Linda Of Simply Seductive Shares Her Favorites

Today's guest is from one of the most gorgeous blogs you'll encounter.  Linda of Simply Seductive has a way with words and exuding subtle style.  I pretty much leave her blog in a trance like state of mind on a daily basis.  And I'm honored to introduce Linda here today as the next guest in the "designer's favorites" series.  Trust me, you're in for a treat.  This one is one of my favorites.

{Hello, Linda here from Simply Seductive. It is a pleasure to be part of Chassity's wonderful guest feature. Following are just a few of my favourite things around our home... enjoy, xo}
{I simply love this rug. We bought it for our current home and it graces our living room... the colors, the print and the size is perfect.}

{this capriz shell chandelier was bought almost seven years ago, and I still admire it.  At the time, it was quite a feat to have it imported from my sister-in-law's American cousin before the style became trendy.  I'll go to great lengths to get something I want!}

{although I love stripes, especially black and white, this photograph is really about the brass stool that my husband and I purchased at an antique store for a mere $30.00.  I plan to recover the seat soon.}

{recently purchased lovely gray Mongolian wool pillows from Haute Look.  They look great on our ivory leather Barcelona chairs.}

{I truly adore this painting, a gift from my husband's aunt who was a former Canadian foreign official, working in Senegal, Africa for many years... we visited her and had the most wonderful two-week vacation!}

{recently took up cooking since becoming a vegan last March and received this long-time coveted cookware for my birthday in September.  Cooks absolutely lovely.}

{p.s. Thank you, Chassity for reaching out to me and for including me to be part of your lovely blog!}

I told you it was a good one.  Aren't her loves divine?  I adore that she went to such lengths to have that capriz shell chandelier.  And the copper cookware is absolute art.  I'm way too intimidated to have such a set.

Thank you so much to Linda for stopping by today and sharing a peek into her home.  Be sure to visit her blog, Simply Seductive.  Prepare to be seduced.

Love the copper cookware! It looks so much more luxurious than what I typically use, and makes me actually want to cook.
