Dear Blogfriends, I know what you are going to think when you see this post today! Here she goes with the open plan Living Room Images! I like it! It's not in our Portuguese culture you know... it's like a secret campaign I'm having out here!! I also love the gray lacquered kitchen cabinets and the chevron Rug off course. Notice how this rug is important in this room to make it all work together?!

Queridas Blogamigas, eu sei o que vão dizer hoje quando virem este post! Lá vem ela outra vez com imagens das cozinhas abertas para as salas!! Gosto mesmo, o que é que querem que eu faça! E neste caso claro que adoro os armários lacados em cinza e o tapete zig-zag!! Reparem como este tapete faz com que todos os restantes elementos resultem.














Gotta see the tall chevron by Caitlin Wilson textiles we have at the store. 
They are gorgeous!

Têm de ver pessoalmente as novas almofadas zig-zag da loja da Caitlin Wilson Textiles.
São lindas e existem nos formatos 50x50 e 40x60.

So many good things waiting for me in the office! * Tantas coisas giras à minha espera no escritório!

I feel like a little girl on Christmas day every time I'm away from the office and I find so many great things on my desk when I get there! Among a great pile of things I found some awesome things;

The Love posters arrived for the Querido Store! They are from MadeByGirl and it's Love at fist sight. They are gorgeous and received not only the aqua, the gold and the silver but Jen also sent me the pink ones!! She is absolutely amazing this woman! If you have not read her post today you gotta do it  (here) because it's absolutely inspiring!!

Fico sempre que nem uma menina pequena no Natal, quando volto de férias e tenho a minha mesa cheia de coisas fantásticas! No meio de uma grande pilha havia algumas coisas fantasticas;

Os posters LOVE da MadeByGirl...
...que eu adoro, e que são um verdadeiro AMOR... à primeira Vista! Não só recebi as versões em aqua, em dourado, em prateado, a Jen também enviou em Rosa! Ela é fabulosa e se ainda não leram o post dela de hoje, vão até ao blogue dela e leiam (aqui) porque esta sra. é fabulosa e inspiradora!!




 A present from Megan Hess, herself!!

Remember the post I did about Megan Hess when I discover her at Adore, sometime ago?
As you must know she is very talented well known illustrator who already did work for such important clients like; Vanity Fair, Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Tiffany and Co., Vogue and New York Times.
It is absolutely rewarding to receive such a beautiful present from the artist herself with a card thanking me for the post I did on her work! How about that?! My jaws dropped when I saw the beautiful print she sent me! One of my favorites - the Tiffany and Co. one!
I'm Speechless!

Um presente da Megan Hess - ela própria!!
Lembram-se do post que fiz há uns meses quando descobri a fabulosa Megan Hess na ADORE?
Ela é uma ilustradora famosa que já fez trabalhos para a Vanity Fair, Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Tiffany and Co., Vogue, New York Times e alguns dos melhores designer's do mundo da moda.
É absolutamente recompensador receber um presente da própria senhora artista, com um cartão escrito por ela, a agradecer o meu post!! E esta éin?!! Fiquei literalmente de queixo caído quando vi que para além do cartão havia um presente da própria - um dos meus posters favoritos! O da Tiffany and Co.!! Estou como a frase mais ouvida do Querido Mudei a Casa no momento da reacção... estou sem palavras... estou sem palavras!!


 A present from my assistant Bruno Pacheco.
One of my assistants was traveling arrownd Europe this August and brought me a very inspiring book about 50's design. I love to get books for presents. Just LOVE it!
Off course it was beautifully wrapped in green and with a white ribbon and a little card all made by Bruno!! Thank you so much Bruno!

A huge pile of beautiful fabrics to die for!
For the latest pillows in this collection 'Tropical Seaside' at the store!
They are beautiful! If have not visited us you gotta run (if you are near lisbon) to the store because these are the last shipment of a limited edition. This is the stock reinforcement for our store sales champions - pillows!

Uma enorme pilha de tecidos lindos de morrer!
Para as últimas almofadas desta colecção 'Tropical Seaside' da loja Querido!
São lindos! Se ainda não foram à loja corram porque estas são a última remessa de uma edição limitada que já veio reforçar o stock das campeãs de vendas da loja - as almofadas!!




 I'm a bit ashamed but I confess...
I bought another bubble one, this one green. I already have it in turquoise and Coral but could not resist this one. Ordered it by mail and here it was waiting for me.
I'm in a green mood and I'm going to use it all winter!!

***
Tenho vergonha mas confesso...
Comprei mais um colar bubble em verde para juntar ao azul turquesa e ao coral!!!
Quando vi este não resisti e cá estava ele à minha espera. 
Veio pelo correio direitinho até mim!!
Estou numa onda de verde e acho que vou usá-lo todo o Inverno.

I have so many exciting projects to get back to...
Gotta go now.
Take care

Tenho muitos desafios interessantes em mãos...
Tenho que voltar ao trabalho.



Até Amanhã
