High Style Design, Fabulous Frocks and Narnia with Whimsical Characters


Good Morning Readers

Today I want to share with you an eclectic mix of some favourite books.

High Style is an Interior design book about Hollywood Regency interiors. It is by Ron Woodson and Jaime Rummerfield. If you like Hollywood Regency then this book is definitely one to add to your collection. Below, I have pictured it with some items that are truly heavenly.


The book is a great read and very architectural. I know you will appreciate the lovely pictures and glamorous interiors of that time as well as of today.

Fabulous Frocks by Jane Eastoe and Sarah Gristwood is a couture frocks collection of many and varied beautiful dresses. It is such a happy and celebratory book for the lover of garment design and couture. You can see both the cover and a spread below. Works as a nice display item as well don't you think?




Narnia by C.S Lewis is a classic. The giraffes in Tuxedo's reminded me of the whimsical characters in Narnia so I decided to put the book with them on my side table. The version of Narnia has the famous stories that have been filmed and a few more - it is the whole collection. Well worth reading for young and old actually.





So, I wish you all a good time exploring the many facets of life's beauty and creativity as embodied by the examples from this blog.

Enjoy!
