Dramatic Comfort: Unlike a Unicorn, it Exists!

March 29, 2017 · In: Art, Books, Eat, Fashion, Interior Design, Kitchen, Travel

Dramatic Comfort :: House of Valentina
Dramatic Comfort.  It sounds more like a unicorn than a thing that actually exists, but it does!  I find that a lot of us struggle to mix metals and textures.  We are scared of what the outcome will be so we play it safe and use one material throughout… which inevitably leaves us feeling unsatisfied and we can’t quite put our finger on why.

Fur and leather, bronze and chrome, distressed wood and metal, linen and velvet… the combinations are endless and they all create a dramatic comfort that is compelling and delicious… especially if the combination is healthy chia and chocolate…

I spent the morning foraging in the backyard… it I spent the morning foraging in the backyard… it’s bursting with hydrangea, dripping with figs (sadly for us our pet deer have helped themselves to the blueberries and blackberries 😅) but I had this moment as I was filling my vases with my bounty from my own backyard… I just smiled and felt so utterly happy- summer may just be my favorite season after all! 

What is your favorite part of summer?! 

With the weekend ahead we’ve got Prosecco and summer charcuteries on our agenda, plus a few mean rounds of cornhole with the boys! We might even squeeze in lounging in the sun, baking a blueberry crumble (with blueberries from the grocery store!), and just generally unwinding and soaking up these summer days! Happy weekend XxV
