Here are two clever ways to incorporate upcycled wine bottles into your home. The Wine Sphere Chandelier from Wildflower Organics is a delicate glass globe dangling from heavy gauge wire. The Antiqued Mercury Demijohn Wine Bottles from Mothology add a bit of gleam and glamor to any space.

Looking for an excuse to imbibe a ridiculous amount of spirits? Enjoy the pleasure of at least twenty bottles of wine, add handfuls of taper candles, and you have everything you need for a sultry and flickering centerpiece. It isn’t often that preparing for a gathering is as amusing as the dinner itself. Cheers!

I am always drooling over, swooning for, and lurking on This Is Glamorous. This flawless blog by Roseline Lohr is bursting with gorgeous, feminine, and (of course) glamorous interiors, photography, and fashion.

And every now and then, while I peruse, something makes me exclaim, “This is Glamorous and GREEN!” That’s right, this award-winning design blog and place of beauty is sprinkled with little doses of green allure. Roseline has featured several eco-chic products (I am completely taken with these decanter pendants), but don’t be limited to this category alone – there are lots of stunning sustainable interiors and fashions, like this dwelling in Greece. The images in this post (as seen on This is Glamorous) are from the private residence of Marilyn Katsaris, and it’s stunning. I wonder if she takes reservations?!

These pictures make me want to visit Greece, bask in the soft blues and tender greens. For now, I will have to settle for visiting This is Glamorous, basking in the gorgeous views and soaking up a delicious dose of Roseline (well, soaking up everything really).

Brace yourself. Your eyes are seconds away from falling on an interior simultaneously wearing composed white walls and a chaotic chromatic rush – radiant pockets of vivid hues embellishing a blank shell. This bold serving of design is the London flat of Liza Giles. Ms. Giles has borrowed brilliant color and feminine details from her profession as a senior designer and stylist for Designers Guild.

Ms. Giles has arranged isolated tufts of seemingly unrelated elements that coalesce for a sense of overwhelming cohesion. Each vignette is a gathering of shiny new objects and flea market charms (which, by the way, has me yearning to locate her blissful flea market resources). Once again, James Merrell‘s photography has flawlessly captured endless design details with his talented lens.

This flat literally sings to me; gushing and admiring comes easily when the space is this perfect. I still remember the first time I set eyes upon this interior. Love at first sight. Every time I devour these images I find a new detail that makes it even more endearing (like the unassuming charcoal lace quietly dangling over the living room window). I would move in immediately, forsaking all personal possessions and arriving with only one suitcase and one husband. I have adored this space on my personal (humble, little) blog more than once. I still love it.

I am smitten with the sense of unintentional variety laced with deliberate eclecticism. The subtle whispers of color (through muted artwork) adjacent to the not-so-subtle shouts of color (reflected through gleaming metallic teal wallpaper) form a palatable, delicious tension. All this contrast is balanced into tranquility by the overwhelming silence of stark white walls, floors, and ceilings.
