Designer Portfolio! The elegant and chic work of Sara Gilbane

Probably the element of Sara's work that I appreciate the most is how practical it is! It's not so matchy-matchy that you can't add your own personal possessions, and it looks comfy but also has personality.

Do you agree?

The color of that bench next to the turquoise tables is perfect. I'm a big fan on fuchsia right now




Loving the ethnic, old world character of this room

Help sourcing Carrie's vanity?

Hey guys -
So reader Eszter has a question! Where can she find Carrie's mirrored vanity? It's very art deco - and I imagine one can find some very close vanities at antique dealers, ebay, and craigslist. Here are a few mirrored vanities I found in the meantime, though none are as deco as hers...

A super affordable option from Pier 1

A pretty space just for you!

Sitting down at a dressing table every morning seems like such a luxury. Actually, having space for a dressing table is a luxury! Chalk it up to cramped apartments and rushed mornings I guess. Still, I like to collect inspiration for the day when I'll have the time and the space for a proper vanity. *ha*


I really like the idea of the fold down mirror if you also want to use it as a desk.

I like that the stool and the table aren't matches.

perfect!


Again, perfect, love that it's understated a bit, too.


For those who don't want to be too feminine.


Sleek and modern


Vintage and chic


Old style Hollywood...
