Bedroom Decorating Love
Antiquarian prints hanging unframed on the walls, recessed bookcases full of leather bindings, the bench with linen cushion at the foot of the bed, the bed hangings, the upholstered headboard, the lamps. I love it all. Absolute perfection.

I always look forward to seeing the gowns at The Oscars. Maybe we'll see some vintage Chanel tonight. Hope so.

Nantucket Seaside Retreat
On Nantucket, Massachusetts, a couple commissioned Botticelli and Pohl Architects + interior designer Elissa Cullman to create their seaside retreat. That's some staircase down to the sea, isn't it?
Photos: Architectural Digest. See slideshow.
Walk or Slide?
Fabulous Entrance
Wow. Just look at the entrance to this place. Love the big shaped bushes and benches lining the drive too. Wish I could see more of the house. Looks as if there's a party going on with the tents outside. How many lifetimes would it take for new plantings to get this tall?
