Loro Piana Interiors: Amazingness

I've always loved Loro Piana for their classic preppy style clothing (that I can't afford) so imagine my INTENSE GLEE when I saw they are designing fabrics for interiors, too! It is a to-the-trade only high end collection of cashmeres and linens and a line of carpets. Here is the interiors part on the website. So gorgeous!

These fabrics look so luxurious. I love how textured and soft they look. The colors are KILLING ME.

Scene from their new showroom which I believe they now have in the D & D building!

Showroom. And their carpets are off to the left!

Oh god, I love that color pink against the grey/beige window pane plaid.

On the website, they point out that the new line is "not just for the home, but for private yachts, planes and helicopters as well." I'm not even offended or saddened by that because I'm blinded by love.

Throw Blankets

If you haven't noticed, the temperatures have dropped in the past few days and I can feel Fall coming. A snuggly throw would come in quite handy in the coming months, so I have done a search for some of my favorites. Any other suggestions?

Polo Cashmere Cable knit throw, $ 595. Comes in other colors, too.

Williams Sonoma Home at wshome.com on sale for $149 right now! Who doesn't need more plaid in their life? So classic--and it's cashmere.

Gumps cashmere throw in persimmon! $275.  

(See earlier blog entry on how orange is the new pink.)

Etsy store Austin Quality Knits. Love the homemade look of it--looks like a big sweater.
