When I think of Italy, the Mecca for my favorite food, art, architecture, you name it, I think of high-quality, handmade craftsmanship. I also can’t help but think of the colors I saw on my recent trip to Northern Italy. Standing out against the backdrop of rich Italian colors such as sienna, sky blue, yellow and Venetian red, I noticed the striking color, black.

27 Jan 7 Luxury Design Tips Inspired by Christopher Guy and Julia Buckingham in Vegas!
Remember last week I said it was Tradeshow Season with Color and Texture On Trend? Well, Las Vegas Market is wrapping up, and since I'm not there, and had no time to share all my wonderful photos from that AMAZING whirlwind trip last year, this week's Texture Tuesday is dedicated to:
- artist and interior designer Jackie Von Tobel of Soft Design Lab who made the Las Vegas Red Carpet Tour possible for me,
- interior designer Julia Buckingham who debuted her new collection for Global Views, and
- one of the top luxury home furnishings brand in the world, Christopher Guy.
30 May Deborah Main Tosses Up #PillowFight Highlights
It's Summertime....the perfect time for a recap of our first #PillowFight!!
That's right, the Pillow Goddess, WAS in the hot seat last week for a #PillowFight as guest host of #DesignLux chat's "Pillow Fight". Didn't see any feathers flying as in "Along Comes Polly" (at least not yet!), but boy was it a blast!!
Thank you so much Brandon Smith for having me as a guest host. I always look forward to your chat #DesignLUX every Thursday. I think we were rather a tame bunch for this first go around, so you might have to have a few more #PillowFights to get the adrenalin going. But in case you, dear readers, missed the chat, do not fear as I recap it all right here (below) with a few opinions, pillow finds, and tips from followers of #DesignLux chat.
28 May Deborah Main Inspired by Christopher Guy and #ModenusTalks
What a thrill it was earlier this week to tune into #ModenusTalks, a new series Veronika Miller is doing with Modenus during the blog tours. The first one was launched in Vegas which you can read about here.
But a new team of bloggers was in NYC last week on the 2nd New York BlogTour #BlogTourNYC(PartDeux). (I know this might get a little confusing, but these amazing blog tours keep coming. And you know I've been sharing with you all the wonderful treats from the first NYC Blog tour (with many more inspiring posts to come!) and that understandably I'm partial to my own team BlogTourNYC2014)

One of the highlights for me and Deborah Main Designs at the #SneakPeek at Dallas Market in January (Yup, I still have a couple more posts of inspiration from just that one single day!) was having the opportunity to meet and hear Thomas O'Brien speak. Not having a background in design, I honestly didn't know who he was. I really enjoyed hearing him speak, seeing his slide show, and learning about his NYC store. Since going to Dallas was my first time attending market as a blogger, I was very keen on learning more and listening to what he had to say. I was definitely intrigued!
