Effortless Chic

So I said I wasn't back to blogging, buuuut then I saw this room.  Bathroom, to be more precise.  Oh yes, I said bathroom.  I know, shut up...right?!?





See, bathroom!  Or as owner Miranda Brooks, a landscape designer and Vogue Contributing Editor (and wife to architect Bastien Halard, nephew of famed photographer Francois Halard), notes:



“It’s like a library/sitting room with a bathtub in it,” says Brooks. The hanging light is by Gerrit Rietveld. The bench is 18th-century Swedish and the curtains are made of indigo-dyed Japanese mosquito netting.



Yes, ma'am, I do concur.  And might I add, fabulous!  When I'm all grown up I want to live just like this.  True effortless chic.

  4. I bought the January Vogue just because I spied this lovely tucked in the back. Great minds think alike as Raina just posted this Brooklyn abode as well. I have a feeling this one will be popping up all over blogland and with good reason!
