Inspiring Design: Tori Mellott

I saw a blog post on the latest One Kings Lane "Tastemaker" Sale and I'm so happy to see that it's Tori Mellot. I don't know much about her but I know I love the spaces she has designed for herself.

One of my all-time favorite pictures that I ripped out of my Domino magazine's is this image:

I've had it in my binder for a couple years and I still LOVE it every time I come back to it. She has the perfect combination of fun/whimsical elements with a comfortable and almost classic vibe.

Moreover, the rest of this little apartment of hers was also perfectly done. Here is the kitchen:

She does such an amazing job of making the classic toile wallpaper look fresh and modern - right?

And, if you aren't impressed enough. Here was the image that the magazine ran as the "before" shot. I'm not a huge fan of purple but still, years later this doesn't seem like a "before" to me.

And, for good measure, two more lovely vignettes.

It's so cool to see how she used some of the same art pieces in different collages through-out these apartments.

Wallpaper (& a puppy)

I love this wallpaper! I perfect combo of classic damask and a bright color that makes it feel fun and modern.

It turns out that I have way too many wallpaper inspiration images for living in a rental.

I am also in love with the dog peaking into this room!

Bedroom Color Inspiration

When we moved into our new apartment I was thinking that our bedroom should be relaxing and simple but it's definitely lacking. Our bedroom does not have enough personality - the space needs some color and excitement!

We're a bit limited by space and because it's a rental but I'm gathering ideas.
Some inspiration pics are below (clearly I haven't settled on a style or color theme)

A dose of pink



I hardly ever where lipstick (and by hardly ever, I mean: I've never worn it out of the house while not in costume) However, this image of Gillian Zinser , (the surfer girl on 90210 for those of you who aren't tuning in weekly like me) has me dying to try bright pink lipstick.

How stunningly cool does she look! And her lipstick matches the stitching on her shirt?!
