_____________________________________________________________
It’s that time of the year…
This popped in my inbox today and I thought it was actually quite clever.  The copywriters at Neiman Marcus have quite outdone themselves.
As a magazine editor I’m always trying to make the latest product round-up timely and new.  I think this catchy moniker hits the nail on the head.

Maybe the only reason to go to Las Vegas.  I just heard about the Neon Museum and can’t get enough.  It’s a museum completely dedicated to collecting and preserving the old neon signs - the classic Vegas art form.  They have more than 150 in the collection.
Take note, you must make an appointment before going!

Saw this today on The Moment Blog and can’t get this rug out of my mind.  I know something’s good when it sticks in my head for more than a day!
Here’s an image from the new collection of rugs by Barber Osgerby for the Rug Company.  I’m sure if I found out the price, that would help me forget about it.  Until then…

As seen on Danny Seo’s lovely eco minded blog, Daily Danny.  He spent a night at the Crosby Street Hotel that recently opened in Soho.  Read here about his experience -  hard beds, oh my!  But, i do say, it does look attractive.
Isn’t this hotel room grand?
And here’s a selection of the many other rooms in the hotel as featured in New York Magazine.

Have you all read the new online lifestyle magazine Lonny yet?  If you haven’t check it out here at Lonnymag.com.
It helps fill that void that domino left behind.  I’m feeling hopeful for the magazine industry now.  An homage to London and NY, editor-in-chief Michelle Adams named the publication LONNY.

Over on Design*Sponge, I spied this chic idea for a bulletin board.  Hung in the home of Casey Green, you can’t help but take a closer look.  It’s an old door!  Albeit one with great architectural details. What a great find.  And I’m a sucker for anything painted black. Sharp.
