I was surprised when I saw Megan Mullally's house tour in a recent issue of Elle Decor. I guess because I only know her as Karen on Will and Grace, I didn't think her personal style would be so laid back because she's so good at playing a rich NYC elitist.
What do you think?
so spa like Possibly one of my favorite kitchens. It's so real for a Hollywood star isn't it?
So I was introduced to this show a while back, but I don't get the Sundance channel so I've never actually seen it. The show is called "Man Shops Globe," and features Keith Johnson - buyer at large for Anthropologie. The show was described to me as such, "Cameras follow Keith from flea markets in Paris to remote villages in India and obscure art studios in Turkey in his quest for the most unique and unusual decorative objects from around the world."
It sounded interesting so I went to the site to take a peak. From the video clips I saw it was really nice to see how Keith's creative mind worked. He could see an inspiring object, it's potential, and decide what it needed to be just perfect for the stores. I also think this show is good to educate viewers about the arts around the world, and what cultures are responsible for what crafts. I'm including a video clip below, and some pictures I found on the site. From what I've seen so far, if I had Sundance I'd probably check out this show!

Have you ever seen Man Shops Globe? I'd like to hear what you think!
Sorry I've been M.I.A you guys, I was traveling to Spain, where I'll be visiting with my boyfriend for a month until we leave on a nine week backpacking trip around Europe. I'll fill you in with more details later - so stay tuned!
For today I thought I'd just grace Decorology with some really great living rooms. Let me know which one is your fav!
Love this modern retro/industrial look. The carpet keeps it cozy. via Country Living
Probably the element of Sara's work that I appreciate the most is how practical it is! It's not so matchy-matchy that you can't add your own personal possessions, and it looks comfy but also has personality.
Do you agree?

The color of that bench next to the turquoise tables is perfect. I'm a big fan on fuchsia right now
