Bellarmine Showhouse

(Side Room)

(Foyer)

(Living Room)

(Bar Area)

So excited for this! Bellarmine Showhouse is an annual event where local designers display their talent by designing a space, and my mother's store Details Fabulous Designs always participates. This year she gave the project to Julia and I! So above are a few images of the space we made our own. Lucite, leather, fur, yummy creams & golds, venetian mirrors, mixed with traditional pieces such as the living room & entryway tables. We love the soft chic feel of the rooms...so proud of us!
Oh, and of course there is a bar. Duh.

Gaga & Mini Me



While in NYC this past week, Cassie was a lucky girl. Our friend Brandon works with Nicola Formichetti, stylist to Lady Gaga, among others. Mui Mui had gifted Gaga with these fabulous bow covered maryjanes, but sadly she passed. Obviously, Brandon will not be wearing them so he also passed landing them in the hands of Cassie. She wore them out for our little jaunt to Williamsburg to meet some friends for dinner...turned out to be not so little of a trip & multiple stumblings occurred. (7 inches here) She swore she had a pair just like without the bows...above are the look-a-likes pictures. We died over the size difference & had to photograph. So sad they do not fit me... :( but glad they fit someone I love! You rocked it Cassie!

Hats Off To You

Julia & I made a semi-mistake by stopping into our fave vintage shop Nitty Gritty...damage was done, per usual. Julia snatched up this yummy little morsel of a hat...beaded in beautiful pastels. Love. I scooped up a long leopard fur coat, a yellow & green bell sleeve mini, a few others...will post photos soon. But for now, just Julia...glad you are back in your hat world. You live there so well.

A Little JJ For You

Last night Julia and I headed out to Bellarmine Showhouse for designer night. We are so proud of our rooms that we designed & I cannot believe I have yet to post photos so will do that asap! Anyways, we stepped outside for some fresh air with this handsome fellow & fellow designer. Jason has an incredible eye & his space at Bellarine is filled with goodies. One of which I scooped up. (a vintage gothic style mini chair with cowhide...yes please) We were having a very Zoe moment when he tried on the YSL & love it so that he pledged his allegiance to Yves Saint Laurent forever.

Typical Tuesday



Sad to say that I missed this escapade. Yesterday, Julia had some visitors at the store...Christy & Kate. (2 favorites) Christy has been majorly obsessed with Sisters of the Black Moon so they decided to do a little inspired spur of the moment photo shoot! Of course, everything they are wearing is from Dressing Room. It's a bit less dark than the moon sisters' fort, but some color never hurt anyone. Turbans, florals, kaftans, barefooted or boots, uber chunky jewels...very sultry. Love it. We always love photos on the train tracks across from our shop...makes for a good scene. Looking lovely ladies!
I will be there next time!

Shoe Renovation

So for the past 2 weeks our floors have been under construction. Pulling out old parquet and replacing with beautiful wood floors! I am so excited bc they are on the final stage of the process so will post photos soon. During all of this my closet (which is actually supposed to be the dining room) was ripped apart...things scattered in every room! I was so upset...my shoes were thrown everywhere! Obviously, Carlos & Juan do not understand just how important Louboutin and Givenchy are. Being semi neurotic I stacked them neatly in the spare bedroom for the meantime just to save my sanity. Bianca laid right next to the YSL's for the full2 hours this took me so I had to snap a pic of her. She is such a fashion lover.

A Night Out For The Best Dressed

(feet hurt from dancing...had to have a little rest!)

(Hilary, SarahK, & I)

This past Saturday was the night of Best Dressed Louisville. Local publication The Voice Tribune hosts a fabulous party anually that includes a fashion show which Dressing Room obviously participates in. 6 months leading up to the show everyone in town nominates & votes on locals who display fabulous style. Was a fun filled night & I always love seeing Louisville get dolled up & celebrate fashion!
