THE LITTLE GREY SOFA

I think we all have realized by now that Grey has become the new Black and that we are using this color more and more in our homes and in our wardrobes. I'd like to think that owning a substantial piece of furniture, like a sofa for example, in grey is similar to owning "the little black dress".  Because "the little black dress" has become the staple of any woman's wardrobe, ideally is should be as simple as possible.  Therefore my analogy to "the little grey sofa" stands true in that it is versatile in many ways and it can certainly accommodate any decor style.  

A grey sofa that I particularly love is Jonathan Adler's Malibu Sofa.  I think this sofa, like "the little black dress" is casual yet elegant and can be dressed up or down depending on the decor.  I like that it has a retro feel while maintaining a classic modernistic value.

I've designed three mood boards to help you visualize how one sofa can be used in three different design styles.  If you owned this sofa, how would you use it and in what decor style?

I HEART THIS ART

Every now and then, I come across some amazing pieces of art from artists and photographers alike, and since recently I haven't been able to put this particular photographer and her work out of my mind.  I am a little surprised that I would fall so hard because her style is not something that I would usually gravitate to, but she has captivated me with her stunning and powerful photography.  The artist in question is none other than Stephanie Vovas.  She is a true genius.  The color of her photography is incredible and I love the feeling each image evokes.  Most of her work is infused with a 70's vibe which really resonates with my love for retro design.  Stephanie's photography has truly won me over and owning one of her prints has become an absolute must have in my home. You can view her spectacular collection here.
