Black and Tan

I love both of these pictures so so much. The first is a room designed by famous and talented Nate Berkus. I am continually impressed by his impeccable taste and creative ideas.

The second is from a designer that I recently came across. Her name is Katie Leede , and this is a photo of her in her own home taken for C Magazine.  This room is so glamorous!  The winding staircase, the floor to ceiling photos, and of course the fresh palm fronds - It all just comes together so well!

Both of these rooms perfectly incorporate rich black details (from the rug to the leopard print stool in the first - and the wrought iron scrolled railing as well as frames on the wall in the second) combined with glistening gold touches (the mirror and adorable coffee table from Nate and the chandelier from Katie).  Ahhh...A girl can dream, can't she.
