{at home with : tory burch, southampton}

. . . still more to come today, but laily has just sent along this glimpse of tory burch's weekend home in southhampton -- a collaboration with architect & designer daniel romualdez, [whose work you may remember here] and decorator eve hood, there is something so warm and bright, and a little romantic about it all, especially in the living room, [top], at one end of the home's former ballroom, with its coral-coloured curtains and chintz-covered sofa . . .

{storage inspiration: silver trays & julep cups}

. . . whether gold leaf or silver, seem to be on the topic of trays quite a bit recently, for storage and for display, whether it is used for a few favourite scents [above], or an array of beautiful compacts [below], everything always seems a little more refined when displayed on an elegant tray . . .





. . . and currently, make-up brushes, touche éclat, q-tips, and tortoise-shell combs reside in finished diptyque glass candle holders, but perhaps, julep cups in silver and gold may be a lovely change . . .
