Happy Easter and a Best of MI...

Have a great Easter Sunday!  I thought I would post this fabulous picture from a few years ago...I am loving pink this season in all forms.  Just bought a piece of pink clothing, a vest, and have a lovely pink infinity scarf. It is so indicative of Easter to me...enjoy.

FROM AUGUST 2011:

Wow! A foyer is your first look when you walk into a home, kind of like a first impression when you meet someone, you notice what they are wearing.  I love that this designer chose this gorgeous pink, Benjamin Moore's Razzle Dazzle (indeed!) to greet guests - what a design statement!  Would you paint your entryway hot pink?

Not to be forgotten is the beautiful vintage NEEDLEPOINT chair - can you believe? Jonathan Berger is the designer and I am his newest fan!

Best of MI...vintage + traditional = inspiration...


Its almost the end of 2012 and my posts have been sporadic as I was enjoying a week off...I want to show a 'Best of Monaco Interiors' series so here is the first post focusing on the beautiful work of designer Berkley Vallone, featured back in April...I just love her style and you will too - happy Sunday!! xoxo

I got my new Traditional Home magazine and was completely blown away by the pictures of the homes. Gone are the uninspired homes they have regularly featured! This issue has one house after another of really unique and different looking homes - traditional with a vintage and colorful twist! One designer really stands out for me - Berkley Vallone, who lives in Scottsdale, AZ and has a really charming and quirky home. See what you think:


Vintage trunk with a 'B' on it...



Whimsical teacup clock...


Gold details in the entrance hall...


Glamorous powder room...


More whimsy in the form of a lamp...cute dog too!


'B' on a pillow...


Check out this cake! wow!


Concrete counters, blue tiles, colorful dishes...looks like Orla Kiely...


Wow, wow - Lee Jofa paper, Jonathon Adler accessories, Elkay faucet!
what a laundry room!! Love the black + white...


Gorgeous leopard chair in the master...
Berkley and her mother run their own design company -

Hope you are all having a great Sunday!
