Fashion Week: Cobalt and Black

In honor of a fall/winter 2010 fashion trend, cobalt and black, I’ve changed my header. Like it? The pink was annoying me. So cloying. I really only put it up for Valentine’s Day.

Here are some cobalt & black looks off the runway. For cobalt home décor on eBay, and other runway trends that we’ll see translated into interior looks this year, have a peek at my trend articles for The Inside Source: “New York Fashion Week Goes Home” (Part 1 and Part 2).

Designers
1st Row: Anna Sui; Burberry; Calvin Klein; Proenza Schouler
2nd Row: Marchesa; Catherine Malandrino; Diane von Furstenberg; Lela Rose

ARTmonday: Focus Line Art by Tracy Melton

Last month while browsing Etsy I came across these amazing tree ring encaustic paintings from Focus Line Art by Tracy Melton. I’ve been really interested in wall installations of late, and thought this would be the perfect opportunity to try one out. So I promptly purchased several sets (well, after much agonizing over just which sets). They’re amazing. I plan to hang them over my green Twilight Sleep Sofa in my study on the Cape. That is, if I can convince my husband to bang 12 nails into the pristine wall. I will post a pic if I prevail.
