Do you know Toad Hall?

I thought you'd be interested in this (Mary). This is the Beall's property in Tennessee called Toad Hall as seen in Architectural Digest. Suzanne Kasler did the designer (she also did Blackberry Farm), and Jack Davis was the architect. Both Kasler and Davis are really good at making new homes look old.

Setting the style

The most sought-after Houston interior designer easily is Pam Pierce. She truly has a cult following here. Pam Pierce pretty much sets all the trends in high end Houston interior design very much like Suzanne Kasler does in Atlanta. Here are some images of her work from her new website:

Help me do this 'do

Please help me do my hair like this for the weekend, and my wedding, and that dinner party I'm sure I'll be invited to soon, and any other event that requires me to look incredibly chic.

Like, Love, or Hate?

I feel like the thing with trends is you either like 'em, love 'em, or hate 'em. So how do you feel about clogs? Elle calls them 'controversial'; Rachel Zoe calls them one of the hottest trends of the season (actually she also calls them controversial as well...) What do you think?

Kors Michael Kors, Shopbop

My personal verdict? Love....but I think I'd have to ease into them and wear them under wide leg jeans at first.
