Decorating a la Ms. Bradshaw

While taking a closer look at the interiors of Carrie's apartment, I noticed that she appears to have reupholstered her bench in Peter Dunham's classic Fig Leaf!

In an HBO article, he explains "We realized that what Carrie has in her apartment is not what she's all about. She's not a decorator, but there's definitely a sense of style in the way she's put things together." The walls are a soft shade of celery green washed with a lavender iridescent glaze.

He wanted to achieve a "lived in" look, and didn't want her apartment to be perfectly neat and tidy since, after all, "We know that Carrie would have some deadline or date to meet. She doesn't have the time to neatly arrange her products or stack her shoes in the closet. She's more of a 'Leave 'em where they fall' kind of woman. It's what we like to call organized chaos."

Egg Chair: 50 years of style
This year the Egg Chair celebrates its 50th birthday and I've gotta say, she has never looked better ;) I love how the homeowners above toned down the modern looking Egg by pairing it with rustic wood, vintage finds and a neutral palette. Perfection.
