I’ve been noticing swings in interiors rather a lot over the last year. The plexiglass ones have a retro ’60s look and the rattan harken back to the ’70s. I prefer the cleaner, more architectural designs. I sprinkled in a few summery outdoor ones too. Brian Andriola

Montage: Afghans
Designers elevated granny chic on spring and fall runways with afghans fashioned as um, fashion. Not sure anyone would actually wear a crochet square getup (other than Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who’ve been spotted with granny square scarves), but the look is taking hold in decors for the under 60 set.

The i k a t trend is holding fast and furious. So much so that Elle Decor, which has been touting the look for years (House Beautiful is a huge fan too), devoted a page to it in the front of the book this month. I promise to put a product post together too, but [...]

Montage: Vintage Suitcases
I’m really not a dusty old suitcase kind of gal. But last month I was at designer Jeff Osborne’s South End loft (I’ll blog about it later this week), where I realized I must acknowledge the allure of vintage Vuitton. (His Vuitton is the second photo down.) While I won’t be procuring any of these [...]
