The best thing about photo shoots…. are the left over flowers. A little iPad magazine interviewed me yesterday and took a few photos in my apartment… Nothing crazy, not like the Rue shoot which took all day… At the end of the day, I went around snapping photos…
Peony season is the best, isn’t it? See that metal container they are in? Its actually a cooking utensil holder from my kitchen. I left all my vases at the bachelor pad after the photo shoot, and so I had to improvise!
Herbs I bought from the farm the other day, and I plan on planting them in a terrarium, like last here. See HERE. (Sorry, I was directing you guys to a post with defunct photos. Trying to figure out what happened!)
Lilacs in an antique sterling pitcher that I received as a wedding gift. Another improvised happy accident.
A little shot of the room, and in case you need more evidence for the glory of black doors, I’ll post more pictures of those. Also note, baby cream on table, Cookie’s art on the wall in frames looks pretty good. BUT I have a massive piece coming for over there. Also, yes, I am a chair hoarder and it has to stop. Go ahead, buy my chairs! (Also, this photo is a little weird because it was so dark when I took the shot, walls look different than normal.)
Last, Kelly Wearstler pants that I paired with my favorite shoes ever by Prada and a black leather shirt. And incidentally this outfit took me from day to night, I wore it to a Decoded party.
I am SOOOOO not a photogenic person. I HATE having my photo taken, and in my family albums, it looks like I don’t exist (I take pictures of everyone else!)… but its kind of fun to be forced to do it. And I can’t wait to have an updated headshot that isn’t from when I was 8 months pregnant! (The only benefit to that is that faces look less wrinkly at 8 months pregnant.) I also made sure to have my hair curly for these photos.
So yea, can’t wait to see em!
(Also, there is this new site called Threadflip, I’m selling some clothes and DIY’s on it…)

How many things do I love in your apt?
Let’s see:
1) Fuchsia peonies-L O V E
2) Pair of nickel reading lamps on the table behind the sofa
3) Pair of white/black polka dotted chairs
4) Black doors
5) Classic patent Pradas with those KW pants
Okay I have serious envy now!!
Can’t wait to see the end result!! love the fresh flowers.
I mean, I like those chairs. A. Lot.
Too bad I don’t live in or near NYC
I never noticed your Venetian mirror before…..what a stunner?!?!
Love your outfit choice….and you are way too hard on yourself. You have a bangin body and are beautiful so shut up. But I also DETEST having my pic taken or seeing myself being filmed. All of my pictures I’m half blitzed….for some reason I don’t mind the camera after several cocktails. Even in my blog profile pic I’m semi bombed.
It has nothing to do with how I look (BUT THANK YOU!) It has to do with being self conscious taking pictures! I can’t relax my face, and end up looking weird! AND YES!!!! The best pictures of me are when Im slightly bombed at a party… easy natural smiles, instead of forced hid-tastic faces!
Right??? Cheers!
you look great! defientely take more photos of yourself, your gorgeous!
and also if you ever want to sell that pair of white chairs in your living room,
i will take em gladly!
Thank you!
im talking about the white ones with wood legs, mid century feel.
i think they were from room and board?
Not selling those at the moment, but I probably will be one day! Ill keep you posted.
Um, I totally want those polka dot chairs you recovered. The only problem is I might end up being the one looking like a chair hoarder. I do want to get rid of the Ikea couch and futon in the spare room, though…
Ok, how much?
Im emailing you, we need to discuss first.
The lilacs look great in that antique pitcher mixed with your more contemporary furniture… a very happy accident.
I love those standing lamps! I love that idea…its a new update on putting table lamps behind the sofa
