{Style Test} Patricia
Thursday, November 20th, 2008This next SG Style Test comes from artist and blogger Patricia van Essche. Her blog, pve design, is packed full of her personal amazing work. Because she is such a fantastic artist I knew her style would be just as fantastic…sure enough.



Patricia’s Style- Traditional, Simplistic and Modern-Federalist. All Organically brought together.
Patricia likes clean, uncluttered spaces with subtle entrances of color. Natural accessories, raw finishes and big bright windows assist and compliment all of her spaces. Beautiful pieces of furniture are individually handpicked. Her style shouts remember me and put your feet up!
Its not to late to take the Style Test and pin point your style. Please email me 5 images of rooms you LOVE. I will post a handful of tests.

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008{Style Test} Laura
Wednesday, November 19th, 2008I was so thrilled to diagnose Laura from The Scoop which happens to be a favorite read of mine and I am sure all of yours as well. This was such a fun one because of Laura’s amazing style! Here are her results.




Laura’s Style- Electic mix of Vintage Timeless with Rustic, Glam and Traditional moments.
This fabulous style introduces moments of unafraid but elegant patterns mixed with bold colors. Enjoys pops of organic with lovely curves and lines. Eclectic rooms that makes sense because they are beautifully positioned. Fashion and Interiors are close friends in this style. Spaces that will never be forgotten.

Kids Christmas
Monday, November 17th, 2008Call me old fashioned or just call me a mom but I always have to have a traditional (which may be different then the normal traditional) Christmas tree for my kiddos. In my main sitting room will be the more “grownup” tree but upstairs, that is where the child’s tree will show off all of its handmade, quirky, bold colored glory. Here are few items I found that are fabulous!
BTW, Ana from Rearranged Design included my home in her monthly house tour posts. Thank you so much Ana:)Urban Outfitters

{Style Test} Lindsay
Thursday, November 13th, 2008Artist and blogger Lindsay Brackeen is SG’s first Style Test contestant or should I say patient:) Lindsay, who is a fantastic artist and who has been around the web and back again many many times, has fantastic taste! I was so excited to diagnose her and was even more excited when she told me that my diagnosis was exactly what she wants to do in her own home!
Below are the 5 images that she sent to me (via Domino, Easy Living and Flickr).
Here we go…




Lindsay’s Style- Modern Clean Country, with a fabulous flair of Retro, Glam and Art Deco.
Lindsay likes Personality but with Function. Clean soothing colors with splashes of bold colors. Bold pieces but not to many patterns going on in one room. She loves her spaces clean white and crisp but with bold details!!
