I’m always impressed by Christina Ricci’s red carpet outfits, so it should be no surprise that her closet is just as impressive. But the girl is actually selling her home with said closet! Anyone have $1.25 million? (via Style Section LA)

…shoes? …flowers?  Barbara Hulanicki echoes these sentiments in wallpaper form for Graham & Brown.

Though I absolutely abhor the name, Domino Magazine has found a reincarnation in the form of online publication Lonny.

And if you’ve ever wondered what the inside of a jewelry box looked like if we could all fit in it – well, this would be it. They even play jewelry box music during lunch.

The creator behind one of my favorite graphic design blogs, Graphic Exchange, has some photo prints and stickers for your walls on the site Harmonie Interieure. I love these images and find myself constantly gravitating towards this derelict yet beautiful and emotive style of design – it’s an especially welcome contrast to the IKEA-esque modern and kitschy styles that are very popular.

I love love love the lavish interiors of the Agent Provocateur stores, like this one designed by O’Neil Langan. You can actually view all of the store interiors on the website (nice!). Here are two more that I like…
