I have been loving brass (un polished/antiqued/powder coated) for lighting, plumbing fixtures, drapery hardware and embellished details for the past year or so. Brass pieces are elegant and timeless yet still very modern.   It is has taken over the design world! Caring for brass is important if you want to keep it looking its best. Whether the piece is antiqued brass or polished, it will tarnish from oxygen in the air and the oil on your skin. Maintaining the patina is especially important if you are working with the popular un-lacquered Brass. Using saturated polish clothes from a drug store/jewellery store or backing soda and water wit

As many of you know, blue hues are one of my favourite colours to wear and decorate with. It is fresh, calming and powerful. This  look is inspired by warm summer days and nights hanging out by the beach, relaxing and enjoying cocktails and laughs with friends.  I came across this dress while pulling for a photo shoot, falling in love with the interesting weave detail on the back, combined with a minimalist front. A sheer overlay creates a maxi silhouette over a mini dress underneath.  This rich royal blue dress looks great with natural leather and warm toned metals accessories. These two "Jodi" bra
