper for your mudroom/ family comunication center; just keep a stack of colored post-its and markers for family members to leave messages in the frames. Get creative and emblazen a favorite quote, or take out those Prismacolor Markers and let loose.

If you want a wallpaper with a more detailed and intricate choice of frames, I love "Familjen" framed wallpaper by Lisa Bengtsson! This wallpaper looks a tad more substantial with classic oval and rectangular frames in heavier lines.

What do you get when you mix a brand marketing pro, and an executive from a successful hotel group? -A fantastic idea! "Meet at the Apartment" is a space in downtown New York meant for business meetings and the like. Need a haute spot to launch an idea, talk to clients, pitch your homerun? This meeting spot is a fantastic concept, especially in a world of home offices. Whatever the case, or reason, this place is sure to impress. Here is the exterior.

The neighborhood. By the by, notice the spiraled and vine-like graphics on the front windows? I am guessing that is a custom wall stick?

The Parlour. This space is outfitted with a 65" presentation screen, iMac workstation, and conferencing system. I just love the deep black and pink wallpaper and oh that chair!!!! Do you recognize it? That is the smoke chair!

The Library. Fun high-back chairs don't you think?

The kitchen. The stark contrast of the white is actually really nice, it helps balance out the intense dark colors through-out the majority of the rest of the space. It is also fully stocked with candy and drinks. There is nothing like a sugar rush to get the creative juices going!
