adding to the bookshelf...

I was absolutely thrilled when I received a copy of the book Katie Ridder Rooms in the mail today. Her signature California style has always inspired me. I am a very visual person and her book certainly did not disappoint, as it is filled with images of her incredibly designed interiors. I especially love Katie's fearless use of pattern...

... placement of lovely ladders...

...and her flawless use of one of my favorite color combinations -- sky blue and burnt orange...

I highly recommend you pick up a copy yourself!
