The high summer, August issues of the shelter mags are on the newsstands and looking fantastic. First up, is my sneak peak for you inside Living Etc and given my love for colour it's a treat from cover to cover. I would be tempted to hand over the credit card and order that yellow (2) armchair (with added multi coloured buttons) without even looking at the price! The hits of bright colours keep on coming: first in the form of that hot pink table (3) from a modern and industrial LA home, then in a whole feature on Palm Springs style (4, 5). As the pages turned I discovered two very different, but very lust worthy home office spaces that feature some of my favourite styles: stripes, chevrons and inspiration walls (6) and rustic-meets-industrial chic (7). I spent a while trying to decide whether the swimwear designer (8) or her home were more stylish, I decided it was a tie (I need that pool print behind her head)! To round off a great issue there is a fun feature offering ideas on stylish front doors and then an interview with author of Etcetera, Sibella Court. This is a must have issue, guys, so be sure to pick up a copy if you can!

oOooh thanks for that, love Sibella Court,I have her book! must go get that issue.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Will!! how amazing is the yellow velvet chair?!?!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the sneak peek Will. We have to wait weeks for this magazine to arrive in Australia..sigh. But my wonderful daughter did buy me Sibella Court's book and it arrived in the mail today so I can content myself with that instead! That girl knows how to stay in the will, Will!!
ReplyDeleteOh boy! Do I spy Diane Bergeron?? This issue looks great...I'll be off to get my copy! Thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteThat yellow armchair is blissful! Amazing pictures, I definitely see pops of bold colors a new design trend :). Thank you for the comments on my blog. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love that pink dining table and that red door..Adore!
ReplyDeleteI think I might have to steal that idea of painting the door red and the trim light blue! I love it!
ReplyDeletethanks so much for sharing! I have thought about subscribing to this instead of just picking up at B&N and you might just have convinced me! Can you tell me about the photo of the pool in the LR? Its fantastic!
ReplyDeleteLove this mag! have to go pick it up at the bookstore this month... you've got me excited to peer through the pages!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to some quiet time every month with Livingetc and a nice cup of coffee and maybe a bit of chocolate!!!Shall be picking it up as soon as it arrives in our local newsagent.That chair is amazing and love the front door too.

Oh thanks Will, loving this issue, so colourful and vibrant. Thanks for picking out the best of the pages for us Canadians who can't always pick up a copy.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, looks to be a great issue. I wonder how I can find it in the states? How's your summer coming along. I just wanted to put it out there that if you ever find yourself in San Francisco... I'd love for you to be our guest. We will have a spare bedroom in the Fall after our son heads off to college :)
ReplyDeleteWe'd have too much fun, you and I!!!

I am sitting reading your blog with my copy of LivingEtc open next to me...I've just been reading it over lunch and was so in raptures over it that I had to bring it with me, couldn't bear to part with it! There are so many wonderful things about this issue, but I really do NEED that pink table!
ReplyDeletelove that pink table!
ReplyDeleteOhh, I looove that white and pink bedroom, so hot!!
ReplyDeleteI am so loving that yellow chair with the multi colored buttons and that pink table is amazing! Love!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right. That hot pink bedroom is to die! I visited Diane Bergeron's home/office/loft last year. Love her style! She's put her own personal touch on what would ordinarily be an industrial space.
ReplyDeletelots of yum there, including that yellow chair....
ReplyDeleteOh my gah. I love that pop of green pendant against the black and white fabrics. And that second office picture? Sign me up! Dang.
ReplyDeleteLooks like its filled with lots of delicious ideas! Loving those black and white striped curtains - fab!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading 'my interior life' with sibella court". it's my favorite part of the magazine.
