I met two of The Designer Guys, Tommy Smythe of Design Inc. with Sarah Richardson plus a few more celebrities at the Interior Design Show in Toronto.
I saw lots of fabulous design ideas and products. Stay tuned!
sounds like you really enjoyed yourself:) i thought it was ok, nothing too different from the others in previous years. it was nice seeing and meeting a few of my favorite designers tho. my friend used to work with the designer guys so it was nice seeing them again, plus i talked to sarah richardson as well for bit and tommy was there on sat to represent design inc.
I just came back from IDS08 too. I met Sarah Richardson and she waa real bitch. I also don't like her new bob. And apricot will never be a trend, Miss I Live Off the Grid.Tommy on the other hand was a delight. Small enough to put in your pccket and cute enough to eat, he posed for pictures and told great stories.In other news, the waste of space Deisgner Guys were also there with their scarves and pompous champagne flutes. Their design live screen was basically a big computer. Way to design boys.Speaking of Designer Guys, where were the original duo -- Stephen and Chris? Guess they were too busy being fabulous.In closing, I love Tommy. He told me it was good to be loved.P.S. I am high as I write this.P.P.S. I have a 420 boyfriend who is 23.P.P.P.S. I am also in phone love with a 50-year-old prof who went to school with Karim Rashid.P.P
Jenn Lee: The year style is more a continuation of what is going on over the last couple of years. I did not went at IDS since a few years ago. I enjoyed seeing the difference with the Montreal's equivalent which is SIDIM.
The day after the IDS. Where do I begin?Today was a day of amazing things just happening or appearing to us.Our morning started with attitude from a parking attendant who decided to show up for work today. Lady, you're lucky you didn't have nuts, or they'd be squished by now.Spent the morning touring some design stores. If anyone is interested, the dude at Up Country apparently got some action on the weekend and is anxious to give out some good deals.After our in person meeting with Sarah Richardson yesterday, we went to find her "houses." First stop was the house she redid. It wasn't worth the trip -- pretty disappointing, but the train was a nice touch. Also? I can't believe the place sold for over a million. The we went to find her real house. Not what you'd expect, given her style.Major celebrity sightings today, including Michael Angus from Angus & Company, Trish Magwood, Bonnie Stern and Ray Staples. Evening was capped off with sighting of all five Spice Girls.Tomorrow our stalking continues with a Posh meet and greet.P.P.S. Trish Magwood? Put on some makeup -- you're looking pretty hagard.
