HOUSE TOUR! - A DREAMY FRENCH HOUSE NEAR PARIS
I don’t know if it occurs to you too, but in this
time of the year I need to colour my life and everything that surrounds me,
from cushions to colorful rugs and bed sheets. While I love that cold
minimalist touch of summer interiors, I am more than convinced that warm hues
are just essential to me in winter and make me feel high –spirited and energetic.
And fall is just about warm colors, falling yellow leaves, brown nature,
foliage, dark green hues. That is why I just felt an uncontrallable push to
share this wonderful place. Today’s interior is the perfect representation of
fall. Its energetic vibes perfectly resonate with the season. There are no
white walls, every wall is painted and geometric shapes add that design touch
typical of the sixties and seventies, the playroom of the children is also and
without a doubt tinged with pastel and bold colors. The living room is a perfect fusion of rattan objects, modern and
contemporary furniture pieces along with unique contemporary paintings. Everything
in this place reflects its owner. And here we come to the most interesting part
of the post. As you all know I am a big fan of the lifestyle blog Insidecloset.
It is here where I find my dose of French inspiration and find some of th most beautiful French-styled apartments and
houses, owned and furnished by stylish and successful people. What I love most
about the blog is the selection of the people featured in it. The website reflects that style and what we call the French allure that French
people are so famous for. This wonderfully elegant house belongs to the founder
of Goodmoods, Julia Ruel-Dalmaison, a real source of inspiration for fashionable people. Julia lives here with her husband and her three children and
could you belive it ... even with a lot of chickens, a dog and a
cow. She lives with style and she knows about design don't you think?
Please enjoy the house tour and the site,
just as much I did!
Non
so se succede anche a voi, ma in questo periodo dell’anno sento il bisogno di
colorare quello che mi circonda e aggiungere tinte forti all’arredamento, a
cominciare dai cuscini, alle lenzuola fino ai tappeti. Ho bisogno di calore e
di sentirmi avvolta da un tessuto morbido vicino ad un camino scoppiettante. In
Autunno la natura diventa una tavolozza di colori energetici e vitaminici, è la
stagione per antonomasia dei colori caldi. Basta guardare gli alberi dei
parchi, le foglie gialle e marroni, le tinte di verde scuro della natura. Ecco
perché ho sentito quasi uno slancio irrefrenabile di condividere questa
meravigliosa casa alle porte di Parigi. Rappresenta semplicemente tutto ciò che
l’autunno porta con sé. E’ una casa allegra, colorata di tinte calde, dove ogni
parete è dipinta e decorata con motivi geometrici tipici degli anni sessanta e
settanta, ma senza per questo risultare démodé. Il soggiorno è una perfetta
fusione di mobili in rattan, divani dal design super contemporaneo e quadri
geometrici, insomma il mix perfetto di ogni casa tipicamente francese che sa
come riportare a nuova vita anche quei “pezzi” che molti occhi poco accorti e
poco avvezzi al design considererebbero fuori moda. Tutto in questa casa
riflette la sua proprietaria che di interior design sicuramente sa qualcosa. Si
tratta di Julie Ruel-Dalmaison, fondatrice di un cahier de tendences, quaderno
di tendenze e sito di pura ispirazione, Goodmoods, un punto di riferimento per
gli addetti al settore moda e arredamento. Julie vive qui con i tre figli, il
marito e l’avreste mai detto….. circondata da galline, una mucca e un cane. E
nonostante questi tocchi rurali, vive in grande stile, non credete? Godetevi il
tour!

Have a great fashionable week-end! 5 Fall outfits! Buon fine settimana all'insegna delle tendenze d'autunno
Hello everybody out there! Have you already done your wardrobe change? I have, but I realize, every year, that I just have to toss a bunch of things and replace them with new ones. That's why I always keep an eye on fashion. Today's post is a random choice of beautiful fall outfits, perfect for work and everyday life. A leather pencil skirt, a pleated long skirt and a belted blazer are just a must for the chilly season and most wonderful time of the year. Leaves falling from the tress, foliage phenomena making everything look so colorful and magical are the ingredients of autumn. Here in Rome, according to the weather forecast heavy rains are expecting on Sunday and today it is so windy and fall seems to be definitely here to stay. So, let's just have fun mixing and matching our favorite clothes and statement pieces. Never give up being comfortable in your clothes and let good taste be your guide. It just helps you feel a little bit empowered! Have a great week-end!
Ciao a tutti! Avete già fatto il cambio di stagione nei vostri armadi? Io l'ho fatto, ma per mia grande sorpresa ogni anno mi ritrovo con diverse cose da buttare e altre da sostituire, insomma una tragedia, come credo per molte di noi. E' buona norma pertanto tenere un occhio sulle nuove tendenze e soprattutto su quello che sta bene a noi, su tutto ciò che crediamo possa farci sentire un po' più sicure di noi stesse. La moda è uno di quegli ingredienti che hanno il potere di farti sentire meglio. Eccovi quindi una scelta di outfit autunnali che vanno bene per chiunque e che si contraddistinguono per combinazione di colori ed eleganza. La gonna dritta di pelle e quella plissettata lunga sono le mie preferite ultimamente. E poi che dire dei blazer con cintura e dei trench di pelle? Insomma, bastano pochi pezzi per fare la differenza. Ispiratevi e buon fine settimana a tutti!

Fall mood - Scandinavian home tour Mood autunnale - Casa scandinava
This small and warm light flooded house in Scandinavia gives me a real autumn feeling. Straw pendants that create such a warm light in every corner of the house, neautral carpets, that beautiful modern fireplace, the pastel blue gray shades are the quintessential elements of this autumn. It's a rainy day today, a typical fall day, it's chilly and gray and am longing for a some rest by the fireplace with a romantic story to read. It is a dream for the moment and let me please dream.... I leave yyou with this Scandinavian home tour but stay tuned for more in the next days! Have a great midweek!

Overstyling? No thanks - Home tour: Cap Ferret House
There is a prefix in English that I love. It’s “over”. I
hear it more and more often used in
different areas and domaines. The other day I stumbled onto an article by
Garance Doré on her beautiful blog, Atelier Doré, about overthinking. Dealing with your projects and future and
preventing yourself from overthinking and struggling about everyday issues can
you help live better. It is also used by actors who don’t like themselves when
they overact. Act and look natural and spontaneous is key to success in
Hollywood and it is sooooo difficult to achieve. And by the way, I think it can
also be key to keep yourself sane and safe in everyday life as well. That’s why great actors don’t overact.
Do you want more? Overdress is another interesting word
describing people who don’t know the value of hiding makeup and aren’t aware of
the beauty of looking natural and effortless.
Overstyle is our word of the day. While looking at
beautifully styled homes I very often find them a little bit too overstyled ,
lacking personality and history. Overstyling to me is choosing only brand new pieces
of furniture, sticking in a very unoriginal way to a trend, to a trendy color,
to exclusively contemporary furniture and so forth, which is exactly the
contrary of beautiful and well-achieved styling, mixing vintage, diy and design pieces and adding your own
history to your home.
French interiors just like French style and fashion is an
inspiration for effortless and beautiful
styling. Lately I have discovered a very beautiful site, Inside Closet, which
features beautiful houses, beautiful houses of successful women. Guess what I
love most? Their homes! They are simply gorgeous, without being overstyled and
overstructured. Give a look at this wonderful Cap Ferret house, in South France and then think
about how to avoid that “over” in your life.

Minimalist design - Mobili Fiver
Il design minimalista è uno dei trend più diffusi nella
decorazione e nel design di interni. Il suo successo è stato determinato
soprattutto dalle linee pulite, geometriche ed essenziali dei mobili che ne
definiscono lo stile. Una casa con pochi oggetti utili ma di facile e comodo
utilizzo è una casa facile da vivere, adatta alle attività quotidiane e
soprattutto adatta a diventare una casa aperta agli ospiti. La vita moderna
sempre più frenetica, dai ritmi sempre più serrati, ha reso il concetto minimalista
sempre più attuale e gli spazi in cui viviamo, ridotti in termini di spazio
calpestabile, impongono a noi generazioni e abitanti dei grandi centri urbani,
soluzioni di design sempre più pratiche e comode.
Lo stile minimalista è uno stile comodo da vivere ed è per
questo che mi piace e chi segue questo spazio web da un po’ di tempo, avrà
intuito che i fronzoli da Versailles e da musei barocchi non fanno per me.
Forse a piccolissime dosi, in qualche dettaglio decorativo, ma una casa in
stile museale, carica di colori e intarsi non rispecchia in nessun modo la mia
idea di interior design. Quando mi sono imbattuta nel catalogo di Mobili Fiver
sono rimasta davvero colpita dalla pulizia delle linee e dalla bellezza e comodità
dei loro mobili e soprattutto dalle consolle che in un batter d’occhio possono
trasformarsi in tavoli lunghi e adatti ad accogliere molti ospiti, pur in un
soggiorno piccolo. Il tavolo basso quadrato in diversi materiali del legno al
teak e al wengé e le consolle collocabili in un ingresso o nell’angolo di un
soggiorno o addirittura in camera da letto sono semplicemente tra le mie
preferite. Date uno sguardo al sito e scegliete comodamente da casa i vostri
pezzi preferiti https://www.mobilifiver.com/.
Minimalist design has become through the years, one of the
most widespread trends in interior decoration. It seems to be everywhere, in decoration
pieces, in the clear and geometric lines of house furniture pieces. I find
minimialist design functional, essential, edgy and low maintance, which is a
key element in my furniture choices. No engravings, no frills and above all no
dust. It is the ideal choice for contemporary hectic rhythms, the best and only
choice for small apartments that can easily transform into great places for big
parties and family activities. In a word, minimalist design can be a great
solution and not at all less creative than other styles. You can add different
pieces, colors or whatever baroque detail to it in order to mix styles and
obtain a more original result. It is far more easy to add color and creative
elements to a blank surface.
A folding table,
under the shape of a console can solve you a big problem just in case you want to
host a party or add dining chairs to your dining table. Not to talk about the beautiful low tables which look really
great in a zen minimalist style living. Mobili
Fiver is one of those revolutionary brands that can easily transform
contemporary living and facilitate the life of people living in small spaces
and urban cosmopolite centers. When I
stumbled upon Mobili Fiver I just was blown away by the essential lines of the
furniture this Italian brand commercializes. You sit on your comfy sofa and
order your favorite piece. Here are some pictures of my fave ones. Have a look at the Mobili Fiver catalogue and
then order whatever you like.mercoledì 1 agosto 2018
Mini home Tour: Paris apartment
There are places where you feel comfortable and at home the
moment you step in. That’s what I feel when I come across beautiful places like
this. And Paris has that particular flair that captures the attention of
everybody. In Paris you feel like stepping into an interior that carries
beauty, love for design, contemporary art and classical beauty. Architectural
design and styles from the different historical periods mix together in a perfect fusion that
gives life to that wonderful city that we all love. Flair and beauty is not
something that you can decide to create arbitrarily. We say Rome wasn’t built
in a day and cities like Paris and other historical European beauties are the
outcome of centuries of art, culture and let’s even say, revolutionary
upheavals. Today I want to share this small but very nice Paris apartment with
loads of light and the perfect mix of beautiful contemporary furniture, an airy open space living with a beautiful essential and minimalist dining area and bedroom. Please,
have a virtual tour of it while dreaming about Paris.
