Friday eye candy: Between interiors and bags

Above, Miles Redd via The big book of chic

I'll spend this weekend packing for our first trip to New York since we moved here to Sao Paulo.  I'm out of myself with excitement and happiness to see my family and friends after such a long time.  I know it's been only 10 months but for me that's an eternity.  I'm even more excited to get to skip part of winter here in Sao Paulo.  Enjoy yours!

Style inspiration: Clutch it during the day

And this is what I meant when I said yesterday that clutches are very much used during the day now.  Not sure if having one of your arms always occupied is a comfortable thing to do, but stylish it is!  And only for a short while that's all we need, so get along with the program.  Enjoy!

Clutch it

1- Livia Luxe oversized clutch, 2- Alexander Mcqueen embroidery clutch, 3- Graphic clutch, 4-Jimmy Choo 5- Diane von Furstenberg, 6- Tonya Hawkes, 7- Lanvin, 8- Valentino, 9- Givenchy

As small as an evening clutch could be, a fair amount of a woman's taste could be appreciated by taking a look at the kind she is carrying.  I usually used to think of daily bags more than evening ones.  That could be because I don't use to go out at nights much as of lately; hello kids?  Good thing they are not confined only to evening anymore, wearing one during the day seems to be the chic norm now.  I've been having a crush on the Givenchy envelope clutch for a little while now but I kept waiting or hoping for its price to come down.  Until I finally found one online in London at LN-CC for almost half the price as in the US, not even mentioning the price Brazil.  Brazil's price craziness is without comparison!  Enjoy!

Budget conscious

1- Asymmetric clutch, 2- Mina cage clutch, 3- Black polka dot, 4- Nude and grey, 5- Metalic clutch, 6- Harlow leather envelope, 7- viva, 8- snakeskin clutch.

Bruno Frisoni's Moroccan home

Herve Van der Straeten ceiling fixture and arched console welcome guests in the entrance hall below.

Bruno Frisoni, the designer behind the shoe brand Roger Vivier shares a vacation home in Tangier, Morocco with his partner the designer Herver Van Der Straeten.  As much as I love Roger Vivier's shoes, Herve Van Der Straeten is by far one of my favorite furniture designers.  Everything he creates is beyond extraordinary, chic, unique, inventive and like nothing else.  The result of their home is simply gorgeous.  Enjoy!

Custom made klismos chairs surround a Van der Straeten table.

Amazing door to the kitchen and beautiful fretwork on the cupboards. 

 Love the bathroom.

In the colorful guest bedroom the walls are upholstered in a striped carpet.
