For me, the table has lived in and traveled from a sleek modern high rise flat, to a deco period townhouse, and has adapted easily between settings, always the biggest personality in the room. In its current study, it sits in the middle of a spectrum of blues, an idea to create a feeling of nature, water, sky,  without concern for matching hues as nature doesn’t seem to mind when the leaf is a different shade to the grass… As with any endeavour, follow what you love and, make it your own.

As a designer we really admire, Tory Burch is a woman whose style tips have come in handy many a time when it comes to choosing anything from a bikini to a black tie outfit. Known for applying her same signature and extremely sleek aesthetic to our wardrobes for quite some years, she has now turned her hand to homewares, creating a collection of home accessories inspired by some of her favourite things she has picked up around the world over the years as well by her family home she grew up in. The results are, as one would expect, chic, sleek and just a little bit retro. Here, she gives her top tips on how to approach accessorising your home. 

 

  • When decorating or setting a table, I love mixing colors and patterns or using different shades of a single color. The combination is casual but elegant.
  • Pillows are an easy way to introduce color, texture or a graphic element to a room. They can also warm up any space and I love pillows that have humorous sayings—there is usually a great story! 
  • Interesting objects give a room dimension and can be wonderful conversation starters when you’re entertaining. I love finding unique pieces from wherever I travel. 
  • I like to use interesting pieces that bring together form and function—from my Imari vases or handpainted Italian pottery to a unique bar set and coasters.
  • I have many framed photographs of my friends and family at home. The pictures remind me of the good times we’ve shared or of how much my boys have grown over the years.
  • Coffee table books are a great addition to a living room. I stack groups of them on a wide range of subjects—our guests are always entertained.
