Favorite Five - Sideboards

With fall knocking loudly on my door I have started to think about the upcoming holidays and what we need to do to prepare the house for guests! If you are furniture shopping you should be thinking about buying relatively soon since lead times on items are usually at least 5 weeks. So with that said I am on the hunt for a fabulous sideboard to function as storage but also as a serving station if needed! Below are my "Favorite Five" sideboards!

Vanguard's Storage Cabinet has a mid century feel and I like the idea of 4 simple doors.

I just love the curved feature and detailing on the doors of the Alexa and it would look pretty from all directions!



The Vandyke Sideboard at 72"w would be ample storage that I am sure in a jiffy I could make into not enough storage!

$6000 is a bit out of my price range but I can't help but love the sleek lines of the Trenton Sideboard!





This Arhaus style is a bit rustic for me but I would love to find a vintage piece with all glass doors and  exceptional height! It definitely would add interest and drama to the dining room!

What furniture pieces are you looking to purchase before the holidays?

Home Typography Tuesday

It has been a while since I posted a "Home Type Tuesday" but when I saw this image in the WSJ Magazine I knew it was time to share! Every inch of the members only club, 5 Hertford Street is a feast for the eye. From the layered Oushak rugs to the ceiling high wall collages there is a huge amount of visual excitement in this space. When you happen upon a bright white door with a simple scroll of "gentlemen" it is a break for the eye and forces you to take notice. I just love it and feels a bit unexpected in this setting!

 

If you need a 3pm work break, grab a cup of tea and tour the rest of Robin Birley's Club and home. It is truly incredible!
