Oooh Baby Baby!

Since when did being little become so hip?

Apparently, just cuz you're a baby doesn't mean you have to live like one!

Check out this fabulous furniture designed for nurseries.

Who knew being a kid meant living this well!?

Tag You're "IT"-Tastemaker Sales

There are so many specialty shops that have

cropped up online that offer seemingly great values on

high-end designer items for a limited time... 

 

One Kings Lane, Gilt, Joss & Main,
1stdibs.com, fab.com to name a few.  These sites
offer sample sale type offerings usually
for 24-48 hours of time.   They create a
sense of immediacy.  And obsessive urgency.  

Over time, I have developed 
a love/ hate relationship with these sales. 

(Check out my conflicted thoughts about OKL here). 

Sure, they're supposed to

offer 50-70% savings, but I know

that's not always the case.  I know because

I have tracked their offerings religiously. 

And sometimes I have found these

super sales are not that super.

After a brief hiatus, I am reevaluating

the way these designer super sale

sites should be coveted.

I still love to peruse the sales, but

the hidden pearl is with

the Tastemaker Tag Sales. 

A tastemaker is a visionary (a person) that has the

ability to influence styles in decor. 

Sort of like, they say it's cool.  Then it is. 

This is where you'll find the

truly unique, vintage, one of a kind! 

Check out some of the Tastemaker finds below:

Love the kelly green lacquer

dresser and trellis chairs!

yes, sometimes vintage, one of a kind means a higher price tag

Of course, for those of you that

read my Massimo Vitali OKL post yesterday,

you know that I had mass hysteria over the OKL sale yesterday. 

This is what I used to experience on a

weekly basis.  Lately, not so much! 

I can only hope that I will be proven wrong with more exciting features like that one!
