Estee Stanley

I love all these rooms by Hollywood stylist and interior designer Estee Stanley, designer of the oft-blogged homes of actresses Claire Forlani and Rashida Jones. They look so livable. And all have such an amazing mix: a little Bohemia, a little natural, a little glamorous. Enough casual to keep them comfortable. Very LA, right?


Look at the pale blue piano!


A comfy, upholstered ottoman for a coffee table and look at that chic little desk by the window. The perfect place to write thank-you notes.



One day I'll have a little breakfast nook, with those French cafe sidewalk chairs. And love the pair of pendant lamps.



So many comfortable seating options.


Classic, slightly rugged table, chairs to cocoon you, an amazing cabinet to corral your table linens and flatware.

Her website, here, has plenty more eye candy. And check out the street names of her projects: Mansfield Avenue, Wonderland Avenue, Wetherly Drive- all so stirring and romantic.

Estee herself is the picture of glam, with plenty of celebrity friends. Here she is at her wedding:


What a dreamy dress!
