In Your Room


I took a couple of pictures in one of my favorite rooms of my house. My son was taking a nap while my mom and I were getting ready to go to a family party. I snapped a couple of pictures while I was lounging around waiting for him to wake up so we could get him ready, too. I kept my outfit simple for the get-together. I really love these lace-up Jeffrey Campbell shoes I bought from Bona Drag. They are deceptively comfortable and look great with so many outfits.


We remodeled our house after my father passed away, and I wanted our living room to feel like someone who was well-traveled decorated the room, which is the very definition of my father. My mom suggested the crown molding, which I absolutely love. I kept it very masculine by choosing earthy colors for the walls and couch, which worked with the existing dark woods of the Grandfather clock and piano. I incorporated a lot of the things my father bought during his travels while in the Navy. I then sprinkled in some vintage looking pieces, like five Tiffany lamps and the Hunter fan that looks like a throwback from another era.

The other inspiration for this room was my friend Trudy’s house. She has this very comfortable couch, on which I had slept on a few occasions after late night concerts or parties in Los Angeles. I made sure that we had big fluffy couches and lots of throw blankets so that friends would feel the same way I did in Trudy’s house: warm and cozy.
