<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I love checking in on <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><b><a href="http://www.vogue.com/">Vogue's</a>,</b></span> Five Days, Five Looks, One Girl, Fashion Feature. They often show and share creative types wardrobes so the lifestyle shots rarely (if ever) disappoint. I loved contributing Vogue photographer Clairborne Swanson Franks segment. Her daily choices are approachable and realistic but still very chic! I also love the small glimpse we get of her home. It appears equally cool, with doses of pattern, lucite and leopard. ( and notice the black dining table * see trash picker post a few days ago - it looks very similar to my missed find - damn! )<br />
<br />
I VERY much appreciate and love sassy heels and glamorous frocks with the best of them, but I'll be honest interior designers do A LOT of schlepping. On any given day I am usually dragging arm loads of bags, rugs and who know what else around the city. And when I'm not working I'm chasing two little ones. (no complaints on either front) The only time heels really work for me is A. for a client meeting that doesn't entail any labor and B. out for dinner and/or cocktails. (an absolute yes!)<br />

</div><div align="left" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">DIRECTIONS:</div><div align="left" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">1.Boil the water for the pasta. I used farfalle this time but anything really works. Penne is awesome with it because the cream gets inside the noodles ;) ;) I usually salt my pasta water once it boils.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">2. Saute the prosciutto with a little olive oil in a sauce pan for a few minutes</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">3. Add in the flour & saute it for another 3 or so</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">4. Slowly pour in the heavy cream & whisk it for a few minutes until it thickens. (I skipped the whisking part & it still worked.)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">5. Add in the chopped parsley, chives, and cooked edamame. Add a bunch of pepper.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">6. Add in the parmesan cheese & stir until it melts. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">7. Pour it over your freshly cooked pasta, serve and EAT! (I kept it separated from the pasta because I knew we'd have a lot of leftovers and I don't like it as much once the sauce & pasta have been sitting together for a day or so, but if you aren't planning on leftovers, go ahead & mix it all in with the pasta before serving.)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Which is why I'm so totally into pieces like these... <br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cocokelley/6859868070/" title="22518066856795324_AX8th9oM_f by coco+kelley, on Flickr"><img alt="22518066856795324_AX8th9oM_f" height="637" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7248/6859868070_05b2c5b2e9_o.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><br />A little desk made of golden sea horses with perfect little drawers? It might raise some eyebrows, but I love it. One can't take design so seriously all the time, and tucked into a little corner area, this piece would be so fun!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cocokelley/7005985755/" title="lonny.fish_table_4.7 by coco+kelley, on Flickr"><img alt="lonny.fish_table_4.7" height="652" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7063/7005985755_5b4d075683_o.png" width="500" /></a><br /><br />But if you'd like your golden sea creatures to be a bit more serious - perhaps an angry little fish table is more to your taste? Again, a perfect little accent to add interest to a room. I was seriously considering <a href="http://www.serenaandlily.com/Furnishings/Furniture-Girls-Rooms-Tables-Swan-Side-Table" target="_blank">this swan</a> as an option for my own home, or perhaps finding one of those ceramic or wicker elephants to spray gold? I love the idea of a little animal accent in the house!<br /><br /><br /><br /><i>*images via </i><a href="http://www.admagazine.fr/decoration/articles/la-derniere-folie-de-vincent-darre/12954" target="_blank"><i>AD france</i></a><i> and </i><a href="http://lonnymag.com/" target="_blank"><i>lonny mag</i></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5885723854587468375-6392331259081611686?l=cocokelley.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><br /><p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/GR35YC3XN4oRrzNeJv6Ooox1g8I/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/GR35YC3XN4oRrzNeJv6Ooox1g8I/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/GR35YC3XN4oRrzNeJv6Ooox1g8I/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/GR35YC3XN4oRrzNeJv6Ooox1g8I/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"><br /><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/mCAtj?a=rfRfTvCI2Gg:tPr4Q0VRTL4:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/mCAtj?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/mCAtj?a=rfRfTvCI2Gg:tPr4Q0VRTL4:4cEx4HpKnUU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/mCAtj?i=rfRfTvCI2Gg:tPr4Q0VRTL4:4cEx4HpKnUU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/mCAtj?a=rfRfTvCI2Gg:tPr4Q0VRTL4:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/mCAtj?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a><br /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/mCAtj/~4/rfRfTvCI2Gg" height="1" width="1"/>alexandria josephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06579821115765319694noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705641386584645712.post-2716117150033030352012-03-27T09:36:00.000-07:002012-03-27T18:45:41.740-07:00Cobalt!<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><br /><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK4QIjSK0zeEv5IE1y31CRZjs4VEvUl1pZaf3E0q6aNTcqvn19qk4zrWh3H5jIxRjYcvY0yh_17xAuyoXqc1-wJxIkQL4uunW0O_pONe8tnhlmPe_pwvftOzi-IvseIhLeWHQMvmVOMaE/s1600/72339137734130757_sAt3yJDA_f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK4QIjSK0zeEv5IE1y31CRZjs4VEvUl1pZaf3E0q6aNTcqvn19qk4zrWh3H5jIxRjYcvY0yh_17xAuyoXqc1-wJxIkQL4uunW0O_pONe8tnhlmPe_pwvftOzi-IvseIhLeWHQMvmVOMaE/s400/72339137734130757_sAt3yJDA_f.jpg" width="377" /></a></td></tr><br /><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I picked out a swatch for a client sofa yesterday, it's a deep cobalt blue velvet.

I had been following along with sneak peaks from her blog <a href="http://www.luxeandlucid.typepad.com/my-blog/2011/11/chez-huntley-update-1113.html">Luxe and Lucid</a> but full blown pics are so much better. Tricia's transformation of her midcentury home is full of chic, luxe goodness with classical elements throughout. Hope you enjoy seeing it as much as I did. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;">(First five photographs by Katherine Frey/The Washington Post)</span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgls_Gf3cquBAsQJn8mjKVCY2wS7JWvXOZ-hlnY2TstqQcKeJHohsCh1TaGY1CAATtKUc1JSDqrXM0wbhgnz6C_wX892PZAx9O8_V7yJaF2IDfVmtpkz95xv-pihrruLjqeHGE3Jm1r_zuc/s1600/thshelves.tiff" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgls_Gf3cquBAsQJn8mjKVCY2wS7JWvXOZ-hlnY2TstqQcKeJHohsCh1TaGY1CAATtKUc1JSDqrXM0wbhgnz6C_wX892PZAx9O8_V7yJaF2IDfVmtpkz95xv-pihrruLjqeHGE3Jm1r_zuc/s640/thshelves.tiff" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724547039766860626" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJoCj_u3Ga5c4A1MFCURkTed1ZsOYtVV45t8mXmMdGc-UGdKljikkVMxhzmExgPMRKudvanUA6kvbbVkNNOCsaUCI6-2AM9kHkqAUo7FhLN9aFrqPicdI71guWjZmFk7YIyDpITxLwBEeT/s1600/thsunroom.tiff" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJoCj_u3Ga5c4A1MFCURkTed1ZsOYtVV45t8mXmMdGc-UGdKljikkVMxhzmExgPMRKudvanUA6kvbbVkNNOCsaUCI6-2AM9kHkqAUo7FhLN9aFrqPicdI71guWjZmFk7YIyDpITxLwBEeT/s640/thsunroom.tiff" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724546951523714994" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgumDbgCjiY0yQYalcNKYGNkvG8Tu4JXvbyMz6MPb1I46MPobScmMChTRK3IjyJTDohKtgWAjhUdxvTE-uRsCC1nrYRwHDNsBhhK7zRmX_KKz5GXwaINjhZzFrYItITSgiRTmyMYtq3w4IE/s1600/thdroom2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724410531716458834" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgumDbgCjiY0yQYalcNKYGNkvG8Tu4JXvbyMz6MPb1I46MPobScmMChTRK3IjyJTDohKtgWAjhUdxvTE-uRsCC1nrYRwHDNsBhhK7zRmX_KKz5GXwaINjhZzFrYItITSgiRTmyMYtq3w4IE/s640/thdroom2.jpg" /></a><br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigAr7njc46ec8JtHhVzhhcJ2Hm242a9MJVPeVBztoTo-1swQe-UAbagCm_8pUthkCi-LICke7m6vhtnnkUCws6mZnqADGYEU3Fg5LK33wbj2u3Q55jL3munNzMyJZ5N7sKFWz0DUCzGtym/s1600/thpowederroom.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724409021043583058" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigAr7njc46ec8JtHhVzhhcJ2Hm242a9MJVPeVBztoTo-1swQe-UAbagCm_8pUthkCi-LICke7m6vhtnnkUCws6mZnqADGYEU3Fg5LK33wbj2u3Q55jL3munNzMyJZ5N7sKFWz0DUCzGtym/s640/thpowederroom.jpg" /></a> <div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#330000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Now that's a powder room! </span></span></b> More images from The Washington Post feature <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/realestate/designer-sticks-to-modern-homes-roots-but-adds-touch-of-classical-charm/2012/02/28/gIQAlsAgBS_story.html">here</a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8mwTdcERnEcHBFO6dl-Mq0BxzRBLD3JjTeYs5RQmeaZvYDKIijn-w94i_beiUL_5_LBPZozZcviHVj_kFCapDINzNOw9nllHUBrIQ7mTNJyiSQtSaQsi6DnnHaIcslGaz5S_oEJmEz0HZ/s1600/thsn.tiff" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8mwTdcERnEcHBFO6dl-Mq0BxzRBLD3JjTeYs5RQmeaZvYDKIijn-w94i_beiUL_5_LBPZozZcviHVj_kFCapDINzNOw9nllHUBrIQ7mTNJyiSQtSaQsi6DnnHaIcslGaz5S_oEJmEz0HZ/s640/thsn.tiff" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724549907424417362" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEcr-BdV11ww_8mGIYWOlbTlRMzpezbZbdwE4XXv3oIK-QlT5yfawauTNDXob3sxlbjeDpmnv_sygHYaB8WsC3uOxnXqCZVYzLOSsD4wF346PrLEkGfg6Sz3pHcBVO62uFEjdOsott5y1x/s1600/thsn2.tiff" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEcr-BdV11ww_8mGIYWOlbTlRMzpezbZbdwE4XXv3oIK-QlT5yfawauTNDXob3sxlbjeDpmnv_sygHYaB8WsC3uOxnXqCZVYzLOSsD4wF346PrLEkGfg6Sz3pHcBVO62uFEjdOsott5y1x/s640/thsn2.tiff" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724549813081630354" /></a>Detail pics by Tricia Huntley <a href="http://www.luxeandlucid.typepad.com/my-blog/2011/11/chez-huntley-update-1113.html">here</a>.

Being short <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(at 5'2")</span> </i>and somewhat curvy, I'm not always good at pulling this look off. The skirt has some fullness to it, though, and accentuates the waist quite nicely. But my favorite part about it is that I don't use it to dress up... I pair it with a basic tee. Just like this.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cocokelley/7005985497/" title="Frédéric Pinet for Marie Claire UK2 by coco+kelley, on Flickr"><img alt="Frédéric Pinet for Marie Claire UK2" height="631" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7084/7005985497_0b5e0ae7ce_o.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cocokelley/6859867714/" title="vogue uk freja in jil sander by coco+kelley, on Flickr"><img alt="vogue uk freja in jil sander" height="853" src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6116/6859867714_537a5ec0ec_o.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cocokelley/6859867764/" title="duskjacketattic2 by coco+kelley, on Flickr"><img alt="duskjacketattic2" height="653" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7263/6859867764_b42df6b31f_o.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><br />The difference is, since my skirt is white, the top gets to be more colorful and playful which draws the eye up<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"> (instead of the focus being my short legs, it's my longer torso!). </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;">I can't wait for the sun to emerge a bit around here so I can start wearing it again!

I also added the <a href="http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2011/04/gossip-girl-sconces.html">Gossip Girl sconces</a> into the arrangement, and that I'm totally loving. I think I might try DIYing some black conical shades. Though to get the sizing right I would need to buy a soldering iron which feels really intense for some reason. :) </div><div style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: center; "><img src="http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd246/jkomenda/album%202/32DSC_0005-1.jpg" /></div>alexandria josephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06579821115765319694noreply@blogger.com0
