Bravo TV Event & More...

This past Sunday I attended a pre-screening event by BravoTV.  It's for a new show called, Interior Therapy with Jeff Lewis! Some of you may remember Jeff, he's a talented house flipper who starred in Flipping Out, also on Bravo! The pre-screening for the new show was hilarious & even though I didn't see the famous Zoila, Jeff didn't disappoint with his humor!

Bravo invited a few bloggers to come out - including myself! They picked each of us up in a decked out NYC Taxi cab. There were 10 taxi cabs & each decorated to impress. I ended up with a beautiful Moroccan-styled one, but there were others like the 60's Mod, Glam, Ski Lodge & more! We had brunch together & I drank plenty of Harney & Sons Chamomile tea, (one of my fave tea brands).


My morning started with a little breakfast made by the husband.


......then the Bravo TV taxi showed up!


Wow, I was shocked when I looked inside!


Floor to ceiling decor...My fave part was def the ceiling.


The floor was just as cute, who would have thought!?!




Did I mention these cab rides were offering FREE RIDES to New Yorkers all day!?!??


Quick peek into the 60's Mod...


the ski lodge...


 awaiting the food at our table....


I spotted this gorgeous horse wallpaper, anyone know where it's from?!




eggs benedict for brunch & apple cobbler dessert!

At the table ...Ashlina is to the right.


In the whole Jeff Lewis spirit, I also got a chance to provide some interior therapy to my sister's little home office! My sister who is based in Colorado & runs a pet sitting company & blog, decided she needed an office makeover. So, we converted her existing closet-office into a much happier space.


I thought I would help her makeover her office with some items Bravo TV sent her way! It's amazing how just a FEW accessories can help transform a space &  make you feel more motivated & inspired! 

Below is the before & after, what do you think??!


BEFORE
Dull & lifeless 




 AFTER
Adding flowers & a vase instantly livens up the space! We also decided to paint the inside of the closet, one shade lighter. Adding a white chair definitely makes the space brighter!

  4. The taxi looked fantastic, sounded like a great event.

    The wallpaper you mentioned is a Florence Broadhurst pattern. I'm not sure who is creating the wallpaper in the U.S,but the site we've always used for Florence Broadhurst in Australia is www.signatureprints.com.au

    I've also heard that they have teamed up with Kate Spade and are using the Florence Broadhurst patterns in a fashion line apparently

  10. It looks like you had an awesome day!

    The wallpaper is from Florence Broadhurst's 'Blueprints' collection currently only available from Signature Prints in Australia (http://www.signatureprints.com.au/products/wallpaper/blueprints-collection/).

    Kate Spade now has one of her wallpaper designs for sale in their decor shop, the 'Japanese Floral' (my personal favourite). There may be more designs to come later in the year.

  16. What fun! If you are interested in more Florence Broadhurst -Ive linked to a book which is just gorgeous. Apart from looking beautiful in itself and having a heap of sample prints - the story of Florence is surprising (sometimes shocking!) and beautiful.

  35. Yes - the horse stampede wallpaper was originally designed by the gorgeously talented Australian designer Florence Broadhurst who rose to fame in the 50s and 60s. Her life makes for an amazing read. I can't recommend this book enough:
