SCENE
A mod loft in TriBeCa. Late evening. We see a white laquer parson's desk piled with several issues of Vogue and a Prada handbag. In the center is an open Macbook Air.
Fashionable girl: [sitting down at desk] "I'm just going to click 'buy' and order this fabulous hand-loomed ikat pillow from Uzbekistan! It's perfect for my new Baker couch!"
[eery music]
The haunting, pixilated face of a woman appears on the screen.
Fashionable girl: "EEEEEEeeeeeeeeek!"
The pixilated face mouths "noooo," swipes the coveted pillow from the shopping cart, and disappears.
Fashionable girl: [weeping] "Now I'll never have my beautiful imported throw pillow!"
END SCENE
Yes, it would be a really scary movie. Especially if the Baker couch was in a very hard to match color. Anyway, I spend a lot of time "haunting" my favorite home decor websites, and one of my favorite spots is Pieces. Founded by Atlanta interior designer and tastemaker Lee Kleinhelter, Pieces features a mix of stunning vintage and modern favorites, and it's one of those websites that ALWAYS has something you want. One of those websites you do NOT visit when your bank account is low but your mood is ebullient. (It also has great shopping features, like a search engine just for colors.)
Dear Santa: please shop here.
Their website is so great, I thought the bricks and mortar version in Atlanta had to be even better - and it was. Prepare for some pretty!
A set of Jonathan Adler chairs cozy up to the table.
Flame stitch pillows in white arm chairs flank a pink murano lamp.
A gorgeous metallic speckled cowhide rug. I'm obsessed with these - remember?
The store mascot: a white Golden. He matches the pillows!
This stunning couch is vintage, repainted in a beautiful white laquer.
For shopping (and most of the items picture above), visit here. Happy haunting!
P.S. The customer service is also great. I had a thank you note for stopping by in my inbox before I even got home!
