dressing tables

I cannot imagine anything more glamorous than a dressing table. I love to collect vintage silver and crystal, and what better way is there to display them than on a dressing table! The fabric is from Fortuny, truly the most fabulous fabric there is. Fortuny is hand made fabric from Florence and only looks better with age. The mirror is venetian and the walls are covered in raw silk. The lamps are made from antique silver candle sticks I purchased at a flea market.

Every time we’ve been able to stay at a Ritz Carlton, I have always loved the bathrooms. They make me feel so elegant. I always said when we built our next house, that I wanted to have a glamorous bathroom like the Ritz. I started by doing venetian plaster on the walls, just in pure white. I used Carrera marble on all the floors and counter tops.
