Carrie's Bed in Sex in The City II

Did you see Sex In the City II this past weekend? We thought it wasn't as bad as the reviews said it was... Seriously, don't you think the critics take this movie a bit too literally?  After all, the movie is all about the clothes and the fantasies...<br /><br />Anyway, did you like the bed in Carrie's and Big's apartment? We do. And we know exactly where to get it too.<br /><br />The bed is made by Vanguard Furniture and you can see it here (it is shown as tufted but it's an optional feature.  You can get it untufted plain as shown in the movie.  The nail heads can be changed to polished nickel  as well).<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.vanguardfurniture.com/uploads/products/images/vpdoucsbtv_1108_med.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" height="400" src="http://www.vanguardfurniture.com/uploads/products/images/vpdoucsbtv_1108_med.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />The fabric, which is what made the bed, is by Kravet Couture and it's called Velvet Gate, pattern number 29868.  Shown in the movie in black/white, it is also available in other colorways. The fabric is a linen/velvet combination. Very, very pretty in person.  You'd love it.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.insidefabric.com/images/Product/large/Kravet-Couture-Fabric-KR-29868-81.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gu="true" height="320" src="http://www.insidefabric.com/images/Product/large/Kravet-Couture-Fabric-KR-29868-81.jpg" width="276" /></a></div><br />The fabric is priced at $149/yard but you can get it for $104/yard at the <a href="http://www.insidefabric.com/m-5-kravet-fabric.aspx">Kravet fabric</a> section on our site. Enter the pattern number "29868" (the quotation marks is recommended for precise search) and you can see all the colorways available.

Beautiful Antique Reproductions from Eloquence Inc.

We don't see new vendors very often in the last few years. We imagine starting any new business, and especially home furnishing business, is tough. This is why we were so happy to see a new one that we really like at the High Point show -- Eloquence Inc. <br /><br />Based out of Santa Monica, CA, this company makes antique reproductions that are really, really pretty. It's the kind of furniture that you want to have if you were living in, say, an Ialian villa or something. Although in Los Angeles, where we have many Spanish Mediteranean homes that were built in the 1920s, these would look amazing as well.<br /><br />Here are some samples:<br /><a href="http://www.blogger.com/"></a><span id="goog_306932623"></span><span id="goog_306932624"></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/2403_9151_lg.jpg&w=500" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/2403_9151_lg.jpg&w=500" tt="true" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/1758_5934_lg.jpg&w=500" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/1758_5934_lg.jpg&w=500" tt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/2248_8466_lg.jpg&w=500" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/2248_8466_lg.jpg&w=500" tt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/2297_8734_lg.jpg&w=500" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.eloquenceinc.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/gallery/2297_8734_lg.jpg&w=500" tt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>To see the complete line, visit the company's <a href="http://www.eloguenceinc.com/" target="_blank">web site</a>.

So pretty...

We saw this picture from Vanity Fair today and we just love it.  It's under the slide shows titled "Oscar Moms".  The picture is of a young Audrey Hepburn pushing a baby carriage (were baby carriages this big in the sixties?).<br /><br />We also just finished watching a couple of episodes of  the "Real Housewives" series and thought about the contrast of how the women look there vs here.  Enough with the Botox, hair extensions, bad French manicures!<br /><br />Doesn't Hepburn look so beautifully natural? <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/images/hollywood/2010/05/oscar-moms-02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.vanityfair.com/images/hollywood/2010/05/oscar-moms-02.jpg" tt="true" /></a>Image courtesy of <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/" target="_blank">Vanity Fair</a></div>

Small Businesses Are People Too...

A friend of ours who runs a small drapery wrote us an email to vent about a particularly nasty client of his. The woman was referred to him by a friend.  She insisted on meeting early in the morning, so to get to her house at 10am in LA traffic, my friend has to leave his office at 8am.  He spent a couple of hours the night before picking out fabrics for her.  Once he got there, she proceeded to tell him that she only wants to have someone measure the windows for her so that she can buy the window treatment over the Internet.  Mind you, she wants to have the measurement done for free!  <br /><br />Another friend of ours owns a restaurant in San Francisco.  We don't know if you know, but this is a particularly trying time for the restaurant business.  Our friend is struggling to survive.  At any rate, there was this group of four young guys.  They ordered a noodle dish and the dish had a tiny thread (that was used to tie the dry noodle together).  My friend apologized and made a new one.  When the check came, they demanded that the whole meal, including 2-3 bottles of wine, be comped!  My friend explained that that is not possible, but she would comp them for the appetizers.  They proceeded to stomp off and left the waitress no tip.  Then wrote a Yelp review about it.<br /><br />One recent customer of ours ordered $4000 worth of merchandise, then proceeded to cancel/return/refuse 80% of them, leaving us with restocking fee, shipping fee and opened merchandise that we now have to salvage.  <br /><br />Which leads us to the question, is common decency dead?  Do people feel that merchants exists to be abused and used?  Is common courtesy only goes one way-from the merchant to customers but not the other way around?<br /><br />If a customer experiences bad service, and we have many times ourselves, there are many outlets they can vent to.<br /><br />Yet if a merchant gets used/abused like this, all we can do is vent privately.    Yet the same customers will go elsewhere and repeat this deplorable attitute to other businesses.  Most small businesses that we know, especially retail/restaurants are working fingers to the bone to survive day to day.  Having this type of customers just kill us.<br /><br />We wish sometime that people understand that businesses are people too.<br /><br />PS We do have a lot of many good and amazing customers that we just love.   To them, we say thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
