A neo-trad vanity…

Love, love, LOVE this nightstand arrangement published in Traditional Home.  The contrast of the modern lucite bench beneath the antique wood desk (found on the street in Brooklyn twenty-some years ago) is so very neo-traditional.  Plus the reproduction Venetian mirror accessorized with polaroids made my heart skip a beat.  I’m taking notes!

    I absolutely love this! In NYC there usually isn’t room for a nightstand AND a vanity – this is the perfect 2-in-1 solution!!

    I love this! That mirror is so adorable. It would make me feel like a movie star. Or someone really important.

    That mirror is beautiful. We love the polaroids and how they constrast so well with the antique mirror. And that stool, our new obsession.

    The mirror is absolutely stunning!! I love the way the modern and traditional are mixed together — it’s so funky and fun.

    This mirrow is so beautiful. Ohh I wish I had one like that. These colours are so peaceful and calm.
