Dear Rach:
I love your show and happen to think that you are BANANAS. Your fashion styling is impeccable, spot-on and always uber fashion forward. However, your interior styling needs some serious help. I die, literally.
I know you put a lot of stock in your new assistant, Jeremiah Brent, who has some interior design experience, and I agree that he is adorbs to look at, but lemme tell ya, hmm how to say this, umm well…HE SUCKS.
I know he was under a time deadline and you and Rodge love clean, white and glam, but he HAD NO BUDGET, and this is the best he could come up with for your dining room?
No rug, no fabric, a builder’s light fixture. Really? YAAAAAAAAAAWN.
May I suggest….
Which is still white and black with pops of yellow, but is way more glam, warm, and sophisticated and not THAT complicated. Bloggers DIY floors like that everyday. See what I mean, girlfriend?
Moving on to your living room. Le sigh. It has some nice features like the tufted sofa with nailhead trim, but the lamps are the wrong scale and look straight out of Homegoods. And I happen to detest the overgrown bean bag chairs, SO. NOT. GLAM. Are window treatments too much to ask for?
How about this? Which is way more sophisticated, not THAT complex, yet still simple and chic….
And finally, the library/ study. Sweetie, this is just plain sad. Couldn’t Jeremiah find more furniture for the room? Shoot, head on over to Ikea. The bookshelf styling, well, isn’t. This room needs some oooomph, like stat.
You need something like this where you can relax, read your fashion mags and gossip with Kate Hudson:
Clean, bright, warm, functional, simple, inviting.
So, Rachie-poo, as cute as he is, Jeremiah ain’t cut out for interior design. Call me. We’ll chat and get you pointed in the right direction. In no time, your house will be EVERYTHING. But I can’t promise that I will get along with Joey and Rodge — they are serious divas.
xxoo, ada
P.S. I miss Brad. Like, a lot.
