Read MoreGaga for new Designers Guild
Via Olioboard I have a new fabric crush…Designers Guild Pandora in Peony. Oversized flowers in vivid colors punctuate the entire 55" width. I would go wild with this including more black and white stripe wallpaper, leopard carpet, chartreuse accessories, violet lamps, and a neutral mid century sofa. LOVE this wild scheme! Check out the whole collection here…It certainly has some other highlights including the Saraille ombre wallpaper panels. What is this with me being drawn to flowers? Maybe Chintz is returning after all… Happy Humpday! Please make sure you "like" The English Room...

I pre-ordered from Moda Operandi. Rachel Zoe Bootcut leather pants…a must. B Brian Atwood Fringe Boots Snakeskin print silk maxi dress...

As you can gather I am a sucker for animals…all of them. I have noticed a tiger theme occurring in design recently (and my son has a project due on Bengal tigers). Here are a few favorites. This hand painted pillow from John Robshaw is so fun. A painting from John Robshaw. Waylande Gregory pottery is so chic. More Waylande Gregory, all available through The English Room. A cool tiger evening gown from Marchesa via Bergdorf Goodman. A vintage David Webb bauble….Bananas! This cuff is "to die"… An Alexander McQueen Cape from Barneys last fall I wish I had bought. So good with leather leggings. Another McQueen clutch. You can...
