latest obsession: chevron table accents
As a former event planner, I've seen many a table accent (and designed too many looks to count!), but I am absolutely loving the fresh touch a bright, chevron napkin brings to an event look. It's modern with a touch of whimsy, but still classic with its graphic, preppy print. I love this touch because its just as appropriate for a fun birthday party or shower as it is for a modern, chic wedding. Whether its on placemats, napkins, or runners, chevron is definitely the perfect table staple to update your look. I'm currently on the lookout for colorful chevron cocktail napkins for my next hostess gift. Now to choose a color (decisions, decisions!)...

[interior] infatuation: madeline weinrib

Bold prints and Ikat are nothing new; however, I will always be mesmerized by both. There's something about vibrant color layered and interpretted into lively patterns that will always make me happy. Pucci, Lilly Pulitzer, Diane von Furstenberg, and the likes have all lent a bold whimsy to their designs through delicious, color-drenched prints, while still reflecting their daring visions tastefully. Artist and designer, Madeline Weinrib, added herself to the list when she started designing carpets in 1998. As the grand-daughter of ABC Carpet & Home founder, Max Weinrib, its safe to say that Madeline is practically interior design royalty on her own, but it's her modern take on traditional prints that gave her a coveted spot on the 'must have' lists. At her 6th floor atelier at ABC Carpet & Home, Weinrib reinterprets the traditional with prints inspired by her travels abroad, and transforms them into fabulous pillows and rugs, unique furniture pieces, and accessories ranging from evening bags to table linens. I think its safe to say that if I had my way, I would probably cover my entire home (and self!) in Madeline's creations - here's a peek at just a few of her amazing designs...
