Family Fridays: Loft Living in Greenwich Village

A new series for you to enjoy every Friday. A pleasure for me to share with you my favorite family spaces, where kids and good design can live happily ever after.

Hope you like it!

Camping in the City

We love having a teepee at home, and I think I might actually love it more than the kids. They add such a fun statement to an adult decor, and come in quite useful to hide all the toys when there's a surprise visit. 

Ours is in the living room. We went for the classic white canvas fabric and it fits really well into our minimalist style. So on friday evenings, we'd prepare smores by the fireplace and then make up stories about wolves and rockets in the teepee. It's impromptu camping without having to plan ahead after you've had a long week of deadlines at work and suddenly realize it's the weekend.

Lately, I've been trying to find an excuse to get a new teepee. Why you may ask? Because this new one from Land of Nod is just oh-so-irresistible. Add a stripe to a teepee and voilà, 'I die' like Rachel Zoe would say.

Maybe we should get a teepee for each kid, just to be fair. What do you think?

Words of Wismom (WOW): Don't miss Land of Nod's first-ever pop-up toy shop in Soho, NYC to complete your holiday shopping. 

PS: I`ll do a post soon on my favorite teepees. The options are amazing since the days when I first got one. They make great gifts too! We got ours from my brother when he was living in NYC. Merci Frérot!

Fridays Were Made for Denim

hey it's friday, which means for the lucky ones among us it's Denim Day at work.

here's one of my can't-fail looks, the jean and cinched jacket combo (the wavy brushed hair is an extra super-mom point).  It always comes in handy on a morning when the kids decide to take the slow lane in the morning routine and I have an 8:00 am meeting at the downtown head office. You may substitute the light jeans for dark jeans for a more polished look.

emmanuelle alt + thesartorialist = the perfect winning combo for a fabulous first post.

Words of WisMom (WOW): Before going into the meeting, make sure to check the kids didn't wipe their nose on your shoulder when they kissed you goodbye this morning. 

have a great weekend and welcome!
