Celebrity Lifestyle Designer
A week ago Friday, Nathan Turner hosted a Spring Bazaar for industry insiders from his divine and diverse antique shop.
In a city that still seems a little sleepy these days it was a wonderful two day event that featured four vendors and their distinct wares. 
The lovely Minnie Mortimer showed her first line of clothing which was very young and preppy.
Carolina Irving, the one time style editor for Home and Garden Magazine, showed her new line of home fabrics and Irving & Fine clothing line. 
Her unique beach cover-ups were fresh, current and offered in great color combinations of turquoise, green and coral. Apologies for the blurry shot taken from my IPhone.Legge & Braine were featured with venetian glass bracelets, cuffs, rings and necklaces. All the pieces were hand blown in Italy and are only available in London and at this two day event at Nathan Turner's shop.
There were also treasures from India, truly the most beautiful jewelry I have seen in a long time.
The quality of their gold was some thing you would see only in Florence Italy on the Ponte Vecchio Bridge. 
Raw diamonds, mixed with hand crafted gold. Some of the pieces looked like antique treasure. Seriously, it was the kind of jewelry you could find yourself getting into trouble with - one piece just isn't enough. Treasures and Jewels by Vinesh flew in from India just for this event.

This shot makes me want to reorganize my coffee table.
I still can't get enough of Suzani's.
It was a star studded evening co-chaired by Mary McDonald and Nathan Turner, featuring some of my favorite designers including Michelle Nussbaumer, Waldo Fernandez, Martyn Lawrence and Peter Dunham. 
The Historic mansion, which is one of the last surviving Los Angeles homes from the Great Golden Age was transformed into an amazing showcase of glamorous architecture and contemporary design. 
Each designer was given a separate room and the result was stunning.
Congratulations to Veranda editor-in-chief Lisa Newsome on a remarkable evening. 
The Greystone Mansion will be allowing tours of “The Great House” designed rooms through the 16th of November. 
The $30 admission is worth the price to check out the work of more than 25 top designers in this magnificent home.
