Hello everyone, how are you? I'm finally in NYC and in one piece. Thank God! I have to say the minute I landed the weather turned into humid & rainy MESS. Actually, I knew it would, I had peeked at the forecast a few days ago. Awful huh? This means BAD HAIR day.....oh well, at least the hotel made up for it.
I'm staying at the Royalton & they were nice enough to give me a room with a large balcony that faces the street on the 14th floor! It's sooo cute! I promise I'll post pictures sometime tomorrow or Wednesday!
In the meanwhile, check out another cute place, this NYC pad belongs to Melanie from Luxury Monograms. You must have seen her monogrammed home decor, it's been featured on several blogs already - my favorite is the leopard print place mats!
She also blogs on the Iconic Blog, which is a really neat blog mostly about fashion & Interior Design.

When I asked Melanie what she liked best about her place she responded:
I love to entertain, so an open kitchen is a must. We have since thrown many parties here and love the flow of the living/dining space.

My favorite part of her home is her dining area with the Saarinen table and ghost chairs. Not forgetting the art above the bench. Her gray velvet sofa is lovely, too!

I love how she placed the dresser in the room! By doing that, and adding the full length mirror, she created a "dressing area" in a regular sized master bedroom! Amazing idea!
looks lovely epecially the little dining corner!
p.s.: i have the same computer :-)
Happy new week, Jen

This is an amazing space. WOW!
Well done-the kitchen banquette is a very clever use of space.
Gorgeous! Based on the views (which are such a luxury in NYC), I guess that this apartment is on the Upper West Side. Miss you, NYC! So much.
Have a great time there.

Wow that apt is gorgeous! Glad you made it safely to NYC
So beautiful! I wouldn't be able to work with that view. I want to know more about the bench by her dining table!
Loving this house and everything about it. From the beautiful sofa to her sensational jewelry collection, I am gushing over everything. :)

Lucky her to live in NYC...and with such place she can afford, I love the white walls and the huge mirror..we are soon a buying a new house and I can't wait to decorate it as well...the couch is also very classy, I saw one like that in Lafayette for only $75, we thought it costs $450. and wish it would still be there..
Her home is gorgeous!! And how awesome to live right in NYC! What a dream!
Her home is beautiful and the view could not be any better !! Love the living area.

Of course you'd like the leopard print place mats Jen!!! I literally busted out laughing when you tweeted earlier, "At blogfest having lunch...I have leopard print heels for those looking". So hard not to admire a gal who loves leopard!
