Guess Who?
Okay, I thought we could play a little game of guess who...unfortunately I don't have any prizes :( but it can still be fun...right?
So...you may recognize it because it has been featured in a magazine before but - guess whose home this is? Clue #1 - its the home of a grammy award winning musician.








Interior - Nicky Hilton
April's issue of In Style magazine featured the sprawling 5,000 square foot home of hotel heiress Nicky Hilton. Yes, I said 5,000 square foot...and she lives alone. Gosh, to have 5,000 square feet of living space all to myself!
I've flipped through issue a few times...looking closely at her home but in the end I come to the same conclusion - something's just not working for me. In theory, it should work. Individually, I find the pieces to be quite striking, unique and pretty fabulous (except the sofa in the living room...WTF??) but together...it doesn't quite 'click' for me. It's another example, to me at least, that tons of money does not necessarily equal style.
I think one of my main issues with her home is that it's very 'black & white' (pun intended). It's very rare that I'm drawn to a space that is executed in just two, or three, colours - period. I find when people use a very limited colour palette and stick to it 100% - it just looks off to me. It's very hard to execute correctly I find. I mean, did everything have to be black or white? Maybe it's just me but I'm not into that kind of literal interpretation.
But I do give credit where credit is due and admit, again, that most of the pieces are fierce. The black vinyl headboard? Fierce. The mirrored dining room table = fab-u-lous. The breakfast nook chairs, the wall paper - lovely! Her fabulous vintage Chanel serving tray is also pretty great...
