While this may be pretty/striking, I just CANNOT get on the orange/tangerine bandwagon! I have been looking at a male/female pair of orange oriental figurines at a resale shop for 2 months now and just cannot make myself bring them home. They are OBVIOUSLY vintage and unusual and the price is good. Clearly I am not the ONLY one hesitating here, as evidenced by the fact that they are STILL for sale! I AM crazy about the lampshades (style) in this pic, however and am saving it in my favorites "custom" file.
The combination here is knockout... By adding the orange it has taken the classic blue and white up a notch...Personally I think if the fabric on the table was changed it would be even better!
I grew up in Europe and Lake Forest, Illinois. After graduating from The Ferry Hall School, Bryn Mawr College, and George Washington University Law School, I practiced law in Washington, D.C. Now I am finally devoting my time to two of my great passions - interior design and Chinoiserie.
Please visit me at my other blog Style Redux-a blog about great style in fashion, interior design, and a bit of everything else. It may be vintage or new, budget or designer. It's all about living a life of style.
