Valorie Hart in rue magazine - photo by Sara Essex Bradley - art work by Anne Harwell of Annechovie |
rue magazine did a wonderful feature of my design work! Being the quipster that I am, I say that I am the oldest thing they have ever put in the magazine.
Advanced Style - Buy this book |
Just think of the lifetime of collecting and experience that one accumulates by a certain age.
Nicole Cohen of Sketch42 regularly features photos of her grandmother's home that are absolutely beautiful and stylish. Her grandmother's home is one I would definitely include in my book "Advanced Decor".
I would put this in my book called Advanced Decor! via Sketch42 |
Read: Does Your Decor Tell Your Age |
The big fat gorgeous anniversary issue of House of Fifty |
And while you are reading magazines today go check out rue - It is a really good (and huge) issue.
Love the current cover of rue magazine - the young girls are playing granny dress-up! |

valorie, I have often had this exact same thought. my home and furnishings looked older when I was younger and now that I am older, I want my interior look to be younger. I have often posted about my heavy, southern, mahogany furniture and how I long to switch it up now for lighter and ligher-hearted pieces. Hard to do with a house full. But I am slowly getting there. this is a great piece you have written here, and for HOF, one of the better, more thoughtful pieces that I've seen recently.
ReplyDeleteyour fresh, individual style is inspiring. donna
