GLAM SLAM, THANK YOU MA'AM

In case you haven't seen the rockets red glare, there's a "glamour revolution" going on...

You'd have to be living in a holler to have missed the glam trend that started swelling a few years back. Swift and sure, it has infiltrated every shelter publication and designer boutique, crushing 20 years of interior-doldrums to smithereens on its crusade to reform a generation!

With its gutsy roots firmly planted in the HOLLYWOOD REGENCY movement, its funky and refined at the same time. Its a riot of innovation and color, and it PUSHES BOUNDARIES. Its a fresh take on what's classical and modern, and it is the most exciting thing to happen to interior design in decades.

Hardest hit by the cannon fire is the place where we spend 1/3 of our lives- the bedroom. The place where we retreat and rejuvenate, has found no limits for luxury. I'm absolutely cool with that.
