I was so excited to get these gorgeous Greek key pillows, but unfortunately, at 24” they are just a tad too big for my loveseat. I wish that they could work on the larger sofa in my family room because I am <em>obsessed</em> with them. Alas, I am going to have a smaller pair made, but I’d love to see these beauties go to a good home. They are black linen, 24” square pillows with an ivory Greek key appliqué (down inserts included). The work is all done by hand and they are in pristine, new condition. I’d prefer to sell the pair together. Each pillow is $198 plus shipping. If you’re interested, email me at <a href="mailto:paloma@palomacontreras.com">paloma@palomacontreras.com</a>.

This week, our “Fabulous Room” is a chic bedroom designed by <a href="http://www.robertpassal.com">Robert Passal</a>. The space is warm, romantic, and sophisticated with its bold yellow walls and drapes. I love that Passal opted for such a bold color palette—yellow, moss green, navy, and orange, yet he executed it in a way that doesn’t feel at all overwhelming but rather rich and tailored. There are several statement pieces throughout the room from the oversized antique brass lantern and playful ottomans to the gorgeous tufted moss velvet chair (love it!) and the haunting artwork. Because Passal is based in New York, I would venture to say that this home is in New York, but it seems to have a very Southern sensibility, wouldn’t you say? I could totally picture this room in a home in New Orleans’ Garden District or perhaps in Charleston thanks to the architecture of the space and the mix of formality and cheekiness of the room’s design. Fabulous indeed!<a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-cLvOMZ0hB_k/UkWa-CGL4FI/AAAAAAAAcE4/SxQ_k7LY5no/s1600-h/Snip20130927_74%25255B4%25255D.png"><img alt="Snip20130927_74" border="0" height="712" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-kjItp9zviP0/UkWbBG0eKPI/AAAAAAAAcFA/RB2_zrBlzNA/Snip20130927_74_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-bottom: 0px; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; display: block; margin-right: auto" title="Snip20130927_74" width="590" /></a> <a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-zMghRQ5cVeE/UkWbCrLlrqI/AAAAAAAAcFI/3LRN1OcS53w/s1600-h/Snip20130927_72%25255B4%25255D.png"><img alt="Snip20130927_72" border="0" height="726" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-X4PPxtesO1k/UkWbF9L2edI/AAAAAAAAcFQ/nZjsdLZ7w5k/Snip20130927_72_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-bottom: 0px; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; display: block; margin-right: auto" title="Snip20130927_72" width="590" /></a></p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-dqsBYT6Ahcg/UkWbHoRf11I/AAAAAAAAcFY/l_HeMxW5JCE/s1600-h/Snip20130927_75%25255B4%25255D.png"><img alt="Snip20130927_75" border="0" height="726" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-cb6v88lPAio/UkWbKhIRy_I/AAAAAAAAcFg/ntZ7AblPN24/Snip20130927_75_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-bottom: 0px; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; display: block; margin-right: auto" title="Snip20130927_75" width="590" /></a> </p> <p>If you love <a href="http://www.robertpassal.com">Robert Passal’s</a> style as much as I do, be sure to check out his <a href="https://www.onekingslane.com/sales/24330?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=viralshare&utm_campaign=like">Tastemaker Tag Sale on One Kings Lane</a> this Sunday.

For this Jet Set post I decided to take us to the city of Santa Monica, California. What I like about Santa Monica is that it's not only incredibly beautiful, but also the perfect transition location from summer to fall. The Huntley Hotel is a luxury hotel located near the beaches of Santa Monica. During the summer months I'd prefer a hotel right on the beach, but during this time of the year I don't mind the walk, especially since the hotel is located right next to shopping and restaurants. (<b>ABOVE</b>) I love the entry way of the hotel. It's very grand and has a strong sense of California design. If you look at the center building, you'll notice the elevator which has views of the outdoors. I'd be a little nervous taking the elevator during a storm!</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; color: #232323"></span></div> <table class="tr-caption-container" style="text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"><tbody> <tr> <td style="text-align: center"><a style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" href="http://i.picresize.com/images/2013/09/24/mikFH.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="http://i.picresize.com/images/2013/09/24/mikFH.jpg" /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small"><a href="http://cdn.lightgalleries.net/4bd5ec1094f9b/images/New_Lobby_High_Res-2.jpg" target="_blank">http://cdn.lightgalleries.net</a> 1</span></td> </tr> </tbody></table> <div style="text-align: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; color: #232323"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; font-family: skia; color: black"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; color: #232323">(</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; color: #232323"><b>1</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; color: #232323">) The lobby is full of unique pieces that feel both modern and retro.

In the case of Danielle Benson, owner of <a href="http://shop.hausofmason.com/main.sc">Haus of Mason</a> and Anna Kohler of <a href="http://www.mychicnest.com">My Chic Nest</a>, their collaboration has resulted in some fabulous design inspiration for anyone looking to spruce up their home. <a href="http://shop.hausofmason.com/main.sc">Haus of Mason</a> offers a beautifully curated assortment of accessories, rugs, bedding, lighting, art, accent furniture, and vintage finds along with custom drapes and pillows. <a href="http://www.mychicnest.com">My Chic Nest</a> is a brand “dedicated to creating timeless, unexpected and high-quality designs that are accessible to all of us.” My Chic Nest offers furniture inspired by several design periods—Art Deco, Hollywood Regency and anything in between. Best of all, <a href="http://www.mychicnest.com">My Chic Nest</a> offers “chic décor to the masses—for a song”. </p> <p>Danielle and Anna recognized that their customers are very similar and could benefit from seeing how their various pieces worked together, so they culled their design expertise and experience in the furniture and decorative accessories industry to create a series of ten beautifully-designed spaces using upholstery from <a href="http://www.mychicnest.com">My Chic Nest</a> and furniture, lighting, and accessories from <a href="http://shop.hausofmason.com/main.sc">Haus of Mason</a> resulting in <a href="http://shop.hausofmason.com/Chic-Haus_c36.htm">Chic Haus</a>. You can use the <a href="http://shop.hausofmason.com/Chic-Haus_c36.htm">Chic Haus</a> vignettes as inspiration and select individual items from them or you can buy the entire professionally-designed set-up. If you recently moved and are working with a blank slate or if you want to do a big design overhaul, but don’t know where to start and don’t have the budget to hire a designer, look no further than these ten stylish, ready-to-go vignettes!  These are just a few of my favorites.

Style Spotting: Black, White, and Pink

<div style="text-align: center;">Hi La Dolce Vita readers, it's Lindsay from <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.thepursuitofstyle.com" target="_blank">The Pursuit of Style</a> and I'm back with another edition of Style Spotting. When I was searching for inspiration for this month's post I looked back at my <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/thepursuitstyle" target="_blank">recent pins</a> and noticed a pattern almost immediately: black, white, and pops of hot pink.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The equation couldn't be more simple or the results more chic. Just add a hot pink element to a predominately neutral room and watch how it transforms the space. The perfect balance of playfulness and sophistication. If you need inspiration look to the offices of <a href="http://www.lonny.com/Office+Makeover+with+Ruby+Press/articles/EPyqfhbxo5L/Use+Rugs+to+Define+a+Space" target="_blank">Ruby Press</a> and <a href="http://theneotraditionalist.com/2013/06/26/house-of-herrera/" target="_blank">Carolina Herrera</a>--they're killing it!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/CCaMiQnZtU5l.jpg"><img alt="Ruby Press | Lonny" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8374" height="394" src="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/CCaMiQnZtU5l.jpg" width="590" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/carolina-herrera-office.jpg"><img alt="Carolina Herrera's Office" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8376" height="590" src="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/carolina-herrera-office.jpg" width="590" /></a>Once you've added some hot pink to your home, go ahead and dress up your basic black and white outfit with a shock of hot pink too. The same equation applies.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/stylespotting.jpg"><img alt="Style Spotting | The Pursuit of Style" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8377" height="522" src="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/stylespotting.jpg" width="589" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Love the looks above? Here are a few suggestions to help you achieve them. The Sabrina coat is at the top of my wish list! It's the <em>perfect </em>shade of hot pink.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/stylespotting1.jpg"><img alt="Style Spotting" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8382" height="748" src="http://www.thepursuitofstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/stylespotting1.jpg" width="590" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://bit.ly/15Q2jd6" target="_blank">Souk Wool Rug</a> | <a href="http://bit.ly/15nnMvM" target="_blank">Double-Cloth Sabrina Coat</a> | <a href="http://bit.ly/15nkeUV" target="_blank">Bayswater Bag</a> | <a href="http://www.shopsocietysocial.com/products/chelsea-wing-chair" target="_blank">Chelsea Wing Chair</a></div><div style="text-align: center;">I hope you enjoyed this month's edition of style spotting. Be back next month!</div>

LDV Top 10: Fall Booties

<p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-mWIPts44fX8/UkCiAVqSTQI/AAAAAAAAcAY/by1sNV6ggvM/s1600-h/booties%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img alt="booties" border="0" height="768" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-A5-0gEfW7mM/UkCiBEyhW9I/AAAAAAAAcAg/0gVJGlVl42Q/booties_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-bottom: 0px; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; display: block; margin-right: auto" title="booties" width="512" /></a></p> <p>Fall is officially here! Miraculously, it has actually felt like it in Houston the past few mornings. Fall is my favorite season and my fall clothes are my favorite clothes to wear, though the season is rather short lived here. Although it is still fairly warm, I have started to break out my booties. As much as I love riding boots for comfort and polished style, booties are fun and are usually a bit more edgy. I’ve rounded up the booties I am currently lusting after this season. You’ll notice I included some classic laidback style staples like Rosie Huntington Whitely is famous for wearing along with a few more polished styles more similar to the pair Olivia Palermo has on below. Which pair makes your heart go pitter-patter?

We took several hundred photos and I uploaded quite a few of them to Facebook, but I wanted to share a more edited version with you guys, showing some of the highlights of our trip. The first time we went to London in September of 2009, we really lucked out with the weather-- think 70 degrees and sunny everyday without a drop of rain. We didn't get quite as lucky on this trip and with the exception of a few glimpses of sun here and there, we experienced quintessential London weather-- cold and rainy throughout our trip. Luckily, we were prepared and we were in one of our favorite cities in the world, so we didn't let the damp weather put a damper on our fun! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We saw a lot of London's famous sights and enjoyed a more relaxed pace this time around. Highlights of our trip include a visit to the Victoria & Albert Museum which skyrocketed to the top of my list of favorite museums, afternoon tea at The Wolesely-- a gorgeous restaurant designed by David Collins and housed in an historic building, shopping at Liberty of London and Fortnum & Mason, partaking in pub life, and a second visit to the Tower of London. I am always blown away by the elegant architecture throughout the city, the rich history everywhere you turn, and the cleanliness of this vibrant metropolis, made even better in a time when William, Kate, and Prince George are at the height of their popularity. Fabian and I had a wonderful trip and look forward to visiting London again in the future!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
